Dag 7: Vivi & Christian

Lørdag er en perfekt dag til at lege med fotoudstyr. I dag ville jeg bruge mit nyligt erhvervede Elichrome D-Lite-kit, og min søn Christian og kone Vivi var glade for at posere som modeller.

Her er den grundlæggende opsætning. Jeg anvender en hvid væg som baggrund, og belyste den med en 200w D-Lite it 2. En 400w D-Lite it 4 blev monteret med en Elinchrom Minisoft 44 Beauty Dish med diffusor. På min D300 monterede jeg ELS Transmitter ECO til fjernbetjening af blitzenhederne. En Sekonic Flashmate L-308S blev brugt til at indstille de korrekte eksponeringsdata. Jeg valgte en lukkerhastighed på 1/125, og den resulterende blænde var f/14.

På det første testbillede holder Vivi et grå kort som jeg bruger til at indstille den rigtige hvidbalance og derefter synkronisere alle andre fotos med den WB-indstilling i LR3.

Min D300 var indstillet til RAW ved ISO 200 og monteret med AF Nikkor 50mm f/1.4D. Den resulterende filstørrelse var 13 MB, og jeg beskærede den let, hvilket reducerede størrelsen til 12 MB. Kameraet blev håndholdt. I Lightroom tilføjede jeg kun klarhed (+44).

Brug af en digital lysmåler er en ny oplevelse for mig, men jeg er glad for resultatet. Intet formål at justere eksponeringen i LR3 overhovedet!

Two Paths - Day 64

Days are going by - time is flying - we are getting older - the world is moving. Tic Tac Tic Tac. My professional career has come to a halt and it's time to reflect about the possibilities that opens up in such a situation. It's been a month since I stopped at Strålfors and all days (and some nights) has been used to reflect upon this situation. I've chosen to follow the obvious path - find a new job - and all my network is being activated. But another path has slowly emerged - and to no ones surprise - this path evolves around photography. I'm not talking about becoming a photographer, but to become part of the industry. Tomorrow I'll fly to Stockholm to meet some interesting people who successfully has opened a photography museum in Stockholm - Fotografiska.eu - and I'm going to here about their project and journey. The photo that I shot this afternoon in the woods nearby my home symbolise the break from Strålfors and the two new paths that I've ch...

Press photographer has to face a lot of moral issues

Every year we hear about press photographers being killed while trying to capture a decisive photo and document the truth. They also have to face a bunch of moral issues while being close to death and people in need of help. In my opinion it is vital to capture a photo that can influence decisions on a large scale. But when faced with the choice of either keep taking pictures or trying to change the course of a situation by personal interaction (and maybe risk your own life), I can only imaging the moral issues a press photographer must deal with in a few decisive seconds.
