Egg shells

I was trying to work on lighting here, but this ended up being a test shot that was very underexposed.  It gave me a chance to fuss with layers and masks in PS.

Still life: Measuring cup

Bottom view of a 1/4 c measuring cup from my favorite set.  It belonged to my Grandma Edna, and every time I cook using them it reminds me of her.

Still life

I decided that since I don't often have human subjects, I would take portraits of inanimate objects to hone my lighting skills.



Setup: the can is on a semi-reflective cookie sheet, with the main source of light (flash) to the left and reflected light (white part of my soft box) to the right.

I heart gun(NY)

I saw that on a shirt today and it made me giggle (you know, because I live in Gunny).  Here are some photographs from my walk today.  These are with my 50 mm 1.8/f lens.

Visitors on a photo shoot

Today I did an outdoor maternity photo shoot for my friend Heidi and her husband, Kevin.  While we were shooting, we had some visitors walk behind us.  I think they were trying to photo bomb us.
