I know I committed to post even when its busy. It is so hard to do when I’m working 12 to 14 a day. I was shooting for Lifetime Products and shot this image of their “Jumping Jack Trailer”. There were several images that I liked.
This shot was take the last day at Point Dune beach in Malibu. The sun was gone so I got out the small Photoflex (http://www.photoflex.com/) mono block strobes and placed them into the tent. The light that came out the windows of the trailer worked. Combining the strobe light with a long exposure It keep us shooting for an hour after sunset.
At the beach you can not have a fire unless you hire a Fire Marshall and jump through all kinds of hoops. I choose to simply put a strobe head into the metal fire ring that we bought at OSH and cover it with a red gel. It works quite nicely. I might retouch a flame into the fire ring to make it look better but don’t feel like it’s a must.
I hate to stop shooting when there is a chance something exciting will happen. This shot is a good example. The day was gone and we had been shooting for a long time but there was still light in the sky. I just have a hard time walking away when there is even a little light left. Strobes keep me shooting so I use them. I’m loving my new camera the Canon 5D Mark 2. It is sharp and the images look great. I will start shooting HD as soon as I can. Life tis good. Until next time.
