Hey All--
Here are my shots for the August assignment. My family has a cottage on a little lake in Michigan, and my dog, Dignan, loves to "fetch" off the dock. Obviously I was limited in terms of light position in the shot of him flying through the air (difficult to mount a light stand on water), so the flash is almost direct (it was in the paddleboat with me). In the picture of him shaking off, the strobe is camera right. I wish I would've underexposed the ambient more here and bumped the flash power up, but you have to think & act fast to even catch this shot in the first place... you never know where & when he's going to shake off! The shot of him on the dock is a direct flash from camera left (cross lighting with the sun), and the fun one is just him finally checking out this flash business up close!
very cool! Nice action grab, I especially like the second shot. Nice job.

Love these. The shake off is awesome. The the jump to the ball - over water shot is killer. Can't believe you got that with the 5d; nerves of steel I tell you. Great Job Leslie!
ReplyDeleteMy fav is the shake-off, you can feel the water droplets flying, makes you want to jump out of the way. good shot.
ReplyDeleteLove them. The second one is adorable and last two are amazing.
