Here's some pics I made of night workers at a social emergency ward in Aalborg. They have five employees and 300 volunteers who helps people with (light/minor) mental problems. E.g. if your wife/husband/child dies, if you loose your job, if you suffer from a serious disease or maybe just need someone to talk to, you can call and they have all the time in the world to listen to you. Like most healthcare in DK it's free.

I stayed there for 6 hours and they had 27 phone calls and one who showed up in person to talk.

Knut is the manager. He is from Norway. Most pics are made with available light and a few with just one SB800 plus Honl grid.

Remember the sound.

June Assignment

Here is my assignment for June. My son celebrating the first day of Summer Vacation!

High speed sync using my new PocketWizards in E-TTL mode. Shot using a shoot through with the bottom half flagged.  

For the second shot, I took a more unconventional lighting approach.

Same camera settings, high-speed sync and E-TTL but instead of an umbrella, I bounced the flash off a glass candle holder sitting on the table. 

Really interesting result.
