Today my concept was movie time 🙂 Another last minute shoot… I didn’t know how this idea came to me but somehow it did.  That’s pretty much it for today… Gotta get me some rest now 🙂 Gear: Canon 7D + 50mm f1.8 Settings: f8.0 | 1/200 | ISO 100 Strobist info: 580exii + shoot through umbrella @ 1/16 Trigger: 7D built in Transmitter Post processing: Cropped Adjusted contrast and vibrance Applied a little sharpening on some areas and selected noise […]
I have always played with this setup in my head; I had a lot of other versions… Probably I will have to explore those some other day. But today, this is the one I wanted to share.  I wanted to take this picture with the sun up at the window but when I set up my equipments and started doing some test shots, it was too late. Anyway, I think without the ambient light will do just fine for this […]
Today, nothing fancy… These are water meters. I found them right in front my apartment’s door. It looks very interesting but, somehow with the lighting available, it looks a little flat, that’s why I popped my 2 speedlites, put blue gels on both of them and took some frames. This particular frame is the one I like best. Gear: Canon 7D + Tokina 11-16 Settings: f6.3 | 1/30 | ISO 200 Strobist info: 430EXII + blue gel @ 1/16 580EXII […]
On my way home, I saw that the cherry picker was on a different location and it was lowered 🙂 So I decided to give it a go! There is something with this cherry picker… could be the color; I like blue… hmm (blanked out!) It’s getting warm in Dubai lately… And the clouds are starting to disappear. Anyway, my 365 continues 🙂 How I took it: Gear: Canon 7D + Tokina 11-16 + tripod Settings: f9.0 | 60 secs. […]
Today was the toughest day so far… just nothing coming out. No ideas, no nothing.   It’s 1 hour left before day 35 starts… Then this idea kicked in. Saved by the bell 🙂 This is my Tokina 11-16 f2.8 lens, so far this is what I carry everyday with my 7D (and my 50mm f1.8mm).  This is the first time I introduced a new element on my photo… smoke 🙂 And no, this is not cigarette smoke, simply because I […]
This is my brother’s guitar 🙂 I always wanted to shoot this but I just can’t visualize it, a few minutes ago, the vision came… and it looks a lot like that 🙂 I received a lot of encouraging messages from my flickr acount and here on my blog; I really really appreciate those who dropped by and sent me a message to give out their support, that means a lot to me, I just wanted to thank you all! […]
Today was one of those days again… crunch time 🙂 Scratching my head ’till 10pm until this idea came up, wanted to give credit to my assistant for chirping a few ideas here and there and for holding the water source (the shower) for me. Indeed a great help. Would have been difficult to do this on my own. I have something different on my head but this came out pretty interesting so I guess I’m going with it 😀 […]
