It all kinda started off with a trip to the Stl. I went out to that fine lil city with Pgen and we visited the Art Museum, Sculpture Park and the Loop. It was really a fun day, got to scout around and really work up some ideas for a shoot I want to go do over there. Still hopin it'll happen this month but we'll see... Maybe working in the cold of november will be cool too? Just not to sure bout the Nimh's and the Flash Batteries.... While the Magnesium bodies of the Canon's make em robust and uber beastly they also have a tendency to catch cold and well batteries plus cold = short shoots. Really want to pull of a Fashion/Coat shoot some urban/grunge life style photos ya dig? On with the pictures :)
Some of the Group before we rolled out around the loop
Sculpture Park
Dinner or so
Then last week entered the fun of being an engineering student.... Redneck Hottubs baby! We built a make shift backing board to fill up the bed of Mikes' truck. For the heating unit Vs 1.0 did something but not as effective as we'd like. We used some copper tubing intertwined with the Exhaust manifold and a submersible pump but it just wasn't enough. Even with putting the copper hose on a grill we were loosing too much heat in the transfer hose so shorter hose and more copper might be the way to go.
Well it looks like a hot tub...
Just chillin, good food, people and well, Time
Finally the Photography... Just a little excerpt from what we did wednesday. We were using Canon flashes to learn about the FP and Second Curtain mode. Not gonna lie having a 580ex II on the 1Ds was nice, really easy to use, but I still like my older Nikon Sb's. Manual! haha. Also a photo or two from the week before when we did some studio shooting Gangsters and Mathletes two totally related Idea's right? haha man I love that class
Kelly
And then One of Kelly's shot's of me
More Kelly, Kinda blew the background but still
kinda like the image
Flash + Iso 400 and f2 and 1/25th = Bye Bye Background lol
Correctly Dialed in flash and Ambient
Wish I had bounced though, Ugh... Catchlights

Holy cripes the sculpture park is horrifying. Reminds me a bit of
bentobjects.blogspot.com
but this takes it to a waaayyyy creepy level.
Awesome.
Suppose it'd be sweet if a bird took up residence in one of the heads.
Maybe could've cloned the no parking sign out of the Fitz logo? Could put that vanishing point tool to use. Would be difficult... hm.
Picture of Kelly reminds me of Allison Harvard... not that I watch that show.
I dunno, I think I like the blown background. After seeing technically perfect after technically perfect, a bit of attitude pops. Don't overdo it, but when done strategically... maybe?
Nice picture outside Chipotle. So Dan's hangin' with the hipsters now...
Oh. And awesome jacket.
Haha, yeah Sculpture parks are kinda errie man. So cold, dead and well towering, but soooooooo cool at the same time. Sweet site there too
Haha, that'd bee too funny and a lil spooky too
Well you sir have made a challenge, Off to CS3!
Lol, I'm not going to ask or go into the subject of your tv selection or that I condone or applaud your well roundedness but I will say I can see the resemblance.
Yeah it's kinda cool, definitely a thing I have to watch on overdoing it like you said. The fun of this thing we call art right?
Hahaha.... I guess I do have a few hipster friends lol.... don't worry I have EE and ME and IE friends so I'm kinda like and engineering kid lol
Yeah I love that thing, so old and well I gotta fix a few things such as pockets but gotta love Navy issue hand me down through the family Peacoats
