Burgundy with ProDegustation
May 5th, 2010
At the beginning of the blog, I wanted to post a lot of things but I had little post, now I shoot very regularly and I can not find the time, it's great ... Because I have lots of topics I want to speak here, I will address them in chronological order but according to mood, and continue posting retaining the idea "one post per topic."
First: I bought a month ago on 24 mm 1.4 Nikon, basically it's a bomb unnamed, the only goal I really that hard to fully open (yes, even better my 85 1.4). I will take time to return it in a specific post, as I have already used extensively in several reports on conditions quite different. Read the rest of this entry »
The Laetare louviérois, carnival louvière 2010
March 19th, 2010
I was contacted by Lionel as part of a book project on the Carnival of La Louviere, which will be published by the company of Gilles merchants, plus a photo book, a book in fact, at last something composed of large images with a small line caption for the picture.
We had 6 photographers working on the story, I was the only foreigner in folklore, one reason among others why I had been chosen: the advantage of being outside is that we have a look "candid" on folklore. In addition, in a city where almost everyone knows, if it was my city I would have risked to spend more time talking with people that make images: there was not the case. In my case, I know nobody has to spend more time with a box in his hand a glass of beer (hey, it's an image, I do not like beer). Read more of this Article "
Elinchrom Ranger Quadra test
February 12th, 2010
For different projects (yes I know I will post more ...), I have to work increasingly with artificial light usually with a mixture of ambient light, I have already said, I like not mass (if we consider the studio as 100% artificial light on plain background) by cons, able to work anywhere, including outdoors, with bright lights and controllable (accessories) by cons I love it.
Before storing quadra, I worked with two 400W studio flashes (with integrated general) AC; quite heavy and bulky to transport, the alternative being cobras, less powerful, less coverage, less accessories by super cons versatile.
Since my desires and demands of images evolve, I inquired on the side of studio flash "portable", basically to combine something portable but able to provide enough power for me not to limit light level. Read the rest of this entry »
