"kim"

<p><img src='http://acrackineverything.com/2008/11/23/thumb_kim.jpg' alt='kim'/></p> <p>me playing with the <a href="http://www.expoimaging.net/product-detail.php?cat_id=8&product_id=15&keywords=Ray_Flash:_The_Ring_Flash_Adapter">ring flash</a>. it gives the light a beautiful feel to it, but wow, it's so big, it's certainly bigger than the camera itself, and attracts a lot of attention...however, having something so big hanging off the front of my camera seems to lead people to believe that i'm either a professional or that i know what i'm doing (neither of the two are true), and they tend to get out of my way more at shows, that's kinda good.</p> <p>someone asked me what i do to the pictures in post, here's the short story for this picture: started by duplicating the base layer, switching it to overlay mode and applying some gausian blur to the overlay layer. that alone is 80% of the final effect. then there are a number of curves layers, masked to various parts of the pictures, which change the color and darken the brick wall, brighten kim's hair, and fix oscar's skin which had a really weird color due to the red ambient lights and the white flash (gels, don't leave home without 'em).</p> <p>free advice: don't drink too much home made romanian grappa. not a good idea.</p> http://acrackineverything.com//2008/11/22/scream.html 2008-11-22T00:00:00

<p><img src='http://acrackineverything.com/2008/11/19/thumb_learning.jpg' alt='learning'/></p> <p>it just dawned on me that while many people like auto-focus and auto-exposure and program mode and auto-whatever in their cameras, few people think to them themselves: &quot;i really need to put the flash on iTTL mode and leave the camera on shutter priority at 1/50s because i'll be so drunk that otherwise i'll fuck-up every single shot.&quot;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>if nothing else it's never boring.</p> http://acrackineverything.com//2008/11/18/s-bahnhof_gesundbrunnen.html 2008-11-18T00:00:00
