Digital 101 Lesson 8

This time of year it is a good idea to carry a large zip lock bag with you if you intend to carry a camera.  Condensation could form on the lens and even the inside of the camera from transporting it between a warm environment and a cold rainy one.  Place your camera in the bag and zip it up so that the condensation forms on the bag instead.  I would also recommend a using a UV or Skylight filter over the lens for added protection.

Another Friday Night, Another Beautiful Bride

This pre wedding exposure was made in a hallway.  The lighting accentuates the dress and her face.  A little vignetting was added to down play the background.  The main light was in another hallway to her left using a large white satin umbrella.  The fill light was bounce light from a camera attached strobe.  The net effect is a beautiful 3:1 Rembrandt ratio.
