Stacey M


Stacey M, originally uploaded by DrFireball.

So this was the result of the first time working with Stacey. Went to the Chevin and sat on some stones fairly close to the car park. Took the one camera - canon 5dII with a couple of lenses, but only ended up using the 24-104L - did intend to use the 85f1.2 (my favourite) but could not get far enough back without falling off the rocks!

Used my portable set up - quadra rangers x2 (in crumpler gigolo 9500 bag), 2x lightstands and one camera bag. Very portable. Also used a cokin graduated ND filter.

Exif settings show - 40mm focal length, f11, 1/160. Set the camera on manual - used a light meter having metered the sky and found it to be f11 at 1/125 - then just took the ambient light down a little by using 1/160.

Typically the cool of the evening (meaning it was getting bloody cold) meant that Stacey's reddening nose stopped play.

Good evening shoot though and will return another day.

Added bonus was the little interference we received from passers by.

Kind regards

DrF
