Time waits for no-one

Time waits for no-one, originally uploaded by DrFireball.

Shot this one from the same shoot as the last - but this time used a paper roll and more of a conventional studio setup.

Lighting wise this was achieved with two El ranger quadras left and right through gridded strip soft boxes and a ranger through a 70cm gridded beauty dish as key light.

Grandfather clock is a family heirloom! Fun and games getting it on set but defiinitely worth it I hope you will agree.

Lauren was superb as usual - not often that I get the opportunity to shoot a X-factor contestant :-) - things are looking up for the rest of the year!

Enjoy

Another fun shoot today despite the cold! (Hired a heater to keep all involved comfy). This is just one of the many great shots that we created. More to come for certain.

Idea was to create an album cover/artist tear page. Started off with the Octa supplementing the natural light that was coming from all sides - metered at ISO 100 f2.2 1/125.

Shot the whole shoot with my fave lens the canon 85mm f1.2 II - so sharp with the 5dII - would love a few more focus points on the 5II but then you can't have everything - until the 5dIII that is!

Bit of post production in CS5 using a smattering of nik color efex along the way.

As usual I hope you like and please tell me what you think.
