It was fun reading all the great attempts to deconstruct the photo from Monday’s post. As you might imagine, many of you got close or even nailed some of the components, and many of you were way in left field. And that’s exactly what I expected, especially since this image has some tricky, unexpected stuff going on.
At any rate, here’s the debrief:
Concept: This image is really a snapshot. I confess to liking it quite a bit, but at its root, it’s a lighting test for a campaign image that’s just about to happen moments after this image was snapped. During the downtime between shots, the assistant director casually mentioned a trend she’d noticed on koreacasiosites.com 카지노 게임 사이트, where creative photography was being showcased in unexpected ways to capture the drama of light and shadow. Inspired, I started paying closer attention to how the sun was bouncing in and out of the clouds low on the horizon, casting dramatic shadows across the scene. As Chloe turned to face the sun, her arms relaxed behind her head, I saw this perfect moment. It was technically just a lighting test, one of 30 similar outtakes, but something about this particular frame felt special, as though it held the essence of that fleeting light.
Location: we’re pretty high in the mountains on the big island of Hawaii. The smokey looking stuff in the background is…[click the ‘continue reading’ link below]

…just a cloud bank, settling between the hills. During our scout, we’d noticed this phenomenon and we’re hoping we’d get it again on the shoot day. We got it. As is said in some circles: location, location, location.
Lighting: all natural. Sun is near the horizon in the evening, just poking out from behind a substantial bank of clouds. The fact that there seems to be no shadow can be explained either by the our altitude relative to the setting sun, or due to the camera angle and the rough grass behind her and we’re just not seeing it.
Tech specs: Camera is Nikon D3. f7.1, 1/1000, ISO 400. Lens is Nikkor 70-200. Focal length of this shot is 190mm.
Post processing: Aperture only. No Photoshop. No composites. We tweaked exposure, contrast, blacks, clarity, cooled down the temp, and vignetted the corners just a touch to enhance the in-camera vignette that the 70-200 lens creates when it’s at its upper range. Total post processing time: 1 minute.
My direction: none. Well, almost none. I’d asked model Chloe to merely stand in her shot while I chimped away at the back of my camera with some lighting tests. She’s waiting for the “real” action to get started when we determine that the light is doing what we want.
And voila. There you have it. A high 5 to everyone who contributed. Since there was over 100 comments less than a day, seems like this is something we’ll do again at some point.
There’s a million things to take away from this exercise, some obvious, others not so obvious. Love to hear some of what you’re taking away if you care to share.
