Day 6, January 7th 2012
Today's pic was a bit of a rush job. I had planned to use a photo I took of a baby possum at work, but it was a little pink and rude... hairless and amorphous.. very cute, but not.. a PAD :)
Today was flat out at work - Saturday full of consults with (luckily) a 45 minute break. I was on duty with 2 cool nurses, so the day went awesomely, for a work day.
Today's post is going to be short. I have to get my gear (and mind)ready for a baby shoot tomorrow - I have never had the pleasure of doing one, and this bub is 1 week old. One of my uni mates just had her first bub. The shoot will likely be early in the morning, depending on bub. So I have to be ready to scat at call. I'm stuffed. Last few days, a mixture of bad sleeping (going to bed at 1 or 2 am, still in Indian time!) and getting over my gut and chest bugs, I have been almost nodding off on the drive home - not good. I'm going to exit stage right, right now, tidy up my gear and my head, and sleep.
OCF info - Single YN460II in small grid directly at my back, at 1/2 power. Camera settings ios800, f/11, 1/250s, Canon 60D, 24-105mm f/4L at 24mm I'd guess. Some photoshop to make it look like an old print, sort of. Slack arse here left crap on the floor.
Oh, and this shot was one of only 2 I got before the smoke alarm above my head went off... so in answer to anyones questions, yes, fog machines set of smoke alarms, but ONLY if you are stupid enough to point them directly under the smoke alarm.. not that I know anyone THAT stupid :p
Lesson for today: we can never be too attentive to detail (but we can too easily be too sloppy).
