Week 48 - Baby Shower
Today was my wife Ashley's baby shower. It was a fun day seeing some family and friends and getting to hang out with the guys back at the house! But before drinking beer and watching Tiger Woods, I took the 7d and Siggy 30mm out for a spin. Just some fun detail shots to capture the event.
Can't say thanks enough to everyone for all of their generosity - our kid is already seriously spoiled!
Camera:
Canon 7d
Sigma 30mm
1/500@ F1.8
ISO 640
Strobist:
Natty Light
Objective: (Jeremy speak)
No special setups again today, just some fun with the Sigma 30. Lens rocks on my 7d. Super high contrast and shallow depth of field.
What was fun (actually sucked for a while) was creating this 'tych' in Photoshop. I downloaded this really cool extension for creating Tych panels.
Its great for blogging and other things. So I figured I with a bunch of fun detail shots I did before the shower I could put them into a fun looking layout.
It was a major pain in the ass getting it installed (all has to due with Windows 7 and 'administration' issues - Ummm, I am the administrator Windows?! ) But after a solid hour of getting ready to pull my hair out, it worked! And its a fun extension to play around with and create some fun layouts.Week 47 was a fun project I have been wanting to try for a while now. In fact, I taught it to my kids this week and we had some really creative and great montages turn out. So I had to work this into my project.
Here are the rest:
