    I'm glad it wasn't too cold to shoot this weekend. Used a Canon 580EX in a 14" Lumodi beauty dish. I was pleased with the results.

    Canon 50D, 17-55mm f/2.8 IS (28mm, f/3.5, 1/250, ISO 100)






    Canon 50D, 70-200mm f/2.8 L IS (70mm, f/3.2, 1/250, ISO 100)

    Sean,


    In the last shot, something about the clear seperation of subject and the far-ground gives me vertigo. I feel like she's about to fall into it.





    & nice lighting in all of them.

    Here are a couple of my own:











    This is my Canon 20D IR, with my 70-200 2.8 attached. My affection for the subject probably skews how I see it. She's a little lens shy, so I was trying to get her used to having cameras pointed at her all the time. This one came out better than I'd have expected.





    On the flip side:





    I have no affection for this subject. He was a producer at an event I was asked to shoot. I'm not sure why I'm so fond of this one.


    The above was with my 5DII and 85 f/1.2.

    I really like this one. I like the somewhat subdued backlight coupled with the strong fill. Well done!

    Last week I took spontaneoussomephotos of my lovely wife. Flash (580EX) used indirect over the wall. Camera EOS 5D Mark II with EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS USM. What do you think about the lightning and the b&amp;w editing?
    (f4.5 and 1/200)

    I like them. I really like the catchlights in her eyes (especially on the first one).
