I woke this morning to a large amount of Flickr and YouTube mail. Thought perhaps David Hobby at Strobist might had pointed his readers to the videos I posted at YouTube.
Sure enough, went over to Strobist this morning and found a post of David's mentioning the videos I posted at YouTube and at my Blog. Not certain if viewer are interested in more or not. Let me know if you would like to see more videos. Thanks. DT
Just another lighting and equipment test. This is a photo of my son Chris on his bike in our driveway.
The lighting was very much straight forward, a single light placed camera right. I was using a Lumedyne 800 pack with a large octabox as the light modifier.
I shot this using my Nikon D2X with a Nikon 24mm-85mm lens. I was wanting to see what kind of power or f-stop I could obtain using an 800 pack. The f-stop used was f/14.0 at a shutter speed of a 1/10th of a second. The focal length was 62 mm. I just love the camera data available with every image.
Yesterday I learned that I'll be shooting the complete annual report for a very large construction company. Their specialty is highway construction, I've been told that I will be shooting 8 to 12 projects all around the country. I'm really looking forward to this assignment and I plan to shoot some video while on assignment so I can post some it here in the blog. To see samples of the type of work I anticipate shooting on this assignment please go to Here.
I hope you enjoyed this post. To view additional work, please go to tejadaphoto.com.
I Recently found YouTube and have started posting videos there so I can post them here in my blog. Here is some video of me shooting a subject at a copper mine in Utah, the wind was blowing very hard which you can hear in the clip. I shot this job about a year and a half ago. This give you a small glimpse of shooting on location. I look forward to posting other videos of actual shoots for your enjoyment.
Here are a few more lights I'll take on assignment when the need arises. These are Vivitar 283's, Morris Mini's and Stick up lights. I will often take these additional lights with me when I know that I will be required to create some sort of control room or laboratory shot. Take a look, perhaps these tips will help you put together your own lighting kit.
This type of post is something new to me. I taped myself showing the small lighting kit that I might typically take with me on a corporate/industrial assignment. I hope you like it.
I have just returned ghost hunting with my wife Debbie at Waverly Hills Sanatorium. Waverly Hills is located just south of Louisville, KY. What a wonderful place to photograph, 160,000 sq. feet of empty space, or is it. We did not see any ghosts during our visit but I did manage to get a few nice pic's.
Deb and I were able to go inside Waverly during daylight hours to capture the following images. These where all shot with my Olympus 5060 wide digital camera. I hope to return someday to shoot with my larger digital cameras.
There are a total of 5 floors in this former TB hospital. Waverly was build in the early teens and had over 60,000 deaths related to TB. This is a view down one of the hallways on the 4th floor. The 4th floor is thought to be the most haunted?
Here is a small detail in one of the rooms.
Here is a window detail from the veranda.
Here is a view of the veranda where the patients would be rolled out for fresh air.
Another detail of a lamp on the ceiling.
This is how my one of my Fine Art images are printed. I hope to show the Waverly these prints with hopes of selling a few to raise money for the preservation of the Waverly.
