06 Dream's Helm

Lighting Diagram

Equipment List

  • Camera: Canon 5D MkII

  • Lens: Canon 50mm F/1.4

  • Flashes: Canon 580ex & 430ex

  • Accessories: 2 light stands, 2 light brackets, 1 Westcott Apollo Softbox, a gid & a tripod!

Camera Settings

Shutter Speed — 1/80th, Aperture — F/1.4, ISO — 100.

One of you has my helm; my mask of pure dream. I crafted it myself, from the bones of a dead god. Dark & windy tonight, I thought my Apollo was going to fully take off & end up in the river. Still managed to get just the right mood from my shot, the lines from the bridge frame it nicely. It’s late so watch the video for all the details.

Alternate Shot

Amazing how much moving the back light a meter left can change the feel of the whole image.

Watch Me

You can check this shot on my flickr too (go favourite & comment yeah?), uploaded at super size so you can see all the fine details.

If you want to keep up with this project (hint: you totally do) then you should follow me on twitter & add me as a contact on flickr. #fact!

It would be cool if you also stated the ISO, shutter speed and aperture used in each photograph . (I hope that’s not asking too much)

Nice one Rick. I really like the perspective thats created from the bridge railings on both sides, points the focus directly to the middle of frame. Those bitches sure like their cat food!

@andre’martins – all that info is right next to the lighting diagram under ‘camera settings’ – the big heading :)

@David – you’re saying that people should actually *read* the post first before asking questions about further details? LUDICROUS!

Seriously though – this was fun, if a little cold. Bitches love cat food.
