I bought a polarizer and went out today to chase colors of fall. I was surprised of how well the BW polarizer worked and how extreme colors and sky turned out. Pictures below with my sister included has been flashed. :)
Camera SD14, Lenses: 24-60 and 10-20. ISO50 - 100

You’re all invited to my friends very private stag party! It’s my chinese room mate from Kunming / China that’s getting married with a friend of mine. (Maria). Enjoy!
Oh, and don’t judge any lens from these pictures. Vignetting IS my doing. ;)
I took Linn out to the railway for a focus test and for your enjoyment I publish some of the resulting images. We had a nice time and rain was in the air. We had to run before we were done.
If you want full size, write a comment about it and I might consider posting. :)

Playing with ONE light
With inspiration from the One Campaign I bought a very light, light setup. I’ve been thinking about this light for many years but never had a light that worked. (too wide, too big or too strong.. most of the time too clumsy) \
\
I use two small 500w halogen lights put together, nothing else except a stand that is hung from another stand so that I can take pictures without getting anything unwanted (stand, cables etc) in the picture. This also works great for filming, thread above shows what it looks like. \
\
One problem using halogen this way (500W x 2 = 1000W) is heat. I don’t use any makeup for my subjects but I think I should. It’s too much sweat after just a short while. And people have a problem to look at me because of the strong light just above the camera.\

As always. Please look at these with a monitor showing gamma 1.8. If you’re using a PC they are way too dark. Get a mac!\
