Hi Folks!
Just wanted to post a picture of my new ride. I am really proud of this new car. This is the first vehicle the I drove out of the showroom back in February, 2011. Why do I call it my 'New Horse'? Well, my old vehicle is a Hyundai Galloper. While I love my new car and enjoy the comforts and luxuries it affords me, I miss the rough, rugged and beaten up Galloper. That car has taken me to hell and back...and is still running. What did I do with it? Well, my wife is driving it around now!
Check out my strobist style pic...featuring - Moi! after the jump....
Anyways, I took this photo while testing out some new gear in photography. While playing around, I thought I'd run in an take my own picture. So, here it is:
Strobist Info:
Picture of the setup:
2 580 EX IIs camera right
2 480 EX's camera left
Flashes fired ETTL
Shot with 1D Mark III & 70-200 1:2.8 L IS USM on a tripod
Exposure was 10seconds @ 150mm, Manual, ISO200, f8
Taken at 8:02 pm 21st May, 2011 (YES, it was pretty dark while I was shooting)
Temperature: 36 Deg Celsius (whew...hot even at night)
Location: Sharjah (near the Dubai Bypass Road), U.A.E.
Here is the original Image (cropped):
Post Production:
Slight Decrease In Exposure
Slight Highlight Recovery
Slight Increase In Brightness
Increased Contrast
Increased Sharpness (as I was not properly in focus, since I ran and barely made it to the car)
Changed colour of sky (desaturated and aded purple-ish hue - original was orange from the tungsten lights you see in the background)
Cropped to panoramic
What do you think?
Let me know
