Sunday Sleepies

I’ve spent the morning cruising the web, reading this article, that blog, skimming Facebook. The photo shoot I had scheduled for this morning fell through and I just can’t seem to get myself in gear.  Here are a few images I shot this morning.

A year of self #81 – Sunday Morning

As mentioned in the previous post, I’ve been crazy busy, and it’s not going to get much better in the months to come, so I took a little time out this morning to add another self-portrait to my project.

In the backyard on an overcast day

It’s been an unusual July – rainy and overcast in a way no one around here remembers ever seeing. No complaints from me, though. Overcast skies are just one giant diffuser.

My favorite

Jerry’s portrait session was a couple of weeks ago. He settled on his (and his mom’s) favorite images. Of the ones he picked this one is my favorite.  Jerry’s genuine kindness shines through.

DIY globe light

Take one 10 in. White Acrylic Globe with 4 in. Fitter from Home Depot, add to Einstein E640. I had to remove (saw off) the lip around the opening and smooth it a bit to get it to fit under the clips of my Einstein, but once that was done it fit like a glove and the results from my quick test are pretty nice. Obviously, I cannot use the modeling light with this set up. Strictly strobe. But the light is nice and soft and wraps nicely.

Can’t wait to try it out on a human.
