Inuit Shaman

Liz, Shannon, and I spent Thanksgiving weekend at Dad & Deb's down in Tucson. They are collectors of very cool artwork and I have had an inclination to photograph some of it for a while now. For the first go I chose a sculpture of an Inuit Shaman carved completely of whalebone.





Strobist Info:
One SB800 fired via CLS. Flash is camera-right for the first picture and camera-left for the second picture.

1:00 in the Morning

Okay - my story is a little different tonight than it was last night. Instead of waking up in the middle of the night, I simply haven't gone to bed yet (2 1/2 more hours will make 24 awake). As such we find (gasp!) yet another installment of 'Rehash-An-Old-Photoshoot-In-The-Blog-Again'. Forgive me - I will stop the madness here. Besides, I am going to Zion National Park next week and will hopefully have some pics from the trip to post up. Stay tuned . . .



Strobist Info:
Sun camera left and two bare strobes camera right fired using Pocket Wizards. You can tell there were two flashes if you look closely at the double-shadow of her necklace.

3:30 in the Morning

So I was sleeping very peacefully this morning until about 3:00 a.m. and then 'PING', my eyes opened and that was the end of that. I tried to calm my mind by thinking of photography; didn't work - wide awake. So about 3:30 I got up and started digging back through my photos from the AZ Strobist meet in Jerome. I dug out another that I like and worked on it a bit. Anyway - now it's 6:30 and time to start getting ready for work. I hate rehashing old shoots on my blog, but I hope you enjoy this one nonetheless . . .



Strobist Info:
One strobe behind a shoot-through umbrella camera left and a CTO warmed bare strobe camera right both fired by Pocket Wizards.

The Fallen

I'm not even sure how to describe this one . . . so I don't think I will (for now anyway).



Strobist Info:
One SB800 behind a shoot-through umbrella camera left fired full power by Pocket Wizards.
