paul_kurian Posted July 17, 2004 Share Posted July 17, 2004 Dear friends, Last event, a Baptism, I have shoot inside a church mostly with a wide angle and aperture almost full open.I used 550EX flash as fill with a Lumiquest diffuser. I am happy with the results. Please give your comments also. This style I hear from our dear Marc Williams through photonet. Thanks Marc for your great mind to share ideas. Equipment was 10D with 24-70/2.8 lens and iso 200<div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodolfo_negrete Posted July 18, 2004 Share Posted July 18, 2004 I love the atmosphere lighting .and the flash is not even noticeable. so what where your settings ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fotografz Posted July 18, 2004 Share Posted July 18, 2004 Paul, nice shot. While it is strictly a matter of personal taste, you should know that the excessive red cast caused by slightly underexposed tungsten light sources dominating a scene, can be easily altered during post processing ... especially if you shoot RAW files. The white balance options in RAW developers usually can get it most of the way there with a click of an eye- dropper, or an adjustment of a color temp slider. Here's your shot corrected all the way. You may or may not prefer it, or maybe prefer something in-between this and your original, but you should understand that the option is available.<div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fotografz Posted July 18, 2004 Share Posted July 18, 2004 Actually, seeing them both on screen at the same time, makes me believe something in- between would better preserve the "atmosphere" mentioned earlier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nstock Posted July 18, 2004 Share Posted July 18, 2004 I also think something in between would be better. Nice lighting tho. There is one thing in this photo that is driving me nuts.. the microphone stand growing out of the mans's head! As a person who learned on, and still shoots a lot of, film, I used to have to throw shots like that away and so learned not to take them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bryce_carleton Posted July 18, 2004 Share Posted July 18, 2004 I find myself tending to agree with Nancy somewhat here. Perhaps a photo from slightly left of here, and down would have hidden more of the microphone (and chairs too, but they're not as bad in my opinion). Otherwise good with a white balance tweak!

aka eve adams Posted July 19, 2004 Share Posted July 19, 2004 what was your shutter speed and did you have any adjustments on your flash? or was it completely ttl.? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brandonhamilton Posted July 19, 2004 Share Posted July 19, 2004 The white balance problem is one distraction, also the feet missing off the closest person is a big distraction for me. I don't know why, but photographs where the subjet's feet are cut off IRK me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jack_lyric Posted August 22, 2004 Share Posted August 22, 2004 would that be the same as the color balance under image-adjustments-color balance in photoshop7? or is there a color temp available in ps7? thanks for any response. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
