jeff d 1 Posted August 24, 2003 This is the Al Pacino of the giraffe world. This guy is in charge. Very nice Kim! great work. Link to comment
root 0 Posted August 24, 2003 If you get a chance to shoot something like this again, try a second shot with fill flash and see which one you like better. The idea is to put a highlight in the eyes without overpowering the ambient light. Link to comment
kslonaker 0 Posted August 24, 2003 Carl, the only problem was I was at least 15-17 feet away from him (he was behind a fence and SOOO tall!). I don't know that fill flash would have worked at that distance. I used spot metering to try and get the lighting right. Link to comment
WJT 627 Posted August 25, 2003 You were lucky to have that overcast sky. Wonderful photograph. You might be surprised how far a flash can travel. Regards. Link to comment
