<p><strong>Bella and her mask</strong><br>

My daughter found a Mardi Gra mask and was having fun with is so I snapped off a few photos of her wearing it. But then I had a little fun experimenting with textures on this photo.</p>

I used a Canon 7D with a Canon 17-55mm, F2.8 lens. I had two Canon 430EXII flash units sitting on the speakers (one stage left and the second stage right) that were triggered with a Canon 580EXII mounted on the camera using Canon's remote Infra Red system. The 580EXII was set to "master: disabled" so it merely acted as the master remote but did not contribute to the lighting of the scene. The flash that was stage left had a 1/2 CTO gel over it while the flash on stage right had no gel. I did this to unbalance the color temperature of the flash units from side to side. I shot completely manual (including the flash units) and I had my white balance set manually between 5000k to 5200K. I alternated the output of the flash units (in camera) depending on what angle I was shooting from. Also, both 430EXII flash units had Sto-Fen Omni-Bounce Diffusers on them to spread the light over a larger area.

<p>odd for sure but pretty cool (chalk writing, thin DOF). Why a strobe used?</p>

</blockquote>

<p>I often find it odd sometimes how artistic expression is lost on some people... even amongst fellow artists (or in this case photographers). I used a strobe because I thought it would add a nice touch to an other wise drably lit scene. Or should I have stuck my camera on a tripod 4ft off the ground and pointed it at a bunch of trees like a million other people do?</p>

<p>This was shot in my driveway at around dusk. My daughter was drawing with chalk and I thought it would make for some interesting photos if I got a strobe out.</p>

<p>Strobist info: Shot with a 200ws Calumet Genesis strobe shooting in a 48" octagon softbox (camera left) and triggered with a Calumet radio trigger.</p>

<p>Ken - With the exception of a little sharpening that I do to most photos there is no post processing done to that photo. It's pretty much straight out of the camera. The reason it's white balance and color seem a little off is because the stage was lit with intense LED lighting and no conventional lighting at all.</p>

<p>As for the who? <a href="http://www.justineblazer.com" target="_blank">Justine Blazer</a>... a <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/deanschreuder/sets/72157616970146913/with/5071538576/" target="_blank">local country singer</a> in my area. As for the why? Because this thread is for Canon shots and I took it with a Canon... I didn't know I needed a reason to post a shot here other than for it being shot with a Canon.</p>
