Yoga Snaps

Here are some photos from yesterday...
I had 2 AB800s behind a white backdrop facing the camera and I was using the 17-40mm
I think they were all shot at f/4 :-)

First I have to say... "GO HER!" My old crusty self would break in half if I ever attempted yoga. LOL :)

I think the shots are very nice and I am beyond a rookie when it comes to lighting. SO...the only thing I can point out would be the images could use a little saturation. The flood of light washed them out a little... not a ton...just a little. Maybe a minor curves adjustment layer?

All in all... I think you did a great job. How do you like the AB800s? I'm looking in to lighting setups at the moment.

wow!how flexible!

I have to admire anyone who can get into one of those positions, hold it long enough for a photo, and then get back to a normal human position and function.....

I like the whole series of images. They show not only her flexibility but her strength. Well composed but they look like they could use a bit more contrast. The final one is a good one to end the series too.

Very cool and quite impressive :) It looks to me that you may have hit your BG with a little too much light.

Gorgeous! These would make GREAT stock photos.

It's actually printed backwards...

I'm not sure what look I was actually going for with the backlight, it was kind of an experiment. I think for photos on her website, they'll be fine, but may not look so great printed.
