Red Ring Tupperware Party, Farewell to Tuesdays (22)

I work with all guys, and naturally that means that some off the wall stuff will occur from time to time. Right now we're at war. And all the ammo is chemical weapons. Dave started it yesterday and is continuing it by bringing chili dogs for lunch. This is a war that I feel compelled to fight and the best defense I could come up with is Taco Bell. So glad I own a respirator...

Ah.. the good old days working in a shop. Try this. Guaranteed to clear a room and peal paint. Jalapenos juice from jalapenos in the jar. It's a bit hot boy boy-howdy can it amp up the chemical content.

Unfortunately that would probably kill me... Being allergic to peppers and all.

Bad idea then.

You could always go the kimchi route. That stuff is fantastic at creating hydrogen sulfide in large quantities.

I dunno...

The jalapeño thing followed by death would certainly work up a smell that would win provided you have the time to wait just a little while...

We had a guy in the shop that would eat a jar for lunch, then drink the juice. A few hours later you could not come within 20~30 feet of his workbench without gacking.

In connection with the photoschool I attend (which end in january ) we had an extra nigth with studiolighting for portraits the other nigth. This is one of my shot from that session.

Shot with 5D3 + 85 mm f/1.2L at 1.8.

Two ligths used. One up and front. One down front.

btw this was the models first time modelling. She was very patient with 8 photographers shooting in turn.

What was Alexander's due date, Harm?

Nov 29th - he was exactly 8 weeks early

Lovely Lady Tommy...

Tommy, out of curiousity, why did you go with f/1.8?

Because 1.2 is too hard to master yet I really like shallow deapth of field.

well, you mastered 1.8

So tough to work at such shallow DOF. Even using a tripod, if the model wiggles a hair, the shot is blown. Looks like you nailed the eyes in that one though.

Yes, it is hard to get BOTH eyes in focus usually. You see so many people with only one eye in focus. So you did well, Tommy!
