Herrington on the Bay - 9/21/2007

Continued from this thread. I finally got home and was able to upload the SD card & batch rename. These are at random, by the way.

1. More flash than I like, but a 6PM ceremony leaves very very little light afterwards.

1. Ouch!
2. Not bad even with flash. ISO200? Dude i've shot group pics at ISO1600 on a 20D occasionally. I shoot at ISO400 as happily as ISO100 for group pics. 12mm is a bit wide but I guess you didn't have much choice.
3. Nice, but the hard line of cloud I find distracting.
4/5. Nice. Get that flash off the camera if you can. I use groomsmen or guests as as to hold lights when I need to.

1. Yeah I know. Sharp eh? Here's a band-aid. I don't really love that shot, but I don't hate it either.
2. Why bother? ISO400 is either f/8 or 1/100th, neither of which I needed...
3. Thanks. When I first opened it I was annoyed by the light on her dress, but really I think it's a good thing. It helps clarify that it's not just 2 random people on a dock. Sorry about the clouds. Next time I'm doing a similar shot I'll let the Authorities know that They need to realign the atmosphere.
4/5. Thanks again. Since it was just us three, I never thought about getting the flash off the bracket. I wanted to keep that little session as intimate as possible, not making a big production out of a light stand that coulda fallen into the water from a light breeze, or bringing more people to the scene. I really don't think I'll ever use those light stands I got. I just can't see myself setting up all that stuff for such little gain to my own eyes.
