StefanA "The D is supposed to be where the S is!"  More info | Feb 08, 2010 06:47 | #1 Well, as you know, it's pretty hard to keep an 18 month old still. I was lucky to get this. Unfortunately my 2 favorite shots were messed up by some foreground elements. On one I attempted to "photoshop" out with little success. On the other I just didn't know what to do.        80D, Canon 17-55mm f/2.8, Canon 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6, Canon 50mm f/1.4, Canon 70-200mm F/4L,Tokina 11-16 f/2.8, Canon 100-400 f/4.5-5.6, Kenko 1.4 TC, Canon 580 exII Speedlite, ebay wireless trigger, Genesis 3 light kit

Feb 08, 2010 11:49 | #5 The overexposure in his face is probably due to the PP I did. I only have 1 light for the background and that was not enough, so I tweaked the background in PP. In doing so, some of my dodging got onto the side of his face. The background is seamless white paper - which was not so seamless since I taped 2 pieces together. I had to clone some of the visible edges. The floor is 1/4" 4x8 sheet that I bought at home depot. I forget what it's called but it already comes with one side white. 80D, Canon 17-55mm f/2.8, Canon 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6, Canon 50mm f/1.4, Canon 70-200mm F/4L,Tokina 11-16 f/2.8, Canon 100-400 f/4.5-5.6, Kenko 1.4 TC, Canon 580 exII Speedlite, ebay wireless trigger, Genesis 3 light kit

Feb 09, 2010 06:07 | #9 Yeah, I am the most upset about how that turned out because otherwise it's the best shot I got. It's a mannequin head I use for practice. 80D, Canon 17-55mm f/2.8, Canon 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6, Canon 50mm f/1.4, Canon 70-200mm F/4L,Tokina 11-16 f/2.8, Canon 100-400 f/4.5-5.6, Kenko 1.4 TC, Canon 580 exII Speedlite, ebay wireless trigger, Genesis 3 light kit

Feb 09, 2010 19:45 | #12 Yeah, that's what I was talking about in my original post. I was trying to eliminate a really bad foreground element and wiping it all clean was the only way I knew how. 80D, Canon 17-55mm f/2.8, Canon 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6, Canon 50mm f/1.4, Canon 70-200mm F/4L,Tokina 11-16 f/2.8, Canon 100-400 f/4.5-5.6, Kenko 1.4 TC, Canon 580 exII Speedlite, ebay wireless trigger, Genesis 3 light kit
