"Sunset Dance"©David A. Ziser
I made this image at our Tuesday evening shoot. It had been quite cloudy with a drizzle of rain on and off all day. Unfortunately, not a great day for outdoor photography. The clouds started to clear about 6:30 p.m. and I thought we might have a chance to pull off our evening shoot. This is one of the first shots of the shoot. The clouds were breaking up just as the sun dipped below the horizon. The clouds took on this wonderful texture which served as a dramatic background for our bridal portrait. Light, of course, was supplied by the off-camera flash. No umbrella since the umbrella cuts down the light too much. You need all the light you can get for these sunset images. The rest is history - we got a great series of shots at the end of our rainy day.
Camera specs; Canon 5D Mark II fitted with 24-105mm IS lens at 55mm, F5.6 @ 1/200 second, ISO 200.
Enjoy! -David
Great images David, How far was the light from the bride and at what power? Looking forward to seeing

ReplyDeleteHi David
ReplyDeleteFantastic image as always! One thing, when you put the camera specs at the bottom of the post, could you let us know the flash setting, TTL or manual, would really heplfull!
Thanks
David you mentioned a while back that you had been given the Quantum trio to try. Have you had a chance to try it out and what are your thought especially as an off camera flash?
