Another Flower (duh)

Shot with a 18-200mm zoom lens at 200mm at f6.2, 1/30 and ISO 800

Danie Portrait

A decent portrait of a beautiful subject shot at 100mm, f/5.6, 1/60 at ISO 400 with flash.

I hate to reveal secrets but i shot this indoors next to a window with some indirect sunlight and a reflector for fill. The background is a yard of black velvet fabric and no it wasn’t raining in my apartment, i just used a few spray from a spray bottle.

A Self-Portrait

This is my try at the trendy at moment, high-contrast portrait style.
