BFree – Singer
Wanted to get BFree and make portraits with him for over a year now. There were always reasons why I did not work out.
Finally we got together yesterday Saturday 26. Mar. 2010.
First we went to a Pond close to Plüderhausen and warmed up. Overcast skies with sunny spells meant to get ready for changing light. So I mounted my SB-800 to my camera and set the other one on a stand behind an 80cm umbrella. The Flash was gelled with a 1/4 CTO. I wanted to give the images a warm feeling. Set the Camera to manual and used the CLS iTTL mode of the the Nikons to balance the light!
We then moved on to look for some Graffiti as a backdrop. We found this green Graffiti on an old wooden shack. The Graffiti was kind of washed away which made it look darker. I mounted on Metz 45 CL-4 in a Lastolite Umbrella Box and had it over Bernie. The second Metz 45 CL-4 was mounted on a stand to illuminate the Graffiti and Bernie from the other side. I wanted the light to be harsh and strong so I chose a high shutter speed to close off the ambient light.

Neue Weitwinkel Objektive von Nikon
AF-S NIKKOR 16-35mm 1:4G ED und AF-S NIKKOR 24mm 1:1,4G ED von Nikon vorgestellt.
Nikon AF-S Nikkor 16-35mm 1:4G ED VR Objektiv (bildstab.)
Ein Weitwinkelzoom mit Stabilisator, wird einige Blenden kompensieren. Ich liebe 35mm auf FX, daher ist das ein Zoom, an dem man nicht einfach vorbeilaufen sollte.
Nikon AF-S Nikkor 24mm 1:1,4G ED Objektiv
Wie Nikon es sagt: dieses Objektiv neue Maßstäbe in der Weitwinkelfotografie. Architektur und Landschaftsaufnahmen werden mit der großen Lichtstärke revolutioniert. Der schnelle AF wird einem viele Gestaltungsmöglichkeiten geben. Das ist ein WOW-Glass bei dem alle Gestaltungsmöglichkeiten hat. Mit der neuen ISO Zaubertüten Nikon D3s muss das eine neue Welt der Freihandfotografie ermöglichen.
27. Internationales Guggenmusiktreffen am 6./7. Februar 2010
Bin Am Abend des 6. Feb. in die Innenstadt um mich in das Getöse der Unklänge zu begeben. Wollte um die Musiker sein und nicht nur an einem Stand stehen und zuschauen. Mit laufen und den Krach mitfühlen.
Hatte meine D700 mit den Batteriehalter mit 8 Akkus ausgestattet im MB D10. So hatte ich 8 Bilder /Sek.. Meinen SB-800 mit einem 1/4 orange Gel ausgestattet. Bei iso 400 begann ich und endete bei 2500. Als Universal Objektiv hatte ich mein 24-70 f2,8.

Panorama Hohenstuifen and Hohenstaufen
The view from Hornberg in Baden-Württemberg is breathtaking. In Winter the foremost mountain Hohenstuifen looks like it had received some icing. Hornberg is a windy place and cold. I waded in 40 cm of snow to get this panorama.
This panorama was stitched using autopanopro. I shot two complete Panos using Nikon D700 and 70-200 VRII. I shot 14 images at 200mm 1/500 f10 at -1.3ev.

Schnee und Frost in Grau / Snow and Frost in Gray
Walked on the slopes of Treffelhausen on a gray day. Snow had covered the slopes for some days now. However fog had turned the trees into frosted giants and dwarfs. As my daughter was trying her snowboard I went walking in the minus degrees with a breeze in my face. I braved the cold (I just like the warm weather more) and took my camera along. I think I was rewarded with some nice images! I loved playing with the gray tomes and the whitish backdrop.
Used my trusty 17-35 and then the 70-200 VRII.
