Schnee und Frost in Grau / Snow and Frost in Gray

Posted by: admin | Comments (0)
Sunday, January 24th, 2010

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.

Stuttgart in white

Rarely do you see Stuttgart in deep snow. This year it was cold enough to keep all the snow that fell these days. The D700 made it possible to take all images handheld. I used my trusty lens 17-35 f 1:2,8. This lens gives me quite a lot of bang for every shot!

Snow Walk in Gray

Our days are cold and gray. I braved the cold and went out to catch some lines in the white. Lines yellow, gray, brown, black or any color that would break the white of the snow. I mostly set my D700 to +0,7 to +1,3 to counter the white of the snow and to make the snow apear shallow.

Bischof Rein

Friday, January 1st, 2010

Ich hatte den Auftrag zwei ofizielle Portraits des neu installierten Bischoffs Harald Rein (Christkatholiken, Schweiz) zu machen. Das erste Bild mit den Insignien (Ring und Kreuz). Das zweite Bild sollte in einem kirchlichen Kontext entstehen, wo man zwar einen Altarraum erkennt, die Kirche selbst sollte aber nicht erkannt werden.

Die Bilder entstanden in der Kirche Oerlikon (ZH). Ich hatte zwei Metz 45 eingesetzt und ein Nikon SB-800. Habe den Funkauslöser von Bowens ‘Pulsar’ eingesetzt. Einen Metz hatte ich ein einer runden Schirmbox(120 cm Durchmesser) verborgen und an einem Galgen von oben festgemacht. Darunter hatte ich ein tri-Grip von Lastolite um die Schatte zu erhellen. Links hatte ich den zweiten Metz auf 1/4 Leistung. Hinten links hatte ich den SB-800, um die Konturen zu betonen.
