Hi Jim,

Good guess car shot static on location with strobes then car jacked and wheels spun with 10X neutral density filter on camera by assistant then car removed and background shot again. The blur was done using Virtual Rig soft wear.

Nicely done. The only real giveaway that I noticed is that the foreground leaves are far too sharp, i.e. not blurred enough. In fact to get that kind of background blur, the foreground wouldn't even show up on the image. I doubt most people notice these things though :)

Hi Graham,

Interesting you mention the leaves. I shot 10 leaves plucked from a bush in my studio car park as the retoucher Dan felt that the shot needed some foreground to break the road. We tried more blur but it just didn’t look right so we both agreed with this version. The leaves in the top right of the frame where actually a bush which was just coming into frame.

Cheers

Larger.

Scott, I like the view and the light alot .  I'm distracted by the propping, it doesn't look finished enough.  My impression is that there wasn't a stylist involved, perhaps I'm wrong but if a stylist had been involved the result would have been well worth the cost.  Jim

Heh...the stylists' name was Scott Hargis...

Well, actually, my client did his own styling, and after he left I moved a few things around (like the watermelon, which started out on the bar directly in front of the camera.)

Obviously a lot of ambient light here. We scrimmed the windows 2 stops, and there's some continuous lighting in the kitchen, and strobes lighting the 3 distant spaces along the background.

I've just done this for a french designer, this was in switzerland :









I like these.  The color grading/post is really well done, something not seen that often.

Hello,

Nice shots love the second one. I was always a big fan of the Mamiya AF 105-210mm lens.

Cheers

Very nice, film-like color grading. I think it's an indication that all of us miss the film / film esthetics huh :)

Oor maybe.. Vduault, was that LF film capture?

It does look like film.  Reminds me of Mamiya 7, 65mm and Portra, scanned and with some post work.  Love it.

Graham, These look really good, it does bother me a bit that it looks as though somethings attached to her nose in the second shot (which I like the best).  Jim
