I'm starting a month and half catalog shoot. Shooting 2-3 days per week. In the past five years or so it's been in my studio but this year the company decided it would be best if we shot closer to them. I rented a space down there, moved one of my camera stands and some lights down and set up shop. The company is located in a small sleepy coastal town thirty miles down the coast. A beautiful drive along a highway that clings precipitously to the coastal mountain range that end right at ocean's edge. It's a mini Carmel to Big Sur drive for any of you that have taken that.

So I have this plan to try and get in some shooting for myself each day, mostly getting up earlier than necessary and stopping along the way somewhere along the route.

From the first day. Still in San Francisco, right off the top of Hiway 1 looking back into the Westlake District.
And from this morning....in Princeton by the Sea looking at a field of Brussel Sprouts.

oops...A75

Can you elaborate a bit on the curves? the look is so soft yet not "washed out". Maybe you can start a new Zone System for the digital era... (do they have a Clickable Smilies for "envy"?)

YES Curves only, but a bit of your taste too

That is why I asked also.. I thought they were slightly HDR'ed or Shadow and Highlights was definitely brought up a bunch.
Looks good, Natural no, but good..:+}

I think this is a good time for a ethical declaration:

No model (or rat) was hurt during this production!

It's been a while since I've shot something that I would like to post but here's a couple from yesterday that worked out well I think. Jim

As always, beautiful work. A question though - was this taken with your Mamiya 28mm lens?

Cheers

Thanks Simon, The first shot was the 28, the second the 35. Usually when I have two cameras set up I try only to move the back from place to place. Jim

HarperPhotos · « **Reply #155 on:** September 27, 2008, 08:32:47 pm »

Gidday Jim,

Great to see you are still using your Mamiya 35mm lens.

When I got my 28mm lens I was going to sell my 35mm lens but I still think it is a superb lens so I decided to keep it.

Personally it doesn't deserve the negative criticism some photographers have slug at it.

Your second shot clearly show its talents.

Cheers

Simon

During the first 4 days of the Photokina I was demoing on the Leaf booth with the Leaf AFi-II 7 and Leaf AFi-II 10 (what a detail, stunning), although the lighting conditions during an exhibition are terrible and it's hard to judge the way the light will behave I loved these shots and therefore post them online.

Greetings,
Frank
