I couldn’t resist the opportunity to function on Strobist, Portrait, and On-Location abilities.

Shot in our living space (economical portable studio) with my speedlights and a black sheet backdrop.

I have not too long ago been functioning hard on skin retouching using the strategies illustrated in Jason Odell’s book The Photographer’s Guide to Capture NX2.

The new workflow is causing some challenges – as the rendering on the web appears diverse than what I see on my monitor – ah to reside and understand. I am also somewhat guilty of &quotoverdoing it&quot as is frequently occurs when using new methods.

Regardless, I like this shot.

I have a extended way to go with the camera and finding out a lot more subtle skin techniques – BUT they are nonetheless far better than any point-n-shoot-ugly-flash-redeye-harshly-lit effort that I may have place forth ahead of discovering Strobist and the magic of Nikon CLS/AWL!

Forgot to get a setup shot. Sorry.

SB-800 (just to correct) shot via a modest softbox.
SB-600 (camera left about 60 degrees) shot into a 43&quot umbrella for fill.
SB-600 gelled red and fired through &quotkoozie snoot&quot for red backdrop.

Fired via Nikon D300 popup commander (set to &quot–&quot)

Lots of experimentation going on – each even though shooting and in PP making use of Capture NX2.
