Note: This site is currently "Under construction". I'm migrating to a new version of my site building software. Lots of things are in a state of disrepair as a result (for example, footnote links aren't working). It's all part of the process of building in public. Most things should still be readable though.

More Fire In The Eyes

Here's another shot of Dave with his eyes on fire. Not one of the picks, but it shows the fire even higher.

I should mention that I shot this on IR film. I was using a strobe but the exposure was a complete guess. I'm pretty sure I had never shot infrared with a strobe before and I'm positive I never shot fire in IR before.

The negs are pretty dense. They're over exposed by two stops or three stops. If I had missed that far in my guessing with digital it would not have been recoverable. Of course, when you get virtually instant feedback with a histogram, it only would have taken one or two test shots to dial in the exposure.
