A Boring Evening

Had a shoot with my class from BATC this evening--mother and son. We had a good location, with lots of variety, decent light, as well. The sun was behind a building and partly cloudy skies made a large out of the sky so we get nice even light, which is great for this application; I love a nice directional light, with good shadows on the face, but when kids are running around (and swinging from bull whips wrapped around sculptures Indy style) a nice big light that is always decent is a real boon. 

Yep, good location, good light. Too bad the subjects didn't have any fun; as you can see, they were pretty bored the whole time. Yep, nothing worth keeping from this shoot.

Canon EOS 7D, 35mm f/1.4 L II lens, f/1.4, 1/8000s, ISO 800. Yep, that's right: it's a Canon. We'll see how it goes, but don't think for a moment that I don't still have my Nikon!
