I appreciate your comment, Frank. I was trying to express a lost in
the jungle wilderness vibe, and you picked up on that. Story-telling
via photography ain't easy. :-)

We found the "bamboo forest" at the base of the Scarborough Bluffs.
This tall grass stuff is 12 to 16 feet high, which was a good thing
'cause both models were close to 6 feet themselves, were in 6 inch
heels, and we were often shooting upwards.

Something about that first one that I really like.

The others are very good but there is a mystery to that one that intrigues me. 
Maybe it's that fantasy I have about a walk in a bamboo forest...

Larry's geso of Post-it notes reminded me of some shots I've been
sitting on since the spring. I was invited to be co-creator on a
creative fashion editorial project. Part of it involved custom apparel
to be made of a flexible material patterned with Post-it notes. The
basic concept was already in the head of my partner when I joined, but
I came up with the mechanics and measurements for how to attach the
material together (we decided on mid weight poster board) and keep the
outfits on the models -- thus making this my very first (and likely
last) clothing design gig. The whole project took about 8 weeks and it
was some of the most fun I've ever had in a shoot: including prep
legwork, a fitting, and actual shooting.

I'm still (!) working on my images from the two shoots but this
gallery is a small handful of works-in-progress ones.

Thank you, Derby. We were trying to contrast organic/inorganic,
straight lines against curves.

Nails: Chantelle Krupka was our very talented MUA and she did a
bang-up job on nails too. Plus we had a terrific hair stylist, Kait
Slattery who did her best to pit hair spray against 10 degree C air
and damp breezes off the lake.

I know I'm late to the party, but must say, SDM is just such a pleasure to 
use. I wouldn't normally use a 200mm at a gig, but this just arrived from 
KEH this week, so why not. Love it.

Har, thanks Joseph. I use Colorstay non-smear lippy, so probably not :)

The focus is a bit tricky, especially since the musos like to jump 
around a lot. But the 200 seemed manage.


Scary story coming up

Interesting set. Harder to get critical focus with that long lens wide

There is no off position to the genius switch.
Genius can, however, be observed as insanity.
