Still here

Had a bit of time this weekend to shoot something different. A dedicated Infrared dSLR. In this case, a Canon 10d (shhh! don't tell anyone I'm using a Canon, it's a secret between you and me) since it's been directly converted to capture Infrared only, you can use it as a normal camera, no more clunky filters or long exposures.

As you can see here, the white sections are the heat, with the darker being cooler parts. Works well also for smoothing out skin blemishes.

I borrowed a 50mm f/1.8 lens from a friend, which works well with portraiture.

It is taking a bit of time to re-adjust to the new control layout, and some things on the 10d are extremely awkward to adjust.

Trying my Hand

At a bit of portraiture. This is Monica, a young singer who needed some shots for her accounts. I had hoped to take these indoors at the Main Street Station, but those plans fell through and we took them outside instead.

They were in colour, but converted to B/W for more impact.

Nikon D2x, 50mm 1.8 lens.

Too pretty to be dead

Insider shot at a local movie theatre. She was the capture of a zombie hunter and stayed in character the entire time. She was nice enough to stop shuffling and pose for me on multiple occasions.

Wish I could find her again and photograph her without the makeup.
