The group has swelled to about 500 members, and frequently we post a series of get togethers where people can come out and shoot.<\/p>\n<p>Camille came dressed as a warrior for this year&#8217;s Halloween theme, and we had good fun running around trying to get some shots. It wasnt until the end of the night right before wrapping it up that we thought &#8220;ok.. that place we wanted to shoot was closed.. what if we try to stand you right here and make a shot&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Initially, I wanted to make a shot of her standing by those rocks you see way behind her, but it was fenced in. I wanted one of those frames where it looked like she was waiting for a ship coming in.. but wasnt working. So.. I placed her right next to the pier we were at. Shooting manual, I really<em>really<\/em> underexposed the sky that was behind her. Once that was done, I placed a light camera right and just popped some light on her. The costume that she was wearing looked very costume-y, so I tried using the small light to really punch up the contrast (detail) in the shield instead of hitting it with a softbox and making it look all soft.<\/p>\n<p>I wasn&#8217;t really going out to make an epic shot, but if I could just go out and flex the photographic muscles a little bit.. its not wasted time. Keep exercising..<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"&nbsp; Here in Tampa\u00a0My buddy\u00a0+Kathy Porupski and I run a local meetup group.
