Mexican Model, Lucero at ARC Fashion Show

Uploaded: April 28, 2008

Description

This is one of the many models from Mexico, Lucero who models under the guidance of Bernie De La Garza and is wearing a gown from Ultima Moda in Cuidad Acuna, Mexico. Lighting was horrible and this was captured using Canon 5 D, 24-105 EF lens at 24mm, F/4, 1/200 at ISO 1250, 580 EX speedlight with omni bounce pointed at 45 degrees up. This is just the first pass editing at 8,5 x 11 as I do for all (for presentation to the models in contact sheet or orders). I will further crop if worthy of saving and has a point of attention. I processed in Aperture with straighten, highlights, shadows, levels and noise reduction.

Exif: F Number: 4, Exposure Bias Value: 0.00, ExposureTime: 1/200 seconds, Flash: did not fire, compulsory flash mode, ISO: 1250, White balance: Auto white balance, FocalLength: 24.00 mm, Model: Canon EOS 5D

Next year I hope to get them to leave the lights on. The models wanted them on, and I did as well. Thanks for visiting Shelly and Patrick. I have the George Paul Memorial Bull Ride to photograph this week-end. I will be in the arena again and this year it will also be televised on National TV. #5867396

This is one of your best shots for a highly controlled exposure and depth of field at F4, Emile!
Doc, I see that are feeling younger and younger day by day, or pehaps night by night - you lucky ..!
So sorry for not being at BP recently - partly because of my civic responsibilities and partly because of the serious lack of professionalism in BP editor/ judges' work!
