THE GREAT PORTRAIT SERIES-0003...SETUP

So the first thing i wanted to avoid,was to throw direct light on the baby.....

The setup is pretty simple....

I mounted a canon 580 EX II on a tripod, and raise it hight enough to the ceiling...

This was a small baby and the poses where simple...always on a hug or on the sofa..so the light would come from the top and fill with soft light this little angel.....

Here is the setup shot...

                                

simple..true simple.....

I used a Canon EOS 5D with ST-E2 transmitter for triggering the 580.

The ISO was set to 400 since i had only one light.

A canon EF 70-200 F:2.8 was used 

The white balance was set to Auto..and it worked pretty well..

The 580 was in manual mode at 1/16 of power (Maxa Powerex batteries where used)

F:7,1  t:1/40...pretty risky if you thing that this angel couldn't stand still..

I chose RAW file and shot about 250 frames.
