139/365. Alcohol may be a man's worst enemy, but the bible says "love your enemy" ~ Frank Sinatra
(large on black)
Today I thought I'd throw together a "special edition" strobist info shoot seeing as how Erin let me borrow the 5D2 again — I figured I would take advantage of its video-taking capabilities. And lucky for you, Flickr limits videos to just 90 seconds (otherwise I would ramble on forever).
Other than that, it was a long work day (from home). I didn't come in to work because of a strained achilles... my guess is that I'm not used to walking (to work) so much. By the end of the day, however, I felt I simply had to get out of the house to snap a quick shot around the corner.
So all you camera lighting setup nerds - this ones for you

98/365. A Happy Place ~ for Cheryl & Scott
I think tonight I've finally pushed my limits for a while in regards to taking out the stubby with a portable strobist setup in-a-bag. It took near 45 minutes to complete the entire thing, from buying a newspaper (80 cents), to travel (BART - $1.50), scouting an area (this trolly stop), and having a homeless teenager snap the photo ($3).
In the end it was worth it. Hope everyone had a great Wednesday. Techy dorks read on:

This is how people get there news. And when you travel on the subways frequently, your phone goes offline. Therefore this is the alternative.
