12/02/2004: "Silver is Cheating"

stcelica (18k image)

Whenever I shoot something silver, I feel like I'm cheating a little.

Silver has it's challenges, but once you're used to them, it's almost hard to shoot a bad picture of something silver. This was done for Suspension Techniques. The "something silver" pop-up was for Arcona.

The 2004 Weblog Awards voting is getting closer and closer. There are some good photo blogs in the finals, but it was just an honor being nominated. :-) That doesn't mean that I don't have a bit of a competitive streak in me though. I hope posting a picture of something other than a hot girl doesn't hurt my chances.

camera:Horseman 4x5, 210mm, Fuji Provia 100
The main light is a 40ft. x 10ft. Fisher Light soft box with 16? speedotron heads inside. Rental comes with it's own operator so you don't have to mess around with the huge thing yourself.

SInce posting a picture of something other than a hot girl, I've moved from first place to third place. Hmmmm... I wonder what I'll post tonight.

You've got my vote!! Hang in there, you're third so far.

Hot girls and hot cars -- I think you've got a fighting chance. Any hot guys for your lady-type viewers? Never know, it could shoot (no pun intended) your numbers through the roof! :-)

Hot dude coming up next. After one more hot chick of course.

hey thats my car! haha. well mine is red but it's still the same model.:-D you should shoot mine in the studio sometime... heheh.

That would be cool Ryan, but for the money it would cost to shoot in the studio, you could buy that G5 you want. :-)

Art Nudes blog has now got a link to the voting and a subtle hint as to who people should vote for.

Congrats, Brooks! I just finished voting and was about to post about the nominees on my blog, but, don'tcha know, blogger's down. Again. That would never happen.
