Please note that this is not an area for you to showcase your images, nor is this a place for you to show-off where you have been. This is an area for you to post images so that you may share with us a technique that you have mastered, or are trying to master.

Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature.

Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread.

D70 + Tokina 28 - 80 f2.6 + TC1.4 + SB 800.
Did not bring my Nikon 80 - 200 f2.8. Very hard to get good angle and close up. There were too many other fellow photographers and crowd.

Great capture of the moment however I'm curious to know why you shot this as a landscape? I'd crop the sides as there is far too much wasted and distracting space on either side of your subject. And correct me if I'm wrong - Is that a foldback speaker in the bottom right of the image?

Hi Hutchy,

I was using a Tokina 28 - 80. I did not have any longer lens with me. I had no choice but to make the best of the situation. With the stage so far away from me, with a TC1.4 attached, zoomed to 80, i still get the foldback speaker. I simply could not get any closer. Worst, the good spots were already taken up. Lighting was bad on the catwalk as the organiser had unwisely chose to put coloured disco spot lights which play havoc on the white balance. I had chosen to shoot at the entrace where the models appear as natural light from the glass rooftop provide good lighting. Due to the distance, i can only use my flash to fill shadows. Unfortunately, you also get the model's shadow in the background.

regards,

Arthur
