Booked for Christmas dinner yet?
If not, you'd better hurry.
Bookings may be made here, which is where you'll also find the menu. The venue is the Rockefeller Bar & Grill, on King St in the city, on December 8. It's just a month till it happens, but bookings will be closed well before then.
As always, this will be a top night, with the announcement of the PotY, OMotY, and, of course ....
White on White (looks good in red, too, eh?  )
This should be a fun challenge for you to shoot, with just so many different possibilities. How much thought have you given this so far? Have you got a basic concept in mind?
Lighting? That will be a most important aspect of this challenge.
As will exposure and contrast.
Have fun.

Leigh went to the D3/D300 product launch yesterday. I've posted one image here. More to come, but prepare to be impressed.
D300 pricing through Poon. And I'm starting to take orders.

Craig,
I was leaving that up to someone else to point out.

White balance is old hat. The new buzz word and 'modus operandi' is black balance! Get with it people!
