Ted was out of town, and I wanted him to see this.... http://www.sonc.com/ducournau.htm<<<<<< Hi Sonny, Not exactly what I mean "shooting from the shadow side." But right on the mark as my kind of lighting and re-action to the situation!!! Shoot it!:-) I mean if I saw this situation there wouldn't have been a heart beat of hesitation to shoot it as we see it! Quite frankly, I can't imagine not one other photographer who wouldn't have automatically re-acted in fashion to shoot it as we see it. Quite frankly any idiot who'd respond with... "Oh I'd have used flash to fill in the shadows!" Would only illustrate their inability to be quite blind to a beautiful lighting situation! But then Sonny it's older? More mature? Guys like us who have the feelings for light, than these puppies who think all the shadows should be balanced or filled with the main light! ;-) ted Ted Grant Photography Limited 1817 Feltham Road Victoria BC V8N 2A4 250-477-2156
