Metropolitan Museum of Art


A shot of the carvings on the side of a sarcophagus using my 20D.

Dropped by the Met for a little culture and to see a friend's Nikon D300 in action, Impressive.

If I weren't already invested in Canon glass I would get one. I may get one anyway if I get annoyed enough at Canon's cheesy nickel and dime method of model line feature releases :) .

Rockefeller Center - Electric Fountain


Met a friend for dinner and dropped by Rockefeller Center to see the Electric Fountain display.
From what I was told the LED bulbs were used instead of incandescents to be more "green".

B&H Photo - Event Space


Dropped by B&H Photo for one of their new Event Space Seminars.

"Fundamentals of Model Testing and Fashion Photography" given
by
Joey Quintero.

It was a fun and informative session with straight talk on the realities
of the business.

A test studio with model was set up for demo purposes during the
second half of the session. I was provided the opportunity
to try a
few shots with my camera on their PocketWizard triggered Profoto
beauty light rig.
The session let everyone involved assess the quality of
lighting with their own cameras.

Cudos to David, Jennifer and Joey
plus all their supporters at B&H for the Event
Space
session!
