Photoshoot

[ click to enlarge ]

I've mentioned it before... I get a strange kick out of taking photos of people taking photos. In this case, I was helping out (and taking production stills) for Dave Nagel, a photographer who has helped me out a lot.

How did I trigger the strobe? I didn't... out of sheer luck I triggered my shutter the very fraction of a second (1/60th of a second, to be exact) that he triggered his shutter. I have dozens of failed attempts on my memory card, but I managed to make it work once.

Dave is using a Hasselblad with a 22 megapixel digital back.
