New Hampshire downhilling

[b-man]

I just edited these shots from a DH session today with Jell-oe. It was my first foray into multiple-flash lighting for downhilling, and I had a blast doing it. All made with an EOS-1D and listed lenses.


1.) Rock drop, shot from a tree. 24-70 f/2.8L. 1/160, f/4, ISO 800. Shoe-corded 580EX and bottom-left 430EX.

2.) Natural lighting. 50 f/1.4. 1/500, f/1.4, ISO 800.

3.) Artificial lighting. 70-200 f/2.8L non-IS. 1/200, f/2.8, ISO 800. 430EX from bottom-left.

Yeah, they kind of are. I use a resizing action that shrinks the image in two steps, sharpening at one or both (I forget) and I think it might be high time to use the version that doesn't sharpen. The files out of my 1D are plenty sharp. Thanks.

Nice looking pictures man. I really like the 2nd one, It has prefect lighting and also nice scenerie in the background. :)
