One photo a day. It may not have been taken the day of posting, but at least worked on that day.
September 5, 2008
No time to shoot today - I worked all day, am nursing a cold/fever, and have a wedding tomorrow. So my "POTD" is my checklist for tomorrow:
40D with 24-70 attached - check
XTi with 50 1.4 attached - check
70-200 ready and waiting - check
580 flash with off-shoe cord - check
flash bracket - check
lightmeter - check
4 spare double AA's for the flash - check
2 spare batteries for the 40D - check
20 gigs of memory plus card holder - check
lens pen and cloth - check
quick-release plate for tripod - check
What's missing? The tripod, reflector, white balance disc, the 4 double AAs, 2 XTi batteries and Epson 3000 that are all recharging, as well as the pack mule who's going to carry all this stuff tomorrow. btw...I love my smugmug strap - sure beats the canon one!
And thank you all for the wonderful response to Katie's portrait. I must confess, other than sitting her in front of the window, the pose was sheer dumb luck! Usually, just getting something in focus is half the battle - she doesn't sit still for too long.
