I've seen a white balance doohicky that goes (temporarily) over the lens--have you ever tried this? But it's probably easy to just have her hold a gray card or a sheet of white paper with printed text, huh?
Either way, it's time for me to fix my white balance problems!
Hey! Thanks for the comments and critiques. Those are the reason I signed up for this. I will do my best to take a stroll through your work and give you my best as well. Cheers!
i have so many questions i could write an encyclopedia!!
there's one thing that worries me about my photos. i have a Canon EOS 30D (i see you use a 20D) and a Canon 24-70/2.8L, but i find that lots of my photos are not half as crisp as yours are. could there be a problem with my camera? or i am just bad?
I'd forgotten about the RAW vs. finished thing (again). Fixing exposure (where possible) is something I do lots myself when I remember to shoot in RAW format.
No doubt you've picked up on a recurring thematic element of my personality: I forget stuff.
There are, as always, a great many incredible images among those you've posted. I'll wait eagerly to see the finished product!
You're welcome for the comments. I'm no photographic genius, but I try to bring up whatever seems like it might help, picky or not.
And I understand what you mean by the "photo trollers" (-: It's great that a zillion people check out your work, but if they all leave without comment, the photographer (not to mention his model--especially if she's married to him) wonders if everything posted is, well, interesting at all. I'm always interested in comments (good or bad). The least I can do is return the favor!
