About two weeks ago, I got the chance do something out of the norm of my shooting style. I am mostly the natural light and strobe light photographer. This time I get to shoot using constant light with SpiderLite TD5 fitted with octa softbox. I tried different placements, but the most pleasing one was when I put them in clamshell configuration. I took the first shot and the results were amazing. The only thing that I kept reminding me is to hold still while taking shot (I was shooting with Nikon 80-200 F2.8 on my Nikon D300s body) since a little motion in the shot was causing blur in the picture. I think I like what I got from these lights. Here are few headshots from the day.

This is the only shot with Nikon Sb800 in Apollo 28” softbox.

Went to Charleston, WV to attend the hacke3rcon. Had good time, learned quite a new cutting edge stuff in the world of computer security and hacking. Woke up this morning in WV to see this wonderful and beautiful site from my hotel room. Fog and smoke was rolling in, the sun coming up doing its magic with the warm and soft light, lighting up the valley. What more could I ask for. Snapped quite a few shots, here are a few of them.
