I'll check out the rest of the series later.


Every photo was taken in 18 mm to 35 mm and in a 3.5-5.6 aperture..that's why everything seems to be in focus. I'm waiting to get a 50 mm 1.8.

Thanks.

This is a non-fiction account and I like to be able to see sharp detail rather than Photoshop-like blur effect. 2 light stands and 2 portable flash units geled appropriately would give you a much better result. Even 1 unit since the ceiling is low and you can get indirect bounced light to avoid direct lighting. Just my 0.02 cents.


Yeah, i think that two flashes would be great but there's a lot of people in that place...i will try it.
Thanks for the suggestion!

majorly gruesome, but very powerful and very well done.
