  • one of the earliest shots in the series. Bracketed in 1/3rd stops, so graphic artist would have a range of densities to work with. Single strobe, with umbrella, to camera left.

  • trusty strobe with umbrella in corner of the room, to camera left. Ceiling had two "dropped" areas, restricting how high I could get. The area behind the closest chair was just large enough to walk between the chair and the sliding glass doors to the balcony. img_6562 was taken from the balcony while I awaited the ladder that this shot was taken from.

  • shot handheld seated in the bathtub! area of bathroom totally open to the sleeping area. shuttered doors available to close off one area from the other. Strobe just out of sight to camera left. Img_6628 is a bracketed exposure from the same vantage point.
