Day Seventy
by Andrei on Dec.25, 2009, under project 365
Today I drove all the way to Christmas Way, and no, there was no Santa Claus there, no snow, and not many people. I did have to stand in the middle of the street in order to take some of the shots, but since today is Christmas Day, there were hardly any cars on the road. I drove around a little bit afterwards. It’s amazing how deserted everything is, and if you think that less than 24 hours before taking this shot the whole city was crazy and packed with shoppers and cars, it makes you realize how commercialized this celebration has become. Why were there so many people around yesterday and why is there nobody around today? I think we all know the answer. Merry Christmas.
Christmas Day
Merry Christmas.

I thought it’s about time to hit the road some more and get some shots outside. I got some other great images tonight but in the end I chose this one.
pedestrian bridge
Strobist info: 30″ exposure with two 580 EX II CL full power manually triggered on the rocks. AWB. No gel on the flash. I did cool it down a few degrees in Lr.
Day Forty Seven

Some guy driving some huge truck got pulled over in front of me while returning home. It wasn’t too far from yesterday’s spot and I decided to pull over in front of him and take a shot. It was dark and rainy so I didn’t get the best view. You can read below for details and setup shot.
some guy got pulled over
Strobist info: 580 EX II with bunch of red and blue gel behind the truck, on the ground fired manually on two channels with the TEST button of the PW during 1’6″ exposure (blue, blue, red) and $2 LED flashlight handheld and hand snooted to get some highlights of the truck. Modified setup shot here. Between you and I, this was by far the hardest shot so far.
