Martina's reflection in the mirror.
Added 2020-12-30 08:31:00 +0000 UTCI've used soo much my 2018 MacBook Pro, that the battery needed changing already.
This meant I had no access to the pictures of the last shooting with Martina for some days, but I was still able to work on the 2013 MacBook Pro for the photoshopping of older shootings.
Now that I have the 2018 computer back, I've finished extracting the pictures of Martina and I'm reassured about the results: we do have some nice pictures also from this day.
This one, for example, was taken during the first backstage video, already available on VK
It was taken towards the end of the video, when Martina was on the left hand side of the frame, and over the edge most of the time...
I was shooting with the Nikon D810, with the 85mm f1.8 and the aid of the Profoto A1 flashlight.
The camera experienced some problems focusing (like usual) but the flashlight is always giving a great punch to the pictures and allows for smaller aperture even in low light situations.
All in all a welcomed variation on my usual technique.
Next time I work in a badly lit room, I guess I will try the Leica M with the flash, precisely manual focusing of the 50mm Summicron through the viewfinder and using the Profoto off camera...
I bet the results are going to be stunning, even better than Nikon's.

I could never have guessed the success these pictures with glasses were going to have: the one on YouPic has reached 3rd place in the top photos of all times and is still climbing... Maybe I'm getting more overall visibility there, because of the PRO account they gave me to try, but it is still a great and unexpected result! I guess you're not the only one who like glasses π... and Martina.
