Challenge:Candy (Classic Editing) Camera:Canon EOS-10D Location: Long Island, NY - My dining room table Date: Apr 13, 2003 Aperture: f/19 ISO: 100 Shutter: 2 sec Galleries:Humorous, Still Life Date Uploaded: Apr 13, 2003
Shot on my (gray smoked glass) dining room table with a Canon 28-70L and one Alienbees B400 strobe aimed upward through the glass (and away from the backdrop). Backdrop was a black sheet about 4 feet behind the table. 2 second exposure - shutter triggered strobe, and during the exposure I manually shot off a flash at 1/128th power to light it up a bit from above as well.

Cute idea! Main subjects are nicely focused. Interesting use of glass and lighting from below (that said, I'm not too crazy about the extra figures created by that reflection). I think the foremost Storm Trooper is excessive and tries to dominate the frame. 8 Rob the Swash
hahaha...this is good. I like it. Very dramatic lighting that goes very well with this shot. Reminds me of my boys when they were younger. Vote 9 No I am going to give you a 10. Good luck!
