    I just found your videos. You have a cohesive look to your portraits. There’s something unique about your style with those creamy environmental backgrounds and foreground flash create 😅incredible separation. Almost like it’s cutout from the background. It’s a nice look. These are good tutorials. Thanks.
    Yes. Sal del Rey translates to king’s salt. You must be one of the Hernandez from Manila not from Mexico. 🙂

    Thanks for another great BTS. Have you considered editing the highlights on the sand foreground from the strip light in the lower right? A Solid Colour fill layer matched to the amber of the water under the log would work? One can use a Luminosity mask to target those highlights and then set the blending mode to Overlay or Softlight depending on the saturation desired. Anyway, nice shot and excellent use of the 35mm FL.

    • @fjhphoto

      I definitely see what you mean. Looking at those highlights are a bit distracting to the rest of the image. I'll probably go ahead and fix that now before I forget. Thanks!😊

      @@jkspinalchoice I used the 6-stop for the first time, a few days ago. I'm not 100% used to it yet, and need more practice, but I can definitely say I like them, and see the potential. I'm happy with the results from the first time, so I know I'll be happy when I'm more comfortable with them. Jump on it, dude. I feel that they're worth the price, for sure. Good NDs aren't usually this affordable. Sure, they're a little pricey when the glass size is considered, but the alternative is considerably more, as well as much larger and less convenient.

    I dont want to sound like a weirdo but yeessss... The feet need lines, the body and skin have texture. Its what makes it so intresting. I respect who ever wants to do it how ever they prefer. Im just saying this, coming form someone that likes drawing human bodies and apreciates paintings and art in general. Still, the shot is really good. I like the tones and how everithing was placed. She is way too cute, I dont think I could handel a model that cute.

    • @fjhphoto
      @fjhphoto  4 роки тому

      Definitely understand your feedback. I say on the video I went overboard and I did. One thing I hope people realize about this shot is her leg skin looks extra smooth because it's out of focus but you're correct in that I made that and the rest of her skin too soft.

    @armandot9137 3 роки тому

    So, you are not using HSS to save power that you need to add to overcome the ND filter and you are adding chances of motion blur due to a much slower shutter speed and possibly adding colour cast and reducing image sharpness introduced by the ND filter. Did you make a semi-quantitative comparison of the trade-offs?

      Absolutely love it. I got it because it's the first Sigma Art lens specifically designed for the Sony E mount. So it performs amazing. The Sony 35 1.8 is nice but think about the size difference between the two. If you don't mind a bit bigger the 35 1.2 is 🔥.

    • @fjhphoto
      @fjhphoto  4 роки тому +1

      For this specific shot the 300 was barely enough. There's 300W of power in the AD300 Pro. There's only around 60-65W of power in a speedlite. So no a speedlite would have been too weak.
