“Before or after…?”

Some people like to have fun before the shower…
Some people have a lot of fun in the shower…
Some people will have fun after the shower…

Exposure: 1/250 at f/9.5, focal length 47mm (1.6 crop factor), iso 200.
2 off camera Speedlites, with diffusers, one pointing from the front (her right) and the other one from the side (her back) through the shower glass.

“A lot in my mind”

This belongs to a series of shots I did with my brother a while ago.
The idea was to capture the different shapes and effects the waves create.
No Photoshop effects.

Exposure: 1/90 at f/5.6, focal length 24mm (1.6 crop factor).
Off camera Speedlite, with diffuser (I don’t remember exact position).

BBQ at Night (Preparando el Asado)

Shot at night, hand held, manual exposure, 1/30 sec at f/4.0, focal length:35mm (1.6x), Speedlite at top left, with diffuser in a gorillapod.

The idea was to make a night shot with some sort of dramatic light and use the smoke to give some mood.

Comments and suggestions are welcome and appreciated.

Me & My Friends

I submitted this image to JPG Magazine for their theme titled “Growing up”.
I got more than 80 votes and I truly thought that I was going to get it published but I guess it’ wasn’t good enough.

Anyway, they left me a lot of positive comments and also set it as a favorite 55 times which made me really happy.

This is a candid snapshot. The children didn’t know I was there (except the one covering her eyes).
Taken with a 10mm fisheye lens, 1/125 sec at f/2.8, iso 100, Speedlite bounced to ceiling.
Color-processed to black and white.
