Two things to share today. First is a little photoshopping of the picture I posted just above. I was playing around, and thought wouldn't it be cool if my G30 crosshairs actually had some blood red lenses? I do this kind of playing around a lot, but usually don't save or share it. This time, I thought I'd throw the image up here, just for fun.
Second, I wanted to demonstrate a quick shot setup for those of you who are interested. I recently got some slick new crosshairs:
Here is the setup shot:
Two flashes, one left, one right, firing into sheets of plain printer paper. The light as reflected in the glasses wasn't uniform, because of the relatively short flash-to-paper distance, combined with the relatively large flash-to-flash distance. But I liked the non-uniform reflections, so I didn't change anything. Diffusing the light further would have resulted in more uniform lens reflections.
