    Actually it should be: “You’re a ‘tard” (with an apostrophe indicating the
    missing first syllable).

    Ummm, that’s not it at all. What it is is basically the “red’ dust layer of
    a sunset and its color temperature in contrast and as generated by the
    strobe. As to the shadows she points out well had she known how to properly
    diffuse the strobe as well as expose the image then the fall off would not
    have cast the shadow to begin with. Herein we have the “Prosumer” trying to
    teach as if they were a professional. Oh well time to go to bed now!

    Carla, the word is “advice” not advise. Go look it up. This has been a
    public service announcement from the stupid word police!

    Duh, in front of the portion of the light that is pointed toward the
    subject.

    Because the woman doesn’t really know how to compose a photograph just to
    do “effects” and use Photoshop! Frankly the camera will take a “picture”
    without you it takes thought and an eye to make it a photograph.

    Nice video but I like using “halfs” and a variable ND to get a bit more
    control of DOF and also make the background sky pop a bit. You can always
    make things up in Lightroom bit getting it “in-camera” is where it’s really
    at. Keep up the good work.

    and I’ll send it your way.

    We used medium format cameras that flash synch at any speed. With that you
    just balance the exposure.

    What I was wondering is… How the photographers of the 70’s and 80’s
    managed to take excellent sky pictures without Photoshop. Or… I guess I’m
    still wondering.

    Not trying to say anything bad, you do nice work, but one thing stood out
    to me at around 2:02 where you state it appears “Blue Tinted”. Not sure
    what your settings are, but that sounds like the white balance is set to
    Tungsten light which is around 3400-3500 Kelvin when it should be set to
    Flash which is around 5900 Kelvin. The lower the Kelvin, the bluer the
    image will be, the higher the Kelvin the warner (yellow) it will be.
    Helpful info though.

    Very disappointing…… You should re-name this video/photographic
    tutorial, & call it “How to manipulate your photographs post creation”,
    because you certainly didn’t show us how to “How to Capture Awesome Skies
    in Your Photography”

    now i understand why models is as important as composition.. the uglier the
    model the more difficult to compose your subject.. lol

    I don’t see any ugly models in this video. All I see is that you are ugly
    because of your personality.
