Thanks, Dave, old industrial places are great to shoot!!
Originally posted by timbo13 I really like 1a, what an interesting place.
by the way, I agree that the existing light is much more interesting than on-camera flash.
Perhaps thoughtful use of off-camera flash could give some interesting results!
Thanks, Tim, I think I could have used my flash creatively by putting it behind of those pipes, would have given interesting variation, now there was windows on wither side in addition to the pulb in the ceiling. Only I do not posses any wireless devices...
Originally posted by Darren M No contest at all for me, especially on number one. The natural light is an interesting looking photo. The one with flash is just not interesting at all. I don't mind good flash use at all, but really good flash use is difficult and quite rare and I just don't care for it when it is not well done. then again, I am sure Joe McNally could do some amazing things with his flash arsenal in that scene.
Thanks Darren, yes I have read with about his techniques, from the amazing book "The Moment It Clicks", but I don't have the arsenal, to use your words

Thanks Juan, it really was an amazing place, both by it's machines and by the quite differentiated light it has. Bulbs, small windows in strange places etc.
