Exposed two frames of the kids the other night, luckily both turned out. We went for a fun shot and a serious shot.

[Corran]

Sheldon, those are both wonderful and have a gorgeous 3-D rendering. At wide-open, did you have trouble getting them all in focus? Or did you use some tilt?

[Sheldon N]

Thanks! No tilt, and yes I had a heck of a time getting them all to stay in the plane of focus. It took many promises and bribes.

Is your background a curtain?

[Sheldon N]

It's a 10x20' painted muslin background. I think I got it off ebay years ago.

[Peter Lewin]

Sergie, Sheldon: Those are wonderful! There is something about the spontaneity of children that you both captured beautifully. And Sheldon, looking at your three threesome, the phrase "herding cats" comes to mind, you certainly managed it!

Thank you

nice set

Its a homemade ringlight (circle board with lightbulbs) that one of my students built for the purpose of reflections.

I had a feeling it was some sort of ringlight. Very neat, thanks for sharing.
