Earlier this week my wife and I celebrated the 27th anniversary of the day we met. Coincidentally, that's also her birthday and the day before mine. When I mentioned to my employer, a female with excellent taste, that I was going to take home some roses, she admonished me that they are passe. (Imagine that there is an accent over that last "e.") She immediately picked up the phone and ordered a bouquet from her favorite florist. You can imagine how pleased I was to learn that the stylist decided to include roses, which indicates that my taste might not be entirely out of whack.
I placed the presentation in my sunroom, which with its white walls, floor and ceiling becomes a giant reflector. The lighting is from above, a combination of halogen and incandescent. I used a grey card for WB.
This is the first time I've tried anything like this. Now that I have a D80 in my bag, I'm doing a lot of things for the first time and lovin' it.
