Here's a sink that will make you rethink how you take pictures (6 photos)

Canon 5D mark II with 85m f/1.2 ... yes, f/1.2, it's a huge chunk of glass

So we were playing around with lighting.

Do you REALLY have to accept the lighting that's there?

do you REALLY have to use expensive studio lights?

Nope.

We used flashlights.

I don't even remember which ones, just some different flashlights with various "safety yellow" or bright red or green modes.

And I definitely covered some with gels.

I think one was stuck in color changing mode, where it would fade through the whole spectrum.

And here's a shot with a person in it.

It was lit with a hand torch from off to the side.

And here's what happened when we broke out the wall powered lights.

No, not a big fancy pro flash unit.

An ordinary ceiling light fixture.

Now THIS photo is a little harder to do.

I actually used a flash to light this one.

But hey the car is worth it.
