day 144



two great things happened yesterday:

1 - i was able to get a run in after work. i was able to get 7.4 miles in 53 minutes. it felt great!

2 - another good portrait. this one i was a bit worried about because it was to be shot at 10:30 pm in a cemetery while it was starting to rain. i knew there would not be enough light and i would have to bring some, but the rain made me a bit fearful of that. and of course it is barely even misting when you are heading to the location to shoot, but as soon as you open up your gear, it gets heavier. what a bastard god!

i also didn't bring a tripod. i don't know why, but i just didn't. luckily the movement in the subject came out almost ghostly, so it didn't really seem odd given the setting. also, the ambient light from the street lights just outside the cemetery gave the overall shot a really warm/sepia feel, which played in well with the guy's red tie.

all in all a positive night.
