My sister and BIL want some pictures Sunday. She wanted to have an actual photographer come out, but some expenses came up, so she asked if I could get some shots instead.
equipment:
Nikon D3100
18-55 kit lens
55-300 lens
58mm red, PL, and some ND filters with an adapter for the 52mm lens
55mm red and green filter with an adapter for 52mm
52mm "deep red" filter
Tripod and remote release.
Conditions look to be sunny with no clouds, but I haven't checked the forecast myself. Outdoor with various blossoming trees, rhodadendrons (sp?), plants, woods, etc.
I plan on using the flash for a little front lighting, larger aperture for that 'depth' look, and the deep red for some cool black and white shots. If there's no clouds and we're not next to running water, I don't see much use for the ND filters, unless someone else knows something.
I want to use my deep red with my modded Sony point and shoot for a false-color IR picture too, but for now I don't have a modded DSLR, so I'm limited there.
Anyway, any recommendations for some good settings or tricks to get a really good shot?
