Title: After Irma Group Shots
Post by: Rub on September 18, 2017, 06:53:12 AM
Prior to hurricane Irma I had about 15 of my kettles outside under my smoke shack. Of course I couldn't leave them outside (the eye went right over us) so I brought them in to ride out the storm.

We all made it safely through Irma thankfully. Sunday I had to take them all back outside so I figured since I had to move them anyway I should get a group shot. The plan was to do it in the back yard with the lake behind them. I did some cell phone shots and even some 4k drone shots. But with the bright sunshine and glare I just wasn't too happy. I waited for the sun to go low and got this one:

Here's an aerial from 400' up earlier in the day. The kettles are the upside down v in the center.

Then with the sun setting I flew the drone behind my setup and that's where I found the colors and lighting that I liked. So I grabbed a few good shots from around back. The problem is that it shows the back of the kettles lol. I guess it's better than nothing. So these are my kettles, from the ass side. First small then full sized.

How often do you polish those things? They look great.

Beautiful shots.  Perfect lighting conditions.  Like a flock of Canadian Honkers flying in V formation.

Believe it or not I didn't do anything. That's just lighting and porcelain.
