So after writing that last post I really didn’t want to wait until the weekend to experiment with the Brenizer Method.  Today is a slower day for me, although I really have many things to catch up on work wise.  I couldn’t resist and decided to quickly experiment and see what I could come up with.

Follow up:

I decided I would take one of my frog figurines to use as a subject.  It took me a couple run throughs but I finally got the hang of it.  I got my settings all figured out and snapped some shots in a sort of grid pattern 3 across, 4 down and one more for good measure.  I downloaded the frames onto my computer, opened Photoshop and let it do it’s thing.  Here is the result.

I took these images with the Canon EF-S 55 - 250mm

Each frame shot at the 250mm length and f5.6

Here is the same subject shot with the same lens at 250mm and f5.6 in one single shot.
