Phoenix, AZ ~ 3:02 PM on 9.8.2006

Lee Roach, Assistant Art Director for Big Builder Magazine assigned me to shoot an interesting portrait of Steve Hilton, President, Merritage Homes.

Lighting: Dynalite
Main light: Medium Chimera, camera right.
Edge light: Small Chimera (back and to the left of the subjects).
Large flag to keep the sun directly off of subject.

Camera: Nikon D70s, 80-200mm lens (at 110mm)
Exposures: 500th @ f/11

Photoshop: Clouds inserted from a different image as the sky was not too interesting this day. Gaussian blur added to lower half of the shot to draw interest to the subject.
