Frozen Marina – 5D3 RAW Video and Stills


Wasn’t painfully cold out, so I stopped being a sissy and took some Marina 5d3 RAW video and stills at Mckinley Marina in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

RAW video colored in DaVinci Resolve and FCPX and edited in FCPX. Stills processed in Lightroom.

The stills shot without a hiccup, but with the camera temperature one degree Fahrenheit below what Canon says the 5D3 will function at (for a job I would have wrapped the camera in fabric to keep it warm), shooting RAW video led to a couple hiccups. Still got some great shots during the colorful sunset though.

Holiday Lights

In downtown Milwaukee, Wisconsin they have some great holiday lights in the same area they do their famed Jazz in the Park, Cathedral Square. They just took the lights down the other day so I’m now nostalgically looking at this 2-week old photo 🙂

Happy Holidays!

Here’s a holiday ecard I made for Buckley Fence. Hope everyone is enjoying the holidays and had a great year!

I took the photos at a Buckley Fence install in Illinois. Super nice and welcoming owners. (See photos from shoot here.)

On the left their horses are rolling on their backs for relief after having saddles on them for a training session. On the right is my Dad petting a horse while inserting lock-spacers (keep the rails in place) into fence posts.

Light Painting

I just tried doing light painting the other day. Pretty fun process and I expect to use it again.
The photos are made with one exposure and one flashlight I held.
