Literally. Was doing some shooting at a local ice skating rink today for the office. Walking around on the ice for a few hours in non-insulated boots gives you a bit of a chill I’ll tell ya. I started off using my studio lights, but the rink’s such a big place, it was hard to light the space I needed to evenly. I could do it with a bit more gear, but unfortunately I can only work with what I have available. Ended up shooting without flash and was still able to get some good stuff.

Oh, did some photos recently that may end up being used as senior photos. I was out trying some new lighting techniques and had a volunteer as my test subject. She was a real trooper. Here’s one of the shots from that shoot. Overall, I was pleased with the results I got.

I hope to have a couple more fun, interesting shoots between now and year’s end so look forward to more news about that.

Outside the world of photography, I picked up the Genesis collection disc for my PSP. I used to play Kid Chameleon and Sonic the Hedgehog on my Sega Genesis years ago. Now I have most of the good games released for that system all in one place. While I was in EB Games getting that, I did look closely at the Playstation 3 and Nintendo’s Wii. I’d lean more towards the PS3, but with as many hobbies and interests as I have, the last thing I need is something else to eat up what little time I have left! If I do get a system though, it should probably be an XBOX360 since Kevin owns just about every one of the best games on that console.
