ok, my first diptych... and i'm ok with it... i'm sure I'll try a more classic diptych sometime soon, but wanted to get an action shot of some dominos biting the dust... so here's how it was done...
like last night's photo the flash was off the camera... SB-600 held above the dominos. took an 8 second exposure at f/6.3, ISO 200 (base ISO on the d90)... shot off the flash one time. oh, and the room was pitch dark.
second shot has the same settings 8 seconds, f/6.3, but this time i shot off the flash once at the beginning of the frame, toppled the dominos, then shot off the flash again.
now, i imported the shots into Apple Aperture (along with about 30 other shots... failed attempts) and then cropped and created a "book" from the images. now, i removed all the pages except for one, and then added the photos to that page, and then rotated both and added a small frame... "published" the book to JPG and voila.
my first diptych.
2 photos that are better together than they are all alone. kinda like peanut butter and jelly. or rum and coke.
