In The Neon Light

p.1 #1 · In The Neon Light


I've been wanting to experiment with mixing light from neon window signs with natural blue-hour lighting at the end of the day, so earlier this week I did a shoot in downtown Portland during blue hour to see how it would turn out. The idea in my head was to use the neon light as the main light source, while the blue hour helps set a mood, and the two different colored light sources would hopefully compliment each other as well. These are my favorite three:

Canon 5D MKIII, Canon EF 85mm f/1.2L II lens.

Nice work Daniel. Kinda like the darker backgrounds they seem to make the subject come forward a bit. Crazy ass Bokeh!

Thank you! Yeah, the 85mm f/1.2 produces some very dramatic bokeh / out of focus areas. Definitely my favorite lens.
