It's been a while since I've shared. Way too busy here. But this was a killer wedding :) Up in Yosemite again, I was hoping to take more photos of the couple, but we got jammed up in tourist traffic and didn't have a chance. Still a great couple and i think I have a new all time favorite photo. TONS more (and the full story)on my site www.patrickpike.com

    Dude... what do you say to these? 1 and 5 are even crazy good for YOU! Absolutly brilliant thought lighting the couple and trees while getting the stars... just WOW! 2 lights right? Tree's lit from a stand 8-10' up and couple from near the ground or did you somehow manage to do this all with 1 light? Only nit would be that I would probably burn the tree on the left to even it out a bit, but certainly a small thing in the scope of that one.

    Thanks so much for sharing these... really well done.

    *edit* actually is that 2-3 exposures?

    Thanks everyone! Yes, #5 is a composite of 5 photos. I took one of the couple first with a single light, then an exposure of the stars, then three shots of the trees lighting them up. Exact same setup as I used here, but on a different scale - http://patrickpike.com/2010/06/lighting-a-cadillac.html

    I did it REALLY quickly without thinking (I was way too tired to work too hard at this point). The whole process from setting it up to taking the five photos took less than 5 minutes. It would be possible to do with more than one light and do it all in one frame, but I was by myself and it was quicker to do it this way than setup multiple lights.
