Flying Horse Press

I just finished a shoot at Flying Horse Press, a publisher of museum quality, limited edition art books and prints by internationally renowned artists and authors. They are affiliated with the University of Central Florida's Fine Art Press. The work produced there is jaw dropping, absolutely beautiful.

The first shot is of the gallery space and was lit exclusively with available light. White balance on the camera is set to tungsten to turn the daylight in the space blue. The second shot is of the binding and finishing area and was lit with available light and a 650w tungsten spot on the press in the left of the frame, another 650w spot on the press in the foreground and finally a 200w Arri spot on the press in the back. All lights are set up in the same area outside the right side of the frame. The third image is available light except for a 650w tungsten spot that has been gelled for daylight on the right side of the frame and aimed directly at the press in the middle of the page. All three photographs were made with the Nikon D3 and the 24mm Nikon PC lens.
