    Donald's wide angle shot reminded me of this...

    I am not sure that I ever saw anyone shoot like this

    I wonder if he really shoots jobs using two cameras. Since I have a fisheye lens, I might just try his style of shooting (from the ground up and not looking through the viewfinder). It might be fun to see what I come up with I don't think that I would try the two camera route though!'

    Actually, since I cannot walk and chew gum at the same time, a two handed shoot would be dangerous to my equipment and those around me. However, I can see the advantages in some wedding situations to shoot two handed. One would be the cake cutting and the others would be the bouquet or garter toss.

    Interesting technique and discussion, I liked his comments about only using natural light and it is something I tend to prefer; however I've lately begun experimenting more with off-camera flash. At 29 minutes in Gene Ho's video I probably would've used f/8 or higher just to get some star patterns in the background I know it's something that's been done many times but why not get both shots as your only going to get one chance; still wouldn't need flash just a tripod and maybe a one continuous light source and the lamp posts could definitely serve that purpose.

    Thanks for sharing the link.
