I thought my shot was Pretty Awesome but Mary Ellen waved it off. "You should have had an assistant with a light on a pole, right about here," she said and moved on. "Who on Earth would have an assistant with a light on a pole?" I thought to myself, believing my photo exactly As Good As It Needed To Be. And over the years, I've realized that every bit of criticism she ever gave me was spot on. My photo was okay, at best, but it could have been better. So for those Brooklyn shots I had an assistant with a 32 inch Photek Softlighter II following me around. The flash was fired by Pocket Wizards. kc On Dec 15, 2010, at 3:20 PM, Mark Rabiner wrote: > I think magic shows are no fun if the guy doesn't in the end tell how he > did > it. And he never does!
