Had a great time shooting at a military museum today though we were woefully ill prepared. After a week long heat wave and a high today of 97, the inside of the museum which is neither heated nor cooled stayed about 90 degrees the entire day. My wife's makeup and hair gave up the ghost in about 30 minutes.
We knew going in we couldn't use any strobes or flashes but the continuous lighting we brought, considering the size of the light sucking objects we were dealing with barely made a dent. As a result, I stayed on a tripod for most of the day while my friend valiantly tried to shoot without. I stayed at about a 1600 ISO to keep the shutter speeds above 1/15 and my model, who's used to me shooting at 1/200th most of the time had a hard time adjusting. Still, we got some decent, but noisy shots.
The folks running this place, which I promised not to directly name, were fantastic. Considering where I'm from it should be pretty easy to research. We have to go back and give this another shot when everything is cooler.
