Peace, wind! Be still!

This is a discussion on Peace, wind! Be still! within the Open Talk forums, part of the General Information category; I have an outdoor portrait session Saturday. Why does it have to be windy? Time to get creative....

Man--you aren't kidding. I had that same problem yesterday shooting a 3 yo girl with baby fine hair. I could have blown a puff at her from 5 feet away and messed it up. It took a lot of patience to get the shot we needed.

I love the subject line, John. As far as I know, only one man in history has been able to utter those words and have any effect. LOL!

I SO know what you guys mean about the wind here. It definitely makes outdoor work challenging.
