Linda Thomas, art director for Shopping Centers Today magazine asked for an interesting Environmental Portrait of Dave Cheatham and Darren Pitts of The Staubach Company for the May 2008 cover story on Mentoring.

In camera blur, camera on tripod: Start the view wider than you think you need, then start zooming, trip the shutter and continue the zoom through the entire exposure, which in this case was 1/6th/sec @ f/4.5. Try and keep as much ambient light off of the subjects as possible or you will get some blurring on the subjects.

Strobist info / Lighting:
Main light, camera left: Medium Chimera with (1) Nikon SB800 @ 1/2 power.
Edge light, camera right: (1) Nikon SB800 with Stofen @ 1/2 power.

Digital capture
Nikon 17-55mm at 18mm setting, 1/6 sec. @ f/4.5
Photoshop: yes, a little, but not much really.
