This is my new studio in La Paz Bolivia, I got all my things from NY with no problems at all, -- there was one mouse in one of the boxes that came who know from where -- The good news is that this country has 220v but some old houses like this one kept a dual system of 110v and 220v, so I asked an electrician to change the old wires, install a ground rod, and put a separate breaker for the studio. It is not huge, 7 meters by 3 meters and a bit more than two meters high, but it is conformable, sunny and, at home so I can check on my 7-year-old Tito.
In the foreground you can see the light back that I made from scratch and that I want to talk about latter, it is 2 meters high --but a bit more if you measure from the tips-- and uses the Elinchrom design principle of having the flash head pointing to the center of what is a giant umbrella with no reflector on. I measured the output with my spot flash meter and it was remarkably even.
Tomorrow Friday I will have my first sitting and will probably post some images from it...
