1、Imagine positioning yourself at the bottom of an icy crevasse with a studio flash system, waiting for skiers to leap above you ! That was Tristan Shus crazy idea. The ELB 400 flash system was part of the winning formula for this exceptional photo shoot.想象一下自己和一个摄影棚闪光灯系统一起呆在一个冰冷的裂缝底部，等待滑雪者在你上空飞跃！这就是特

2、里斯坦舒的疯狂的想法。该ELB400闪光系统是这个特殊的照片拍摄的制胜法宝的一部分。The French extreme sports photographer, Tristan Shu, tells us about his experiences with the new elinchrom portable battery flash system, the ELB 400. Shooting in freezing, dangerous, and snowy conditions, with a seemingly endless series of challenges to ove

3、rcome, the results speak for themselves: bold and epic.法国极限运动摄影师，特里斯坦舒，向我们讲述了他和新爱玲珑便携式电池闪光系统在危险的风雪的条件中使用ELB400拍摄凝固画面的经历，这是很有挑战的项目，这也将是将是大胆和史诗级的挑战。Tristan, tell us about how this crazy idea came to you.Tristan,跟我们说说为什么有这个疯狂的想法I actually shot something similar a few years ago. I had gone down into a c

4、revasse and skiers were jumping above me and making shapes. At the time I had shot everything with natural lighting, and I said to myself that it would be cool to redo this shot with flash; the results with the vivid ice would be awesome. But it still took me years before I could pull everything tog

5、ether in the right conditions.其实我几年前曾经拍摄类似的东西。那时候我在一个裂缝下面然后滑雪者在我上面跃过，但是我那时候是使用自然光拍摄，这次我想用闪光灯再进行一次的拍摄，因为这样很酷，但我还是花了几年才有合适的条件下进行这次拍摄You could say that the images have a slightly surreal look. What are the conditions you need to achieve a result like that?可以这样说，这张相片有点超现实的感觉，是需要什么样条件才能做到的呢？The star of t

6、he shot is the crevasse itself. It had to be wide, but not too wide or the skiers wouldnt make it across. It also had to be deep enough to be impressive, but not so deep that the skiers would look too small in the photo. Above all, if the crevasse was too deep it could be a nightmare to manage the f

7、lashes and to achieve the lighting effects I wanted. It also had to look good, and be safe enough so that I could go down to the bottom and move around freely. Finally, it had to allow the skiers to get up enough momentum to make the jump, and to let them land properly afterwards.这次拍摄最有特点是裂缝本身，它必须足够

8、宽，但又不能过于宽，因为过于宽的话滑雪者就跨越不过去，还有裂缝要有足够深度，但是不能够太深，因为太深的话会在相片中显得滑雪者看起来有点小，最重要的太深的话对于闪光灯将是一场噩梦，因为这将难以达到我想要的照明效果，同时这条裂缝必须足够有看点同时足够安全，这样我就可以下到谷底，在那里可以自由走动的。最后这条裂缝还必须可以让滑雪者用尽全力使劲跳，并到达预想安全的地方。Finding a crevasse that met all these criteria turned out to be hugely complicated. We found a bunch that looked good

9、at first but ultimately let us down. Each time someone in the group thought theyd found something, it didnt work out for whatever reason. To put the right team together we had to audition tens of different skiers and guides who were all keen to work on this project. 要发现一条满足符合所有拍摄条件的裂缝是非常复杂且有难度的，我们起先

10、发现了一些看起来不错的，但最终还是以失望告终。虽然我们团队中的团员有时会发现几条看起来不错的裂缝但是最后都被否定了。但我们还是坚信能找到我们所需要的东西。最后我们团队还是实现了，我们让滑雪者和导游去试了几十个不同的镜头，他们也都热情的参与到这个工作项目中。On top of that, we had to cope with a record winter in terms of snow-free days in the Alps, so it was impossible to ski and we had to wait for the right moment to get start

11、ed.最重要的是，我们还得记录冬季阿尔卑斯山上没下雪的天数，所以有些天无法滑雪，我们不得不等待最适合的时机开始。Eventually we did find a perfect crevasse and, despite everything, we had very firm snow cover that we had to break down further to enable the skiers to make multiple jumps without putting themselves in danger. 最后，我们找到了一个完美的裂缝，同时这条裂缝也被厚厚的积

12、雪覆盖着，所以我们必须将积雪铲走，这样滑雪者便可以不用在危险中进行多次跳跃。Anyway, what a relief it was when we finally found the right crevasse!不论怎样，我们找到了一条合适的裂缝对于我们来说都是如释重负了了！Can you give us a technical description of how you managed to complete the shoot?你能不能给我们一些技术上的描述是如何完成这次拍摄的？I decided to use six flashes for this shoot: one abov

13、e each side of the crevasse to light the skiers and the top of the crevasse, three in the crevasse hidden behind blocks of ice, and one behind me to add a bit of fill flash and to brighten the foreground a little. It goes without saying that I took advantage of HyperSync technology to enable me

14、 to freeze the action perfectly, and to be as flexible as possible so I could experiment with the ambient light levels. It wasnt straightforward because I couldnt make too many attempts to set up my lighting. I had to use my imagination, work things out in my head, and get the lighting right fr

15、om the start. The final result was very close to what Id imagined and Im very pleased!我决定用6支闪光灯来拍摄，在裂缝上端的两侧裂缝各摆一只用于照亮滑雪者还有裂缝顶端，三支在裂缝顶部的冰块后隐藏起来，一支我用于照亮前景，毫无疑问的我使用了HyperSync的技术优势，在快速的移动中，完美的“冻结”了滑雪者的动作，并且尽可能灵活，这样我就可以尝试与周围光线亮度融为一体，因为不能过多设置我的灯光，不得不靠我的想象，想象着最后的效果还有灯光的正确摆放位置。最后，最终的结果和我想象的非常接近，这使我很高兴。Why t

16、he Elinchrom ELB 400 portable flashes were the right gear to use in this context?为什么说爱玲珑 ELB400的便携闪光灯适合在这种环境下使用？The mountains are hostile and dangerous at high altitudes: after all we were in a glacial environment with hundreds of metersof ice and drops below us. The slightest movement needs ropes a

17、nd the expertise of the guides. Otherwise its not safe. We needed hardware that was strong, reliable, portable, and powerful. The ELB 400s are just perfect in this setting. The Elinchrom hardware worked perfectly in highly sensitive and complicated conditions.毕竟我们是在冰川环境和高海拔危险的山上，在我们的脚下是厚厚的冰层同时我们还面临着

18、有可能坠落的危险。这需要懂得勘察地形洞察危险的专业导游带领。不然这是很危险的，所以我们需要强大可靠的，功能强大，还有便于携带的设备。这套ELB400S刚恰到好处，它高灵敏度在复杂的条件下完美的完成工作。Could you tell us more about the advantages of the ELB 400?你能告诉我们更多关于ELB400的优势是什么？Undeniably, their light weight and portability are huge advantages for this type of project. I could probably have co

19、mpleted the shoot with larger flashes like the Ranger RX, but it would have been another logistical challenge on top of everything else. We would have needed a lot more time, and a lot more people, just to achieve the same result. You need to bear in mind that we had six ELB 400s and the same number

20、 of tripods and remotes with us.不可否认，它重量很轻且便于携带，这在拍摄这些项目的时候是巨大的优势。但我也可以用像Ranger RX一样更大型的闪光来拍摄，但如何拿到上面是对于我们的后勤是个挑战。我们会需要更多的时间和人，只为达到相同的效果。需要知道，我们有六个ELB400S和相同数量的灯架和远程遥控器。We could carry all that in three backpacks, which is just incredible. In terms of usability, the fact that these flashes are so int

21、uitive, fun and easy to use, makes them so capable. All the information is on the screen and is easy to see; even someone whos not used to operating a flash can manage it in a few seconds. Thats how I managed to get one of the guides to move a flash for me and change the settings while I was at the

22、bottom of the crevasse and couldnt see anything.真难以置信，我们可以把这些设备全都塞进携带的三个背包里面。事实上这都是因为这闪光灯它直观，简单易用，且便于携带。所有信息都显示在那屏幕上面，让人很直接的都看到，即使任何一个不会操作闪光灯的，在几秒钟内都可以简单学会怎么设置操作，这就使得让我可以让我们的一个没有摄影基础的导游,当我在裂缝的底部，看不到裂缝顶端时对闪灯光进行移动和设置完成拍摄需要。I didnt realize that the ergonomic changes between the previous generation of Q

23、uadras and the ELB could make such a difference for everyday use. It really is completely different. The build quality is another very important point. It was cold and it was a very hostile environment, with the cold and the ice, snow, wind and humidity. The ELBs were in the snow throughout the shoo

24、t and there wasnt a single trigger problem. For me, that was clearly the most important test and they passed with flying colors! After the shoot, the ELBs even stayed in the backpacks that were full of snow for more than 24 hours and again, there was nothing to report: everything worked perfectly. I

25、t makes an incredible difference if you can have complete faith in your equipment. It takes a load off of your mind and lets you focus on your ideas. Above all, it lets you deal with the problems you have to solve. Its extremely reliable equipment: its Swiss, and you know its going to work.我没有意识到上一代

26、的Quadra和ELB之间，在日常使用的时候产生的差异。最重要的是它的结构完全不同，在寒冷的恶劣的环境中，又有冰雪风与湿度。该ELBS在整个拍摄当中没有任何触发的问题，对于我来说它出色的完成，这重要的测试。在拍摄后ELBs在积雪中已经呆了超过24小时，虽然是放在背囊中，但还是没有问题，一切工作正常，这就是让人难以置信的区别，如果完全相信你的拍摄设备，你只需要专注拍摄而不要来担心设备问题，这就是瑞士出品，让你只需要担心你所需要担心的问题，即你要关注的只是你的拍摄。I have been to India many times in the past but never to Varanasi,

27、one of the holy cities of India on the Ganges. Many pilgrims visit the city to bathe in its waters and to cremate or scatter the ashes of the dead in the Ganges.我去过印度多次在过去，但从来没有瓦拉纳西，印度恒河神圣的城市之一。许多朝圣者前来沐浴同时在恒河的其他水域还有火化逝者后散布着的的死者骨灰。Before a shoot I always check, camera sensor clean, batteries charged,

28、 spare batteries charged and packed, spare Cf card packed, check the flash and triggers all charged and working. As much as I can try and previsualise the shot in my mind, picture how I see it composed and lit. Of course, reality is always different, but visualising something is very important to me

29、 and I find it helps.每次拍摄工作开始前我总会检查，相机的传感器是否干净，电池是否充好电，备用电池有没有带好，备用的CF卡和保护盒准备好了没，检查好闪光灯的触发和电池充好电的工作。我尽量在我的脑海里设想着我的拍摄计划，设想着如何将拍摄过程组合起来怎么样完成。当然现实肯定和想象是大不相同的.但设想对我很重要同时也确实对我的拍摄有所帮助。My idea for this trip was to make a film about Varanasi and to shoot portraits of the sadhus along the banks of the Ganges

30、. I hadn't planned much before I went out, just my accommodation so it was all quite intuitive. For travelling and when I know Im shooting in bright daylight, the Quadra system is a great bit of kit. I know I can control the light in situations where Speedlights simply wouldnot have enough guts

31、to get the quality of light that Im after in my images. And combine that with the Elinchrom Deep Octa 70cm soft box and the light shaping possibilities are amazing. I have the light on the end of an extendable Elinchrom boom rather than a light stand, and I hired an assistant to hold the light. You

32、can easily get someone to help show you around and speak to the locals on your behalf.我关于这次拍摄的想法是做一个关于电影瓦拉纳西和拍摄沿恒河的银行圣人的画像。对于这次出行，我出发之前没有太多的计划，只是对于我住宿的地方有一个明确的目标。当我知道在日光充足的情况下拍摄，这时用我的Quadra套件摄影器材确实很棒，我知道在可以控制下使用闪光灯，可以保证有更加好的图片质量，在使用爱玲珑70cm八角柔光箱，在光线的可能性塑造是很惊人的。我有请了一个助手使用爱玲珑的伸缩杆，而不是用就用灯架。而且你可以在周围很轻易就找到人帮助你同时还可以很好地跟当地人交流。Most of the people will want payment in the region of 100-200 rupees depending on how many images you take.大多人的酬劳都是100200卢比左右，主要看你需要拍多少照片。To enable me to shoot at higher than sync speeds and avoid using neutral density filters, I use Pocket wizards TT5 HyperSynced.
