#IEF 7/28/2017 - Barnard College NY
Barnard College, one of Island Exterior Fabricators (IEF) outstanding projects, is situated right across from Columbia University.
IEF called on us to photograph their recent changes to the Milstein Center, one of the more prominent campus buildings.
To say we were excited would be an understatement. Barnard College is simply beautiful...nestled in Harlem directly across from
Columbia University, it is actually a part of the University, and technically one of the Ivy League schools located in the North East.
IEF had recently refinished the exterior panelling for the Milstein Center and called for new photos for their project portfolio.
One specific requirement was to capture one or more panels being put in place - an interesting challenge. We weren't able
to actually shoot on the building, so we positioned ourselves at ground level and used a telezoom (specifically, a 70-200mm
for the D850 and a 12-100mm for the EM1MII). First, the 70-200mm with the D850...
Due to the sheer size of the 70-200mm f/2.8 (Tamron), we were unable to balance it and get a clear clean shot handheld
at 200mm, so these were taken on a tripod. While we struggled with the 70-200, we alternated with the EM1MII and the
12-100mm.
After comparing the images from the EM1MII/12-100 combo (and the corresponding ease of use vs the 70-200mm),
we decided to finish the shoot with that camera. Below are the corresponding images, all taken handheld without a problem...
And the finals...
Barnard College really is a beautiful campus, and certainly worth a visit.
Do you have a particular place or space in need of imaging? Stills or video, we are available
to shoot and showcase your home, office or building. We will capture your imagination.
