She recently upgraded her photo rig to a lovely Nikon D700 so she wanted to play around. These are a few of the results. <\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve always thought of Ghostbusters as supernatural janitors. It&#8217;s not a pretty job; it&#8217;s messy and it&#8217;s hard work. So we were trying to tap into that sense of exhaustion, like the scenes you see of firefighters after battling a blaze for three hours. Plus, I was trying to draw on some sadness; this guy sees death <em>everywhere<\/em>, and doesn&#8217;t necessarily want company after a tough slog. He just wants to, well, rest in peace. Even though I couldn&#8217;t resist goofing off a bit, I think we got some of that vibe, and I think these are pretty cool shots. <\/p>\n<p>Click on these for larger versions: <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/bunnyears.net\/blog\/GhostBuster1.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"\/blog\/GhostBuster1.jpg\" class=\"aligncenter\" width=\"400\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/bunnyears.net\/blog\/GhostBuster2.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"\/blog\/GhostBuster2.jpg\" class=\"aligncenter\" width=\"400\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/bunnyears.net\/blog\/GhostBuster3.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"\/blog\/GhostBuster3.jpg\" class=\"aligncenter\" width=\"400\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/bunnyears.net\/blog\/GhostBuster4.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"\/blog\/GhostBuster4.jpg\" class=\"aligncenter\" width=\"400\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Every year, people ask me if I&#8217;m going as a Ghostbuster for Halloween.
