[quote="pakodominguez"]I was trying some accesories for the monolights the other day: the front light was done with a snooth and the backligth with a honeycomb and a blue filter.
Here a couple of samples, both with the A850 and 100 mm f2.8 Macro
Pako
Those are very good pictures.
First one is warm and soft.
Super.

Nice shots Pako. The first one might be improved by removing the blue halo of the glass container? Though tricky to do where it interescts with the leaf.pakodominguez wrote:I was trying some accesories for the monolights the other day: the front light was done with a snooth and the backligth with a honeycomb and a blue filter.

I should add, John, that my wife loves your picture, particularly for the colorful background.

Upon further consideration I really don't like the version I posted first.. I'll keep this one. Tell your wife thanks for the compliment! We love our colorful house.... Thank goodness Dannelle and I have similar tastes!!!
If the last thing you remember hearing is somebody yelling 'CLEAR!!!', assume you've had a problem!!

A 1000W tungsten light from underneath a maple leaf resting on A4 paper and large piece of organic glass (creamy color. What do you want? I didn't have a white one.

pretty obvious, but i like it, i was trying some off camera flash when my grand daughter reached for the flash, it was probably the best of the day

Two light sources. Bathroom ceiling light, diffuse. Bathroom window, slightly diffuse, late afternoon.

Re: Challenge 24: "Off-Camera Lighting" - Submissions
Well, what was this bathroom photo which violated Photobucket's terms of use? I'm curious!
Maybe "No photographs of buckets, dunnies, cludgies, pails or other bathroom subjects making fun of buckets must be posted..."

Re: Challenge 24: "Off-Camera Lighting" - Submissions
I can not show you an example which is up to date, but hiding the flash behind an open book being read in their sort of situation, bouncing the flash off the pages, works really well.gio67 wrote:pretty obvious, but i like it, i was trying some off camera flash when my grand daughter reached for the flash, it was probably the best of the day

Re: Challenge 24: "Off-Camera Lighting" - Submissions
OK, just what every 'bump to baby' studio promotionshoots here - nude mums to be more often than not with nude dad tastefully wrapping hand on tummy, or existing older kid with ear to tum, etc. You can see them in studio windows and 'bump' shots are a standard portrait offering.
Strange Photobucket behaviour!

Perhaps the "stork" is a sponsor of photo bucket and they don't want us to know where babies come from.
