I was experimenting with the flash at a friend's gig tonight, mostly with a snoot, but with the flash off camera on a cable. The technique has definite promise, but it takes so much attention to aim the flash with one hand, while doing everything on the camera with the other, that it'll take a lot of work before I've got it solid.
I think that what the technique really needs is a snooted flash aimed by an assistant, several feet off camera, with an on camera flash a couple stops underexposed, acting as an on axis fill. This shot, however, was done by bouncing my flash off a mirror, a few feet to the left of the stage. Since Gypsyjack was on the left end of the stage, I was able to side light him with the flash like this. http://www.flickr.com/photos/ellarsee/5452691805/in/set-72157625947632715/ -- Larry Colen l...@red4est.com sent from i4est -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
