I've Got It!
In this image, taken three seconds after the previous one, the young barn owl has jumped down from the roof of the owl house to grab the rodent that its parent has just delivered. It probably hasn't eaten in seventeen hours, is very hungry, and has been screeching "feed me" for the last two hours. The one young owl, remaining on top of the owl house, really wants something to eat.....soon.
I lit this with one bare strobe on each of the tall light stands on either side of, and close to, the owl house. This house is about thirteen feet off of the ground, and the light stands are positioning the strobes a little below and off to either the side of the house. I'm using a YN560 and YN560-II in manual mode at 1/2 power, and they are triggered by a Yongnuo RF-603N trigger. I sit in a chair away from the camera and trigger the shutter with the same trigger that fires the flash. I have one trigger in my hand, one receiver on my camera, one receiver on the YN560-II, and the YN560 is in slave mode which fires when it senses the other one firing.
