Revenge of the High Hat

"She wanna have whatever she like. She can, if she bring her friend" - Kid Cudi

 

Tonight I did the antenna mod on my Cactus V2s transmitter so that I could trigger my flash at a greater distance. Once I put everything back together I headed out to take this photo.

 

I placed the drums in the middle of the street with the camera on the sidewalk I then proceeded to place the flashes at various lengths and what I found out was that I need to invest in some Pocket Wizard Plus II.

 

Goofing around indoors is fine but once you get outside and wanting longer distances man these things will irk you!
