In this photo, I used the blanketed light pocket wizard and put it above her face at about a 45 degree angle. And had it on 1/4 power. I used part of the ambient lighting to help as well.
My DIY macro flash diffuser, which is simply a plastic plate with a semicircle cut out, attached to the lens hood of my Tamron 90 macro.
Tried again today, looks a little better I think. Still so much to learn, its crazy trying to get into this.
So as with every time I learn a new technique I must try it out on poor Domo. After our last time out doing portraits with a flash I really wanted to know how to achieve better results and nicer lighting.
Turns out, flash photography is a whole new world of learning and of course buying things! So I went and got a light stand with umbrella and some wireless receivers and here we are again.
We went to the same park as the last photo trip and this time tried some off camera flash stuff. It took a while to learn and honestly I'm still trying to understand it, but we took some really cool shots I think. Here's the first one hot off the presses.
Flash powder device from the early 20th century . Flash powder is put on the tray . A battery inside the container provides an electric current that heats a thin wire that runs through the powder . At a certain moment the powder explodes and gives a flash .

Found an old flash in me father's cupboard, a 'Sunpak SP-140" it's called, I like the fact it's nice and compact to use with the LC-A beside the usual Coloursplash flash, mind you it's a lots more powerful than the coloursplash flash, thought it take bloody age to reload.

Clicking 'humans' has never been my forte but a new flash is changing my perspective. The flash is a Third party Sunpak RD2000C. It is a nifty little thing that meets most of my needs at a very reasonable price. With a Guide number 65.6 it could give coverage for up to 35 feet. The boy is my nephew. Some of you might remember seeing him in some earlier uploads. The title is self explanatory I guess :-)
2014 Weekly Alphabet Challenge, Week 31, F is for Flash
I was hoping all week to catch a flash of lightning, but alas no thunderstorms where we were , not even last night. I did take pictures of husband's kilt flashes, but they come in pairs, you can't have one kilt 'flash'. So I decided to try capture the camera's flash in the mirror. Not having a masking filter, that makes for rather ghostly pictures. Some fiddling with levels and gradient filters gave this result, a different kind of selfie :-)
Once in a lifetime. Capturing someone elses flash sure can't happen often. We didn't even try, it just happened.
A Flash is a water-filled hollow formed by subsidence.
Pennington Flash is a 70-hectare (170-acre) lake created at the turn of the 20th century by coal mining subsidence, mainly from Bickershaw Colliery. Before the flash the area contained two farms, both of which were abandoned in the early 1900s due to flooding.
During the 1960s and 1970s the idea to convert the flash for recreation was emerging and the country park was opened in 1981
