Flash Follies
View allAll Photos Tagged flashing
I spent 2 days at the North Rim of Grand Canyon and it rained most of the time. I chased the lightning here for 3 hours and took over 1000 boltless photos under an umbrella during my endeavor. Trying to capture lightning without a trigger trap is a huge waste of time, but when your successful just once it makes it all the more rewarding. I tried several different setups using continuous shutter mode with long exposures and then switched to shorter exposures on slow shooting continuous mode and thought that I had failed. When I later reviewed my photos back at the campground I found that I had captured one photo with a strike included. I guess it was luck or just persistence that rewarded me. I also used a second camera to capture video of the storm and the awesome thunderstorm that accompanied the storm. I'm not sure if I will post any of the video but it was nice to have a personal record of the awesomeness of the storms the frequent the Grand Canyon.
If you have any questions about this photo or about photography in general, I will do my best to help, just post a comment or send me a Flickr mail and I will respond as quickly as possible.

Robin [Erithacus rubecula]
This is Flash, the wee female robin...just getting ready to fly off.
She has been appearing at my feeders at The Pixies for months, now, and I noticed she had damaged her left wing, in March. She seems to be having no adverse effects, thank goodness. When I call her name, she appears for some special wee bird nuggets. I know she has been feeding youngsters but I haven’t seen them, yet...

Lightning on the 10th of July, in Poole Bay Dorset
I tried using my 70-200L as it was on the camera, but it was a bit too long (too small a fov) but I got lucky with this one I pointed it to the last flash and got this.
European Robin [Erithacus rubecula]
This wee Robin has white flashes on each wing. I think this is quite rare as I’ve never seen one like it (even having trawled the University of Google). She is usually first to appear when I’m filling up the winter feed - the peanut butter mixture - and sings as she’s sitting waiting for the all clear... A lovely little soul.
Here, she’s sitting waiting in the rain. It’s a really dull and wet day! I hope she is going to have little baby robins with this amazing white flash.

So, the season premiere of the Flash Season 3 sucked, but episode two gives me a bit more hope that this will be different from Arrow Season 3. But, we can only hope.

What did you guys think of the two recent episodes?

This rose is in a yard that I pass by frequently. Many roses around town are still doing well, but not mine.
A lot of people out the night before St. Patrick's day in Dublin, but mostly tourists. The girl jumped out into the frame of the camera as I took the shot. The image came out better than I thought.

After a year of it sitting on my shelf I decided to watch a few tutorials and do some flash photography practices
Another shot from last session with Alessandra, this time featuring an outlandish look with the aid of coloured lighting.
Strobist info: primary blue gelled sb700 shot through rapid box octa xl as fill. Sangria coloured rim light on a stripbox, and a tiny Apollo pushed in close with a cerulean blue gelled flash for key.
Shot with a Nikon D700 and the Nikkor 24-70mm f2.8 lens.
A hood used for light painting. This small black metal hood is attached to the end of a tiny Q flashlight. This tool created by Harold Ross is used for targeting light to a certain area when LIGHT PAINTING an object or scene.
Flash off camera fired using ebay wizzards. Flash is placed to the left, with a dish in the sink with the tap dripping.

Fog was lifting but it was getting dark. I had a panel light to the left and the flash turned down. From my early days with a flash, Gary Fong always said to have the ISO at 400 when using a diffuser. I had to change camera and lens as the focus assist light doesn't hit the macro subject with the 105mm lens (lens is too long and working distance is too short).
A flash of brilliance on a quiet hedgerow—the Yellowhammer is sunlight made feathered. Perched delicately among the fresh spring growth, this male stood momentarily still, his vivid yellow plumage catching the soft overcast light like a note held in perfect silence.
Photographed on farmland in the Goring area of Berkshire, this image represents more than a captured moment—it’s a quiet homage to a species whose presence has long been part of the rural British soundscape. The Yellowhammer’s melodic refrain, often likened to “a little bit of bread and no cheese”, once echoed widely across open fields and tangled thickets. Today, its song is heard less often—a soft-spoken reminder of the delicate balance within our countryside.
Framed by the subtle texture of young leaves and weathered branches, this scene offered not only a visual contrast but a chance to pause—to observe a species as timeless as the land it inhabits. No dramatic flight or flurry, just a calm, dignified presence that rewards patience and respect.
In an age of noise and haste, encounters like this are quietly profound. They ask nothing of us but awareness—and offer, in return, a fleeting glimpse of the wild in perfect harmony.
