Spent some time at Longwood Gardens fooling with Off Camera Flash. The idea here was to manually set the camera to UNDER EXPOSE the image causing the backgrounds to become darker. The off camera flash was optically triggered to throw some light onto the flower in the foreground. It took some experimenting to determine the best flash power setting. Going off camera with the flash also allowed positioning it to reduce shadows. The camera's built-in flash was set to a low power setting (-3) so it would not contribute much towards lighting the scene but was still enough to act as a trigger.
There was a thunder-storm over my home tonight and I took a hand at attempting to capture some lightning, there were lots of bursts, but either never in frame or my shutter was closed at the time.
And no, he does not like that. But you can see him better. I'm also posting more of his spots, and body here too.
FLASH BACK
Il luogo del ricordo svanisce al primo istante del flash back,
superata la soglia della propria porta, quando mi accorgo
quanto è familiare il cambiare incessante del tutto.
Il luogo nel ricordo si manifesta,
e nell’evanescenza dell’io presente tutto torna
a me, ogni strada percorsa, ogni pietra lanciata,
i vetri infranti e le altre sensazioni che il luogo
non può contenere, come gli intollerabili “se”
nei ricordi di occasioni mancate.
Il bianco apparire, nel rituale cammino quotidiano,
si colma di valori che vibrano colmando
ciò che appena rammento, dei segreti rifugiati tra l’asfalto,
gli amici incrociati, perduti o coltivati, i dolori spariti
e le gioie che di quando in quando tornano a sostenere inverni.
Così il luogo diviene nel ricordo,
poiché è la mia persona inesprimibile a dargli identità.
Se solo potessi
ne imprigionerei i resti sulle trame della tela.

Testing A-setting for fill light outdoors Pentax K-1, FA* 2.8 80-200mm. Two speedlights. 125s F/8. JPGs with no editing except crop and resize. I was using a Godox X-Pro(P) trigger for the Godox flash. A non-TTL cord for the Pentax flash.
PS: In the real world it's not enough to measure the insident light in the model face/in the shadow. You must measure the light at the background as well. The background should rule the shutter speed and aperture. The flash light should add some light to the ambient light, hitting the model. So the flash (key light) should match the shooting aperture.
Played around with different exposures, with the flash set at about 1/16 - 1/16 +0.3 power (it'll go as low as 1/64). Came up with an exposure I thought looked halfway decent (judging by the histogram), but now that I've seen this on the computer and here on Flickr, I don't know. I've got a lot to learn still. ~sigh~ (Feeling a little disappointed at the moment, after all the effort I put into this tonight.)
Except for cropping it, this is SOOC. I took several photos, and will probably post a few more from this shoot. For now, though, time to... zzzzz.
I like how my unedited eyeballses look large on black. (If Big Huge Labs doesn't let you see this LARGE on black, then I'm going to leave the impression of my foot on their face. :P Well, maybe not, but I definitely won't be happy.)
EDIT: I spent a little time this evening looking for a screen/cover sort of thing to protect the LCD screen of my camera. I found a company that makes some for the Canon 50D, but no one who carries them. Amazon doesn't, and B & H Photo doesn't. They both carry the one for the 40D, though. Helluva lot of good that does me. :P It is a new camera, as well as a new product from that company, so this is to be expected... perhaps. I also ordered that set of DVDs a couple of days ago. The set I mentioned in my comments here.
