Real photos for a change. Well, as real as snapshots of time can be. The pool was a little high so it got pumped out a bit, and the spray caught my eye - and my lens...
I shot these all with my flash at different locations with my external flash and my wireless remote trigger.
UW Photo Club event. See www.flickr.com/photos/uwphotostefan/ for some more by me, and the group pool for more by the other club members who, unlike me, know what they're doing.

The beauty of digital photography is the way you can do some experimenting without tossing away a bunch of film. This time around we were at Longwood Gardens and decided to fool around with some fill flash technique. On a previous trip, I had used a radio trigger to fire the manually controlled flash unit. For some reason the radio triggers wouldn't work so this became our chance to try the optical trigger built into the flash attachment.
Firing the unit optically involves using the flash built into the camera to tell the off camera unit when to fire. I didn't want the on camera flash to light up the image so I set it's power level as low as possible. That way, most of the light hitting the subject would come from the off camera flash unit giving me control of the intensity, distance, and direction of the light.
These panels were put together to record what we did AND as a way of sharing the techniques with fellow photographers.
Les presento a Chanchito, ese es su nombre, evidentemente por que es un chanchito.
Fue mi primer modelo de estudio. Y fue un extraordinario modelo :)
Les cuento que me compre dos flashes y un par de gatillos inalámbricos para poder disparar los flashes desde fuera de la camara, las fotos de los autitos de juguete y estas de Chanchito son los primeros experimentos.
