I got bored at work again.

 

Thought Flash needed some armor, but not have it too bulky like in Injustice. Something more tight fighting and streamlined as to make him go as fast as possible with the least amount of drag.

After processing, the delicate gold inflorescence with flash is breathtaking, preserving details. Just for comparison, I have included the same White-Chested Emerald without flash, again almost a different bird in appearance. Without the flash the namesake emerald colors predominate. I hope this drives home the point that you need to take photographs both with and without flash to fully represent any particular bird species.

So if you haven't noticed yet I recently deleted my Flash I posted on Friday. The reason for that is that I want to properly start a new Flash series, (With origin story, etc.) So I am planning out a new Flash series (Even thought the last series was like 1 issue) I hope you understand. New Flash series coming soon! Probably mid/end of this week maybe delayed to next weekend.

It's been so long since I've uploaded a picture to Flickr, I almost forgot how! I hope all my Flickr pals are doing well!

 

Here's a 60 year old remote control to my 1955 Zenith Touraine Flash-Matic tv set.

10 YEAR FLASH BACK TO 2011

Cámara Vs Cámara

Inspired by some of my friends flash work, I thought i would spend some time practising. It was selfie time!!!

 

I was playing with two light set ups. Although I couldn't take this to the street, it will be workable in a modified format.

 

The key light is camera right in a soft box and a rogue flashbender diffusion panel to get some double diffusion going on. It is at 1/4 power. I have a black board camera left next to me and facing the light to add some shadow to the left hand side of my face (my walls are cream coloured and very close and I was getting too much reflection).

 

I have got a second flash in a diffusion cap and with a brown gel on it bouncing off the ceiling (I went for brown to match the wood colour of the environment). I have also blocked it from hitting me with a foam board. Power is at 1/8th and this was acting as a light for the background and some general fill.

 

I used my relatively crappy Nikon D3100 to have something to focus on and to add something else to the picture. I haven't quite got it focused on my eyes but for a selfie it will do.

 

There was very little done in lightroom, I think I mainly increased the contrast. In photoshop I reduced the hotspot on my forehead, sharpened the image, desaturated a little and increased the blues in the shadows in colour balance.

 

Quite happy with how it turned out, given the terrible model who had no dress sense and was terrible at being directed :-)

  

Both flahses were Nissin Di866 v2

- www.kevin-palmer.com - I love seeing lightning under the stars and it doesn't happen very often around here. This storm was producing near continuous flashes and I haven't seen anything like it this year.

sveglia alle 5 per andare a cercare l'Empusa pennata ed ecco che verso le 7.30 circa troviamo questa apina ancora addormentata a testa in giù,ringrazio ancora riccardo per il flash,per il cavalletto,per il pannellino e per la mattinata passata ;)

 

(forse un pochino micromossa,ma con un secondo di esposizione e un filetto di vento non son riuscito a fare di più,ma chissene)

Flash experiments

More fun with fill flash. I was playing with the flash speed to both stop those fast beating wings and bring out the colors and irridescence of this Costa's Hummingbird.

It's like I see my whole life

I havn't posted a BW for a while so I though I would mix it up.

This is Flash Lake, one of the Lightning Lakes in Manning Provincial Park. I took this shot early last year when Kristen and I hiked up to Frosty Mountain.

Hozomeen Mountain can be seen in the distance.

Aaah, you all know these folks, right? Some citations:

"Nono, no flash, flashlight is always the wrong light!"

"I prefer daylight so much, because it is so *natural.*"

"I **only** use natural daylight, because it is the only light, that preserves my colors."

And so on.

 

I say: Bullshit!!!! :-)))

 

From left to right:

1. Daylight shot, 1/250 second, sooc

2. Underexposed Version of 1. (two stops, simulated in Adobe Camera Raw)

3. Shot with HSS flash, 1/1000 second, sooc

4. Dito, after minor ACR and PS tweaks

 

Most interesting thing: All shots have the same fixed constant White Balance: :T = 5500 Kelvin. :-)

No tweaks here, its all just natural magic! :-)

Well, if you shoot a sunset and overexpose (to get more of your model than just a silhouette), your water and sky will be white. But if you exposre right.... hmmm, wow, golden shine!

 

While having fun with shooting food splashy subjects, I started to feel a little hungry.

Setup shots here and here.
