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.

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.

- 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.
Its called a Boulle Credenza , its Victorian , so its a 19th century piece , made in France or England . Circa 1855-70 .

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
Branded under their 'Yellow Flash' livery scheme for the 50&51 St Budeaux - Derriford Hospital routes, Plymouth Citybus ADL Enviro400 525 WJ65BYR is snapped passing Plymouth Railway Station in some fine late afternoon sunshine we had back in May. With Cornwall now being very much MMC dominated I must admit I have warmed to the original Enviro400 design which if you ask me still doesn't look all that dated? ;-)
Even if I told you I know you won't believe
It's like I see my whole life

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.
April 11, 2026: Retired Santa Clarita Signal newspaper photographer Dan Watson demonstrates a century-old flash powder gun used with a Graflex camera before the 1930s introduction of flash bulbs. Dan was onstage after receiving a Lifetime Achievement Award during the Press Photographers Association of Greater Los Angeles (PPAGLA) annual banquet held at the Arizona State University California Center, in downtown Los Angeles. Master of Ceremonies, Jim Thornton, is on the right,
Dan's great uncle, George Watson, founded the Press Photographers Association of Greater Los Angeles (PPAGLA) in 1936. A 1919 image of George Watson, with the same Graflex camera, is on the left.
Dan Watson is the 10th Watson family photographer who has covered Los Angeles history for 150 years. The ASU California Center is located in the former Los Angeles Herald-Examiner Building.
This optical phenomenon known as the Green Flash appeared just after sunset and was only there for a second or two.
At least I think it's the elusive green flash you can sometimes see as the sun sets, even with a 600mm focal it's a large crop but I never thought I'd see such a rare optical phenomena. Wish I had the chops to do a series of pics together to show how it changed but you can see that on the Wikipedia page :
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Green_flash
Seems there are different types, not sure if this is a mock-mirage green flash.
The Kevin Ayer's song ' Red, Green and You Blue ' almost fits the picture perfectly !
