Strobist lighting 102 varying the position and angle of light.
Single 580ex II at 1/32 power normally about 30cm from subject. Aperture varying from f8-f11.
See if you can reverse engineer the lighting.

These surfers use a strong stream in a river in Englischer garten in Munich, Germany, to practice their surfing skills. A very good idea.... ;)

#8/52 - 52 Weeks project
Lit by just my computer screens I can spend hours in just these two positions.
Late by a day. I've pretty much decided as long as I do 52 across the year and they're reasonably well spaced then it doesn't matter too much.
'Yorkshire Trench' was the name given to a front line position dug by units of the 49th (West Riding) Division near the Yser canal at Boesinghe in 1915/16. The Belgian archaeology group The Diggers worked on this site over many years and recovered much material and many human remains from the area. Their work was featured on The Forgotten Battlefield, a documentary made by BBC Producer John Hayes-Fisher. The publicity following this programme made the local authorities in the Ypres area keen on preserving some part of what The Diggers had uncovered, and in May 2003 the Yorkshire Trench & Dugout site was opened following much hard work on the part of the Diggers themselves.
What can be seen at this site is a whole section of the trench, at its original depth, with fire-steps and loopholes, and the entrances to two sections of tunnels and dugouts. The dugouts probably date from a later period, 1916/17, and due to the water level in this area are flooded and cannot be entered. However, on the surface level light stone 'paths' mark out the plan of the system below ground, which at one point is more than thirty feet below the surface.
The site is permanently open and free to visit. There are information panels in Flemish, English and French, and a reconstruction of the 'A Frame' duck-board supports. Livens projectors, British trench mortar weapons, have also been placed on the site, as many were found in the area beyond the trench towards the canal.
Sa Pa District is located in Lao Cai Province, north-west Vietnam, and 350 km north-west of Hanoi, close to the border with China. The Hoang Lien Son range of mountains dominates the district, which is at the eastern extremity of the Himalayas. This range includes Vietnam's highest mountain, Fan Si Pan, at a height of 3142m above sea level. The town of Sa Pa lies at an altitude of about 1650 m.
Sa Pa is a quiet mountain town and home to a great diversity of ethnic minority peoples. The total population of 36,000 consists mostly of minority groups. Besides the Kinh (Viet) people, there are mainly 5 ethnic groups in Sapa: Hmong, Dao, Tay, Giay and a small number of Xa Pho. Approximately 7,000 live in Sapa, the other 36,000 being scattered in small communes throughout the district.
The geographical location of the area makes it a truly unique place for many interesting plants and animals, allowing it to support many inhabitants. Many very rare or even endemic species have been recorded in the region.
Sa Pa townhall
The scenery of the Sa Pa region in large part reflects the relationship between the minority people and nature. This is seen especially in the paddy fields carpeting the rolling lower slopes of the Hoang Lien Mountains. The impressive physical landscape which underlies this has resulted from the work of the elements over thousands of years, wearing away the underlying rock. On a clear day, the imposing peak of Fan Si Pan comes into view. The last major peak in the Himalayan chain, Fan Si Pan offers a real challenge to even the keenest walker, the opportunity of staggering views, and a rare glimpse of some of the last remaining primary rain forest in Vietnam.
Geology, climate and human activity have combined to produce a range of very distinct habitats around Sa Pa. Especially important is Sa Pa’s geographic position, at the convergence of the worlds 14 “biomes” (distinct biographic areas), producing an assemblage of plant and animal species unique in the world.
This one is for the Strobist 102.2 exercise. This was the last taken. I bumped up the FStop because I was out of room. Shown as is with no exposure or color correction in photoshop. SB800 straight from the flash.
Recap in a sheet. A demonstration of how the ratio of the distance from the light source to the subject : distance from the subject to the background affects the relative lighting intensities. For the Strobist Lighting 102 class assignment.
The upper number has the distance (inches) from the flash face to the subject, the lower is the distance from the subject to the background. I kept the aperture constant (except for the last shot) and varied the flash power.
Lower Right - top view of the setup. Notes in my photostream.
