Just an off the cuff setup to try and snap some water drops.
My 18-135 just doesn't seem long enough for things like this. ;)
The string made it easy to get the drops in the right place every time.
At first I used the dropper to put water on the string, but after a while I realized that I could hold the dropper against the handle and the drops would pretty much be where I needed them every time, so I started using the dropper exclusively after a while.
Not pictured is my D80 wireless remote which I used to snap the photos.

Its February! This is my three year photography anniversary! I purchased my first camera (Nikon D40x) in February 2008. It has been an amazing 3 years of learning and growing.
I have worked extremely hard to pay for every single piece of equipment on my own (parents helping guide me along the way though).
The camera is pointed at some barbed-wire and two hummingbird feeders out the patio door. I have a Nikon SB-910 flash on a light stand camera left shooting out another patio door. Flash is triggered with the SU-800 which isn't in a line of sight but inside the IR bounces around enough to trigger the flash. I have clips holding open the blinds.
Nikon D4. Nikkor 500f4 G VR. TC1.4eII. Nikon SU-800 flash trigger. RRS Gimble Head. Gitzo CF tripod. Dell XPS Laptop.
This was the setup shot for this photo: Robyn.
The setup consisted of two flashes with two shoot-thru umbrellas. One brolly low to the ground and aimed up, one high and aimed down. Aim your camera between the gap in the umbrellas.
This gives a very even light over the entire face with minimal shadow. The few photos we did like this all came out great, very glamorous.

This is my hummingbird high speed flash photography setup.

Strobist info:
Bare Canon 580EXII in a 80x60 Softbox - Camera right
Nikon SB-26 with a CTO filter (I think it was a 1/2 cto) behind her
Canon flash is triggered by a Pocket Wizard II Plus, and the Nikon flash behind her is triggered by optical slave from the Canon flash
Golden Hour
Lighting here was made of 2 strobes, one as a main light for the model, and the other to add some sunset mood with some orange tones! So as the main light, I was using a Canon 580EXII in a 80x60 Softbox, which I'm using on location quite often! Also behind her I decided to put some orange filtered flash, as the sunset did not bring any rays of light to the place where we were! I wanted to have some orange tones in her here, so that was the way to do it! As a flash I was using a Nikon SB-26, pretty handy with the Optical slave feature, considering that I had only a pair of Pocket Wizards available at that time!

The setup for the picture of the flowers. The only thing different is that the transmitting Pocket Wizard is on the camera taking this picture rather than the camera that took the final picture of the flowers.
You can see some setup shots for other images here.
This was one of the most interesting photos of February 17th, 2008.

This is the setup shot for the previous picture in my Flickr photostream.
I've now included enough setup shots that I decided to create of Set of them, which you can see here if you find the pictures helpful. www.flickr.com/photos/9422878@N08/sets/72157642517882554/
It's true. This was a bit of a setup. I brought Tessa in to lie against Sole and neither one of them was in a hurry to get away. If fact, they are still more or less this after 30 minutes.
Dear friends, after so many mail requests here´s the setup for "Gravity Drink"
Two softboxes triggered at 1/8 , and two SB-800 wirelessly triggered towards the white wall at 1/8
Had an amazing weekend snowboarding and hanging out with friends, almost makes it so I'm not too bummed to have to get back to work tomorrow ;-)
I posted a setup shot in the comments if you are interested in seeing how I shot this one.
This is a two light setup, with the AB400 as the bg light and a 4x8 foam core fill card reflecting light back towards the bg.
AB800 in large softbox high and in front of subject as main. I was shooting at f9 160th of a sec. Using a tamron 17-50mm 2.8
No studio and I mean none would be complete without the dual 120v/btu oscillating fans/ac units.
Yes it was hot, but you must learn to use what you have and make the best of it. compromise, if you will. Just think of it as though your on a very beautiful humid caribbean island and go for it.
Any novice photographers in the Austin area with a DSLR wanting to get some hands on lighting experience, contact me for details.
This shows the general setup with sweep, lights and camera. We have additional lights to use under the sweep for bottom lighting. Even so, we could always use more lights, but this setup is pretty versatile. Next step is to mount some weights and wheels on the tripod to make it heavier and more moveable.
the desk is hermann miller red line, which is, sadly, defunct. my g4 powerbook is stashed below (you can see it peeking...)
Here's a simple setup shot for a family portrait shoot I did today at a community hall.
There's a Canon 580ex lighting the backdrop and a 430ex with a white umbrella for the fill light. I didn't think there would be enough light at first but they all came out pretty sweet. Will post some photos from the session soon.
My typical setup for astro imaging on my laptop in the observatory, via UltraVNC viewer indoors on my main PC. Screen capture from my 24" monitor.
Another screen not shown, is the one with DeepSkyStacker Live running (essential for the FWHM, Score and dx/dy graphs).
I have a three screen setup on my study PC.
Keep it simple ;-)

This is my Palermo office desk setup (you can find more details about my office setup HERE). A Logitech V200 cordless mouse and M$ Natural Ergonomic Keyboard are tucked away on a sliding keyboard shelf. The monitor is a Samsung 173P mounted to an Ergotron Neo-Flex LCD arm which swings forward approximately 15" when in use and frees up the entire desk area underneath it.
All cables are hidden from view using pegboard and adhesive backed nylon mounting bases as shown in this photo and this photo.
This is actually how my desk looks after clearing all items except for the things I use on a regular basis. There are two shelves in the room which store books, notepads, and other office supplies that are used once in a while.
The photo is for my Declutter The Mess Under Your Desk! blog post.
