SB600 @ 1/64 triggered by RF-602
45" Westcott shoot-thru umbrella
I wanted to see how even the light was with the traditional way of mounting the strobe. As the first picture shows the light is hitting the top portion of the umbrella.
The second shot shows the strobe mounted closer to the centerline of the umbrella. Yes, as you'll see below, the umbrella adapter is mounted upside down. I did that so that I could tilt the speedlite down towards the centerline. The light hits it in the middle and spreads evenly.
Just seems to me now that to get good even light through the umbrella put it closer to the centerline. Thoughts?
Strobist: 2 strobes, 1 at full power pointing up at the ceiling, one firing at 1/4th power into a plastic bag about 1 foot from the camera.
Fun at the Studio, where our students learn how to shot a variety of styles, from Fashion to Products.
November 3, 2007 -- My 350Z. There wasn't a whole lot I could do with how bright the garage was. Photo taken by Adam Lyon at the Seattle Flickr Meetup Strobist UW Garage Meet 3.
Strobist info: 2 Vivitar 285HVs at full power, snooted and pointed roughly at the wheels.
First night out with my new strobe setup:
Vivitar285H with Umbrella camera left
430Ex on right hitting the wall
STE-2 hitting the 430ex
Next time I'd angle the 430ex to get a better light on the wall and 'No Skateboarding" sign.

So this was my first attempt at off camera flash. Used my 430exii on stand with wireless trigger shot through umbrella. Put umbrella on camera left. Thanks to my wife and Inga being my guinea pigs=). shot with 70-200 f4. I cant wait to do more attempts with the single strobe approach. Let me know what you think.
One of the six shots I used to spell the letters of my name in a 4 x 4 square shelf in my room (see composites for full effect here and here). Camera was set to bulb and the flash was fired in each shelf individually in sequence. Black shelves, red wall behind and green gel on strobe.
Some barrel distortion from the kit lens (but it was the only thing wide enough I have at the moment) but other than that I like it (even when you can see my hand multiple times). -
Shameless self promotion: Freelance Motion Graphics and Photography
This is my canon 28-135mm lens. this is the lens that I use the most when I simply want a good all around lens. I have taken many, many, MANY amazing photos through this lens and it holds many memories in its elements.
in my last photo, I put a small list of things that I am currently planning on buying, when it comes down to the equipment topic.
many of you know that I previously owned a Canon 1D DSLR pro body that just didn't work out for me... it was fast and fun, in good light. but it was very primitive when it came down to low light and image playback, not to mention pre-set color filtering.
I have, however, decided to return to the 1D pro line for another chance with canon's legendary EOS 1 series.
hopefully, by early summer, 2010, I will own a used canon eos 1D MK IIN to pair nicely with my 30d. I also plan on purchasing two L series lenses nearly covering a range of 17-200mm with a small gap in the standard range (40-70mm).
hopefully, by purchasing these tools, I will be able to deliver even better photos to my friends here on flickr, my family and friends here in Columbia, TN, and those all around the world who view my photos, rather they know me or not.
By the way, this is a strobist shot shot with 3 flashes arranged around the lens accordingly. SOOC.
Playing with strobes; .40 Beretta subject. Red laser down the barrel, SB-28 snooted/gridded with light green gel for background, AB800 with softbox on camera left.
SB-800 off a umbrella on camera right
To be honest, the strobe light flashes way too quickly for me to get an accurate shot of it with my camera. I was snapping pictures essentially at random, as quickly as I could, and one of them came out like this.
I was recently voted "Best Photographer in Ventura County", which you can read about here if you're bored. I'm doing a promotional postcard to capitalize on the marketing opportunity this creates, and this is the underlying photo.
