This is a shoot that I have been rolling around in my head for some time. Finally got around to it.
The shot used a total of 4 strobes.
- 2 triggered wirelessly (the ones shown).
- 1 wired using a long sync cable (fired above just out of frame in a softbox)
- 1 fired using an optical triggering device (this was used to light the background. Shot through a DIY device similar to the "saber strip". I call it the STROBEZOOKA) .
This is NOT a photo composite.
I can post setup shots if anyone is interested.

Btw, i have started doing shoots for clients.. so, if anyone is interested in getting their family/kids/teens portrait done.. you can mail me at sowmya0304@gmail.com
Set Up _ 2 strob with square softbox in front of model, 2 strob with square softbox in side of model for sidelight & 1 more strob with square softbox in the back for background.
out for a stroll tonight with whicsy & the off camera flash, through a DIY softbox, mounted on the old crappy tripod & triggered by a home made pc sync cord.
whicsy said it was harsh. i guess it's time to start getting real gear.
i'm assuming that these would be typical light levels for night time portraits. at this level i was kinda stressing the limits of comfortable settings: 1/45sec, f/1.4, ISO-800. Seems like dustin does similar settings, but compensates for a slower aperature with better higher iso performance. I guess this pretty much, hopefully once & for all, rules out the 135 STF at night.

thanks for the fav Dusty.
time for some gels. maybe a start of a 365 strobe & bokeh series?
Look here and here for a shot of the source of colourful bokeh.

A bit of fun with strobes. Self-portrait. Strobe camera right on lightstand slightly higher than subject. Strobe behind, slightly left and way above subject. Pocketwizards.
I'm a bit behind today, so I'm posting and running. I'll catch up with everyone tomorrow. Thanks!

Say hello again to Marion. These pictures were taken during a spontaneous photo session next to our pool. Her tan was imported directly from the sunny beaches of Italy. She returned from her family vacation the prior day. Played around with the colors a bit, some skin retouching in Photoshop... et voilĂ !
Strobist info: The whole nine yards. My Nissin Di866 at full power shot into a Westcott umbrella from very high left. One bare LumoPro LP120 from the back left at 1/2 power for rim and water reflection. Another bare LP120 at 1/4 power to the front right for fill. All fired by Cactus V4 radio triggers.

Strobes: bare camera left on stand, bare camera right on floor
Messing around with strobes at a northern asylum, trying out cross lighting ;)
Two tone gold bangle bracelet done with beautiful Spiratone Anastigmat 150mm F4.5 Mount Bellows Lens and Sony camera. Used one light source with the mirrors
Another feature that the Vela flash has is a strobe mode. It can put out up to six flashes spaced from 10 to 250usec. Years ago I spent a lot of time making a deal delay flash controller that would fire my two microflash units in sequence with an adjustable delay. I never found a good photo to make with the set-up so I moved on.
Part of the issue is that you get the best results by using a non-reflective background because as the action moves the light from consecutive strobes will bleach out the earlier exposure making the objects look like ghosts.
So for this photograph I set up a hefty razor blade and shot a small lead ball at the blade. You can see how the impact torqued the blade and you can clearly see how the lead ball is cut neatly into two slices that fly apart.
The flash duration is 2usec and the separation is a guess at about 150usec.
I used my new D750 for this shot because it has much lower noise compared to the 5D Mk II.
This is the same stupid shot done with a microflash.

A third hot weekend in store. It's getting very old.
Cheers.
I am doing a car's for a week. I really like this, vivitar 285 under glass at full with red gel. Vivitar 283 add 3/4 power bouncing off slanted wall.
This was pure guesswork. I'm on a continuing quest to eliminate the orange cast from shots using artificial light, thought it'd be worth a go to use Calethia's strobe light, see what happened.
Seeming simple enough, of course it took twice as long as we'd expected, with both of us blind from firing off the strobe dozens of times to get the shot framed right, timed right. For awhile all we could see were afterimages of each other, and we stumbled around the room trying to shake it off.
But it worked! Yeah gods, it worked. So if anybody's got a huge studio light they'd like to part with, feel more than free to drop me a line.
BRIGHT LIGHT! BRIGHT LIGHT!
