Tried using an old strobe that my friend had recently picked up. Fired manually upper right. Please let me know what you think!

Playing around with my speedlights.
I used my two speedlights, one with just the plastic diffuser and the other through the umbrella angled farther out. She is looking just over the umbrella basically. There was a gold reflector to her other side.

My sister and cousin in the yard playing basketball and football. Used a Canon 580 ex II flash as 1/2 power with Canon battery pack for the basketball pictures with pocket wizards.
This is a picture of my strobes outsite screen... yea this is all that I can see. Nice. so if I want to call someone I have to do it from memory.
rey brought strobes for me to try out. luckily he has two triggers so we'll be able to share strobes at events if say we're in a reception hall or something. very cool!
this was the result of using them in my living room. it was dark out, but this looks like 10 AM to me.
Testing out a radio trigger for my strobes. I picked them up on Ebay for $20 a set. As you can imagine, their quality is equivilent to their price. I've already had to break out the soldering iron. Slight modifications and repairs.
Now all I have to do is figure out why they will spontaneously start flashing without any provocation from me. I might have to put down ESD (Electostatic discharge) mats in the studio.
Wouldn't that suck?
This was my first time trying stroboscopic photography. I would like to try doing something like this again. It was hard to remain perfectly still while other parts of my body were moving, thus, the blur on my face. I like how the movement of the volleyball was captured. Timing this right was a pain, but like I said, I would like to revisit this technique again.
