Another softbox left and low facing up to model.
A vintage Royal typewriter with manual metal keys stuck together, illuminated by a strobe or flash with a snoot wrapped it. The directed light came from the right in a dark room.
Fun. A good way to entertain myself these days. An earlier version from ten years ago in first comment box.

This image was created from multiple exposures blended together in Photoshop CS6 layers using the "Lighten" blend mode. All exposures were taken with a single Paul C. Buff Einstein strobe with a 22" beauty dish attached to a Elinchrom boom arm. If you send me a FlickrMail message, I'll be more than happy to send you some information on mostly how I photograph this style and what equipment I use, along with some YouTube video links that help explain this process.

When I went out to get the paper this morning this flower was open on one of our cacti so I brought it inside to photograph where it's easier to control the light.
The main light was a Yongnuo manaul flash in an 8.5 inch Lastolite soft box positioned at camera left and just out of the frame. Fill light is from a hand held mirror at camera right. The flash and my tripod mounted camera were triggered with a Yongnuo RF-603N. The flash and my tripod mounted camera were triggered with a Yongnuo RF-603N.

I picked these succulent flowers from the garden this afternoon, and brought them inside to photograph, where it's easier to control the light.
This was a two light setup using Yongnuo manual strobes in 8.6 inch Lastolite soft boxes positioned in front of the flowers, on both sides, and pointing at the center at a 45 degree angle for even lighting. The strobes and my tripod mounted program were triggered with a Yongnuo RF-603N.

This is an old sea shell that I brought back from Baja California, Mexico years ago.
Lighting stuff: Side lighting from a Yongnuo manual flashes in soft boxes on either side of the shell. The strobes and my tripod mounted camera were triggered with a Yongnuo RF-603N.

Walking from St Pancras to the Tube station, I happened to walk past this connecting tunnel from Kings Cross. Thinking it would make a cool photo, I doubled back through the herds of commuters.
The weather is cooler which means it's time to get back into the studio! This was done during a shoot with a friend today, and I'm quite pleased with the result. I can't take credit for the pose, it was her idea....

Ok here are the shots from a very recent very out of the blue last minute shoot with designer and all round sweet heart Erica Stagg. Prior to the shoot I think we’d talked once I’d never seen the collection and had no idea what I was shooting and went out on a whim hoping the location was well, more than suitable and turns out it was more than adequate, so here are the shots from Erica Stagg’s 2009/2010 summer capsule range…
I know I say this all the time for a lot of the shoots I work on but Erica’s range is nothing far from amazing, the concept behind each piece is clear in plain sight and well executed, with each piece really speaking for itself, and Anna our model despite coming straight from a viewing and been dead tired pulled of every shot and let both herself and the garments equally as powerful frame after frame, and let’s just say wasn’t afraid to get her hands dirty…
Big thanks to Erica for letting my concept to come through in the shots and having it been a little bit more collaborative than usual and letting me try some new techniques, regardless of how the shots looked these were shot in full daylight in the middle of the day and mid afternoon using a kind of light masking technique I’m trying much like they use in the twilight movies only a little different and my own creation…
Big thanks to all the girls for putting up with me as usual I know it’s a hard task and they did without complaint, so here are the shots enjoy…

A leftover image from Orchidmania 2008. Red Cymbidium hybrid in the lobby near a black cabinet. Strobed. (Data doesn't say the flash fired; maybe I didn't strobe it.)
More my kind of shots.
Subject: Whirlwind HAR.10 XP346
Strobist:
Subject lit with 3 strobes at 1/4 power and 2 flashes inside into the cockpit, over a long exposure.
Adjusted the contrast in PS to give a really overboard effect, the original image just lacked the little impact. Love the way the sky has turned out with the cloud streaks and colours.
An new version to took but based along my original photo.

Subject
A pair of fishing hooks, each less than an inch long, form a heart. Fishing is a #SimplePleasure that I most associate with wonderful times spent with my father and stepfather at various times of my life.
It was shot for several challenges simultaneously:
Macro Mondays "Less Than An Inch"
Flickr Friday's "Simple Pleasures"
Smile On Saturday's "On Pure White"
Weekly Theme Challenge's "Hearts"
Sunday Lights "Only Your Best"
Lens
On the body we have the SMC Pentax-DA L 18-55mm F3.5-5.6 AL WR. It's the kit wide-angle zoom. Reversed onto that lens is the SMC Pentax-A 1:1.7 50mm.
The EXIF data only shows the information for the body-attached lens. Even at 55mm it has mild vignetting when used this way. At 18mm, only a small central circle is visible. The reversed lens is fixed at 50mm and is wide open at f1.7.
The image is not cropped or modified in any way.
Lighting
One Pentax AF540FGZ strobe is mounted on the body as the wireless master, aimed at an improvised white-paper reflector. A second AF540FGZ capped with a generic snap-on diffuser is the wireless slave, laying just outside the frame.

Daffodil in a vase, lit by Pixapro Pika 200 Pro strobes. Background lit by a Pika at 1/32 power fitted with a standard reflector. Both sides of the vase lit by a Pika in a Stripbox, behind and to the sides of the subject directed to either side of the vase. To be honest, I think it worked better with a red rose.
Me and Lars went to a place in umeå called Gammlia to take som night photos. ended up playing with strobes. :)
Post and run kinda shot! lol, would check your awesome streams in a while.
One bare strobe behind model @ 1000 power and illuminated her face by a single light through umbrella (@ her right) that wasn't triggered.
Took this using the Fuji 80mm macros, so I could compress the perspective and bring the Godox MF-12 flash head into the picture along with the dying flower
One of those dull days so time to experiment. A flash on full power under the tree with nice coloured leaves on the path and mess around with DOF and ambient light... its a million miles away but there's promise. Have a great week, thanks for previous comments.
A caribbean octopus (Octopus briareus) in a row pore rope sponge (Aplysina Cauliformis). This is my second post from this encounter - it was just too much fun to leave at one.
You only find caribbean octopuses during the night and even then, they don't like our lights. (Note, not "octopi" because unlike the Latin derived "fungus", octupus is from Greek.) This is the only time I have found one "up" off the reef. I don't know exactly why it was there but it stayed for quite some time despite me shining a light on it and hitting it with strobes. I wish I were able to figure out why it was so motivated to be in the rope sponge, but I so enjoyed the encounter nonetheless.
For a sense of scale, my guess is that if the octopus fully tucked itself into a ball, it wouldn't be much larger than your fist. But those arms could outstretch to wrap around a soccer ball, maybe even a basketball.
Here we see it in its prettiest iridescent blue. In an instance, generally when hunting, it can turn white with brown spots. I don't do video, but I have to admit that a video would do a much better job than a still image to capture how amazing these creatures are.
This was fun. First time I tried capturing smoke I was pretty lazy so didn't take time to set it up and so had to do a lot of cleaning up in post. This time I set it up right, black background and everything. I even took the time to gel the flash for different colors (made gels out of those colorful report covers). All I pretty much did in post is increased the contrast and put the different colors together in PS.
Its amazing how much time you save by taking the time to do something right the first time :D
For ODC "Smoke
Strobist. Vivitar camera right angled down at smoke. White paper to reflect light on opposite side of smoke opposite the flash. DIY gels on flash.
I use an Einstein 640 strobe with a 22" beauty dish & diffusion sock mounted on an Elinchrom Handheld Boom Arm. I typically fire my camera off with a wireless trigger, and that in turn fires my CyberSync™ Trigger Transmitter on my Nikon D800 to fire off my strobe via a CyberSync™ Transceiver. I end up taking several exposures, both high and low, while walking around the vehicle. I'll layer the images in Photoshop and switch each layer to the 'lighten' blend mode. I have been using layer masks to remove some highlight details from the strobe reflection, but I don't always find it works all the time. 1970 Plymouth Duster, 2016 Mountain Thunder Car Show in Old Fort, North Carolina. I shot the car in full daylight with about 5 stops of ND filtration and had the flash power at maximum.
