On Saturday, in honour of Veterans Awareness Week, 59 Commando Squadron, Royal Engineers staged a Beach Assault on Weymouth Beach, followed by a bridge building exercise. 5,000 blanks were fired in the conflict.
I wish I could shoot accurately with my camera held that high!

Is this due to the modded GI trigger causing sensor interference or is my sensor in my camera having problems?

Wonderful day. One of the best of mine :)
This is my getting not so little sister. :) Have a great day!

A shot from the Bristol Strobist Christmas Shoot. The outfits that both Kae and Hannah wore were perfect for this shot. The angel and the bride... It shouldn't be too hard to come up with a story to match the image.

Immediately applied MikeyG's - Kodak Tri-X 400 Auto preset. This shot had B&W written all over it for the lovely glow that it brings to the image.
Standard exposure adjustments and applied a negative clarity to the image to give it a nice soft "glow".
I used the adjustment brush to paint a -1 stop Burn all across the image then using a low Flow erased the mask. This brought back the exposure fully to their faces allowing it to fade down their bodies but keeping the Burn surrounding them as a vignette.
I added sharpnees and clarity to their hair, eyes,lips, the wings and dress details to return some of what the first negative clarity adjustment removed.
I then added a little more contrast via the Curves as the image was looking a little flat from all the changes.
Some spot healing of black dots on the floor and background.
PT Lens
Fixed a little lens distortion (not much as the Nikon 24-70mm 2.8 has very little to fix. Their feet were looking a little bit clownish though (I'm probably the only person who would have noticed it).
Photoshop CS4
A little bit of healing brush to the more serious scuffs on the floor, I can see more but I'm not that much of a perfectionist with those things.
The trigger system exists to ensure that all switches fire simultaneously. [Later,we'll do a slide show that goes over the trouble shooting required to coordinate the trigger system and to get it to work at suitable currents.]
This was as far away as I could get from the flash: 75 metres. With aerial extensions (photograph of extended aerial) in the range of 5" to 20" I was able to get about 50% of triggered flashes. The flash in the centre of the photograph. It was hung at head height from a branch as in this photograph.
Orientation and position of the aerial mattered. The position of my fingers holding the trigger mattered. I also discovered that it mattered whether the trigger was attached to my camera. These seemed to affect optimum length as well as reliability, so more experimentation is required to find optimums and good reliable working compromises.
The good news is that at about 40 metres (130 feet) any length of extension from five to ten inches in any orientation worked very reliably indeed. At 75 metres (246 feet) they worked about half the time. I need to find a venue where I can play with longer distances, or perhaps a way of crippling reception so I can optimise aerial length in easier surroundings. More research is needed, but so far very encouraging and most usable results!

Testing the effects of the gels before an outing.
Strobist setup info: 2 SB26s and an SB600 at about 1/8th power. An SB26 was triggered via an Elinchrom Skyport and the other were slaved - the SB600 needed a light-senstitive hotshoe trigger.
very sensitive, even just a drop of water can trigger the flash

I recently purchased some radio frequency triggers so that I could take pictures in bright sunlight, and still use my strobes. With line of sight triggering like the Nikon Creative Lighting System, it's often a problem to use remote strobes in broad daylight.
Before I turned on the strobes, I set a manual exposure on the camera that would underexpose the flower and plant by one to two stops. I then lit the flower with an SB600 in a snoot from underneath in an attempt to make the interior of the flower light up. I lit the top of the plant with a Strobie 130 from scottrobertstudio.com to the right of the flower and pointing down at it. Both strobes were in manual mode and were triggered by Tiny Triggers from scottrobertstudio.com. I just experimented until I got the look I wanted.
This looks best when viewed large on a dark background, and you can see it that way by pressing "L".
Other plants and flowers that I've photographed using strobes can be seen in my Strobe Lit Plant set. In the description, I list resources that I've used to learn how to light with off camera flash. www.flickr.com/photos/9422878@N08/sets/72157628079460544/...

Welcome to the family, my pink fellows.
Strobist info:
One Nikon SB-24 (bounced off the ceiling) triggered by Cactus Wireless Trigger on the right side of the camera.
I recently joined Marlow Camera Club. Tonight was a 'hands on' night about triggering flash. With a dedicated flashgun one could use much faster shutter speeds but tonight in order for everyone to work at the same time we set our cameras to 'B' and held the shutter open in darkness at the times the flash was expected to fire. This resulted in seeing a double image of the popping balloon - the balloon while it was whole (lit mostly by the match that was about to pop it) and then the shrivelled rubber lit by the flash. In the balloon's case the flash was triggered by sound - the sound of the pop. The falling letters and coloured balls were triggered by the breaking of an infra red beam.

They can bite and they can smash their head into divers so that a mask can break. So leave them alone ;)

Another great opportunity to replace a broken piece to perfectly good tools. The trigger to my hose attachment broke due to poor design. The original trigger had a very thin arm that broke off soon after I purchased the nozzle. I was able to monkey the trigger with lots of effort so I did not throw it away. I am glad I did not because the 3D printed replacement came out strong and with good fidelity. One of the greatest benefits of owning a 3D printer has been the ability to salvage so many tools and other belongings.
