What I did last night instead of blogging

Went to Lightroom class and then when on a photowalk to shoot models. Somebody’s gotta do it. Still working on the photos, but here’s one of the best.

Lightroom Class Shoot

I set a Nikon SB-800 flash behind and to the right for edge lighting. The on-camera popup flash triggers the SB-800, so you get a little cross-lighting, with some light from front left and some from rear right.

I had the SB-800 set low, like 1/64 and I partially blocked the built-in flash with my hand. I need to order one of these guys to reduce the built-in’s output when using remote flash.

    I’ve accomplished much the same by adapting a regular IR filter to a hot shoe flash and using that to trigger remote flashes. BTW did you know IR Ektachrome has been gone for some years now? Any that you might find is way out of date, unless possibly it’s been kept in liquid helium.
