"Do not Fear the Flash!"
01/02/2010
That's my New Year's resolution. So I am reading a book on the Nikon Creative Lighting System, which some say is the best portable lighting system in the world (!). Here is my first attempt at off-camera flash. Other shots can be seen here: http://bit.ly/6vOIk5
I have a long way to go but I am beginning to appreciate the value of the system and "getting the flash off the darn camera" as Rick Sammon would say. Feedback welcome. Thanks.
Off camera SB 600 flash, Nikon 35mm lens
Also - please note about today's date: "Thoreau never had one during his lifetime. Neither did George Washington nor Albert Einstein. Today in the United States, which uses the month/day/year format for dates, there is a rare chance to celebrate a palindrome date - 01/02/2010 - which reads the same forward as it does backward."
