I have always liked this guy.

Maybe it is because he has been on my bookshelf for forty years. Or maybe I'm seeing him in a new light. I have been playing with my new "O-Flash". Thanks Nikonian72. Comments welcome.

Those shots turned out nicely. Interesting position, must be tax time!

Very nice lighting! The O Flash looks like it did the job. I just got one too. It has been so nice out I have only played a little with it.

Thanks Erv, it does look like this O Flash is going to be useful.

Exposure looks about right for this distance. I suggest a more neutral-colored background (IMO black does not compliment your subject & hides your pedestal). Turn your camera vertically, and move closer to subject.

Thinking about it. Good situation to control variables, and play with exposure and background color.

Thanks for the feedback Nikonian72. I was unsure re light loss thorugh the O-Flash and power output of my SB700. I think I got close to what I was going for. I agree with your thoughts re background color and portrait orientation, will play with that.
