About Arkansas Strobist

This group is for strobe enthusiasts with an Arkansas connection and was created to accompany Strobist, the off-camera lighting blog.

To avoid having your photos deleted from the pool, please make sure they exemplify the strobist technique - photos can be removed without warning during busy periods - and if for any other reason administrators deem necessary.

If you don't know how to use your flash(es) off-camera, check out Strobist.com and start reading.

Please read....

1. Ensure that off-camera flash is used in the photo you upload. (On camera flash is fine if it is used to trigger other off-camera flashes.)

2. Include lighting details starting with the number of flashes and how they were triggered - preferably in the Caption, but using a comment line is OK too. The idea of this Pool is to share pictures taken with off-camera flash, and the details of how (the more detail the better.) Hey, we wanna learn from you...

3. Ensure your photos are work safe as many of our members browse from work. If you have something you'd like to share that would not be appropriate for work viewing, just post the (word) link in a discussion thread with a little warning.

This is not your private art house. People read this site at work. A lot. If you would not leave the photo up on your monitor in an office environment while you head off to lunch, it is probably not appropriate for here. And if your photo is deleted, do not re-insert it.

Specifically: Topless women - even with their hands over their boobies - are better posted in the groups that cater to that stuff. Ditto full nudes, butt-floss bikinis and very suggestive poses.

Be aware that people from many cultures view this group, and what may be art in your country might very well be illegal in someone elses. Be respectful of that.

It is common sense. Please do not push it. Thanks.

4. Did we mention the 5-a-day limit? Oh, yeah. We did.

5. This should go without saying, but I'll say it anyway: Please do not use the threads as a classifieds section. Selling your stuff on Flickr is against the site's TOS, and it endangers the status of our group. Thanks.
