Creative Decisions

Creative Decisions

I recently decided to really work at becoming more creative. However, the gap between thought, action and results can often be rather wide. Tonight as I was coming home from work I encountered a broken sprinkler head spewing prodigious amounts of water. I have always considered water and flash an interesting combination. So I grabbed a small umbrella and threw this self portrait together. Notice the police car behind me in the shot. Only moments later I was confronted with a slightly aggressive but curious Pinellas County sheriff wanting to know what I was up to. I explained the situation and everything was hunky dory, but with no small amount of consternation on my part. All of this took place in a bank parking lot. Shot with a single Nikon SB-600 flash mounted on a stand, camera left. Bare bulb. Flash triggered using Commander mode on a Nikon D90 camera with -2/3 flash exposure compensation. Shutter priority mode, ISO 800, f/1.8, 1/80 sec shutter speed. The shot probably could have been improved with another flash behind me maybe giving a little rim light. But if I had done that then the cop probably would have arrested me or something. I got pretty wet despite the umbrella but I guess it was worth it.

Loop Lit Little Dude

Loop Lit Little Dude

This time the loop lit little dude gets the soft treatment with an off camera Nikon SB-600 flash, camera left, shot thru an umbrella using C, or Commander mode Nikon CLS. Fuggetaboutit and shoot Nikon, not Canon, and you will forever be a happy camper in all of your strobe endeavors. Flash once again gelled with a .25 Rosco CTO. Shutter speeed 1/30 sec, iris diaphragm f/2.4, ISO 800. Nikon D90 camera set to Manual mode. Sweet bokeh and shallow DOF thanks to a common but always superior Nikkor lens.

No, the front tire is not flat. J. just finished doing some trick or other and came down hard on it. Shot taken with a single off camera SB-600 gelled with a .25 Rosco CTO. Flash triggered using C, or Commander, mode on a Nikon D90 with a Nikkor 35mm f/1.8 lens. Camera set to manual exposure f/2.0, 1/180 sec, and SB-600 at around 1/8 power. Flash was just laid on the ground camera right. Merry Christmas!
