It might not look like it in this shot, but I'm pretty sure this guy was thrashing about wildly when I made this image. Thank you, wireless flash photography.

wow! this is the guitarist from He Is Legend too... i've seen them once and he used to headbang a lot and his glasses never ever seemed to be about to fall or something... hahaha

how you made it wirelessly on the D3 without the flash of the camera? wifi?

Hey Rubén, thanks. You're right, his glasses were firmly in place, he seemed to have them under control.

I triggered an SB-600 through commander mode with an SB-800.

I love CLS, makes me want to do ever more complex stuff.
All the more to go horribly wrong on the night, but still.

I still can't get the hang of flash at shows. I can do it anywhere else, just not at shows.

This is amazing. You're so inspiring :)

Hey Andrew and Tasha, thanks for your comments.

I think this was the first time I'd used a wireless flash setup for a gig aside from the shoot with DJ Paul van Dyk, and it was an interesting experience. PVD didn't move around much compared to a rock band!

Getting the key light off-camera was essential for this shot. I'd definitely try it out some time!

I absolutely love the yellow outline of the guitar. Great job with the flash here!

Sweet! Any modifiers on the SB-600, or just bare flash?

Hey Tor, thanks! This is the SB-600 with the built-in prism diffuser down over the face.
