I was out walking Chuck, my golden retriever nephew, planning to take some long exposure shots after the sun had set. This swan came up to us hoping that we had brought some food. The long exposure shot will have to wait, my battery ran out and I got cold.
Strobist info:
Nikon SB-600 through white umbrella. Triggered by Cactus V4. Lumapro LP 120 as fill, triggered optically.
My brother and Chuck (the dog) is away for the weekend. Which gives me the opportunity to play with my new flashes.
Any tips on improvements are, probably, appreciated :oD
Strobist info:
SB-600 with shoot through umbrella placed left above camera. LP120 bare at 1/8 between legs pointing towards camera to create blown out effect and lens flare. SB-600 triggered with Cactus V4, LP120 triggered optically be SB-600.

Tried to use a light stand as a tripod. It did not work that well, specially not in the wind.
Its not easy focusing with the d90 using only the screen as reference. Some more practice might help. The somersault, or almost whipout, is near the end of the video.
Small photo excursion with Henrik to Obrestad light house. Why? Never been there before :oD
