Same garden, same fence as these ones from earlier in the week …Lets Get Outdoors With Some Radio TTL! - PentaxForums.com … but the sun was not playing ball yesterday so I tried some with a second flash as hairlight from behind, with the mainlight in a 60cmx60cm softbox …. More 'flashy' looking for sure. This time I used Manual mode for the flash exposures (easily switched to with a press on the V6II group buttons).

K7; D FA 28-105mm; Cactus V6II / RF60x Flashes; ISO100; F8; 1/180th

Thanks for viewing and for your thoughts! Nigel

The lighting was perfect for these shots............well done.

The second flash just gives a pro-looking lift, Nigel … you just can't take pictures looking like these with an iPhone. These are ones they should get off you and get put on a wall.

perhaps my Microsoft Phone would do better?! .... Yes, DSLR still rules, even an oldie like my K7.

Thanks guys for your replies. I'm glad you liked the photos!
