| In the Garden Again
No gardening for me, just a good spot to set up the gear for portraits .... Here's three more recent ones, using two flashes, the main one in a softbox off to the right, and a rim light behind. Using the Cactus V6II trigger and RF60/x flashes, manual power mode... Pentax K7 - D FA28-105 - ISO140 - F 8.0 - 1/180th    Thanks for taking a look, and for all garden related feedback and chat  | |

I didn't take any "pull back" photos unfortunately, so you'll have to bear with my very bad drawing (you'll see why I was forced into photography instead of the fine arts!) ......  The "hair light" flash has a Gary Fong Powersnoot attached, which narrows the beam. | |

Attachment 411179 The "hair light" flash has a Gary Fong Powersnoot attached, which narrows the beam. Any thought on the distances? | |

Yes, that's my daughter, the round thing  It's all very close in, the softbox about 3ft from the faces, and the hair light about 4ft behind. I had to zoom right in to exclude the softbox, making tight framing. | |

For this lighting problem, we will assume our subject is a uniform sphere of radius 1...  Nice work! | |

Ah, now maths was a weak area for me as well ..... what with that and no drawing skills I probably should not have taken up using flash! Thanks Uncle and Brian for your interest ..... I do hope that others will take this as encouragement to try some two-light set-ups with family out in their gardens  | |
