Per my NYE resolution to practice more with flash I got out the radio triggers and couple flash units and stands and with my treat pouch on my belt I induced Bandit to pose for me.
Very well done! A most handsome subject, too.

Nice work, I could use Blu as a practice target for lighting but nowadays he is usually in the same pose he was new years day above , I like the use of gels
The camera, a K70 makes a noise just prior to the flash firing. Bandit learned to blink when he heard the click before the flash, As a consequence I have a bunch of squinty eyed doggy portraits.

A friend's standard poodle, Maryanne having a great time on the lake ice yesterday.
Luna doesn't like the ice so she stayed home.

A frozen lake doesn't have any rock formations to pose on. Why bother going?

A couple of soft practice shots, both wide-open with a Mamiya/Sekor 55mm f/1.4.
Yes, both dogs are well overdue a trim.

Thoreau noted and described in Walden Pond the sounds that ice could make. When it shifts and perhaps cracks across the entire width of the pond, the deep sound generated is amplified by the ice sheet acting like a drum head. It might be called "unearthly," but it is as earthly as sound gets, just a bit unfamiliar, mysterious, and a little intimidating for humans, and wary Luna dogs.

The variety of sounds is pretty neat too. Sometimes crackly, sometimes like a whale song or even a Star Wars blaster.
It's weird at first but I love it.
