A portable ray of sunlight
28th July 2010
I photographed this old petrol pump in Manulla yesterday evening, but there was no sunlight so I decided I would try again this evening. Once again we had another very cloudy evening and so I brought my flashgun with me to create my own "sunlight". Modern flash is great and can be operated off camera wirelessly . In this case I used two flashguns, hand held about six feet to the left of the camera held above my head directing the light down onto the pump. The flash is ttl but the camera is in manual mode. I had no time to experiment but I am happy with the result I got, the two pictures are both " acceptable" but look very different.
I'd be interested to get your views.

By omnishots: I prefer the one without the flash Eamonn - is that acceptable?
