Thank you! Getting a hang on this strobist technique. Much thanks to you Sean. You were one of my main inspirations and source of knowledge for getting into strobism.











A shot back from the wildflower season in Anza Borrego (not sure if I ever posted this on TDP before.) This was when I first got into SLR photography and did not know much about controlling DOF. I borrowed the 100mm f/2.8 macro from a friend and just started shooting. Should have shot this at a narrower aperture.

Here's one from me. Yellow food colouring dropped into blue coloured water. This is a collision of two drops. As the first hits the blue water and bounces back up the second drop collides with it. I did this all by hand (no sound/ IR trigger) so I got about 10 keepers out of about 360 shots this session. The moment is captured by triggering the flash only while the shutter is open in a darkened room. Takes a LOT of patience but it's pretty cool when you get a good one.

It's a mushroom! Very nicely done! Indeed, a lot of patience is needed when trying to do water drops by hand. I'd be jumping if I can't get something like this. []
