    I just follow the tutorial provided from the strobist blog here.


    I guess its up to me to get more creative now.

    I love them, they look pretty nice. I also viewed the tutorial, it looks indeed rather simple, I really should buy a flash transmitter and try it myself some time..

    Ok Todd, You have me interested. Today, I was home alone, rain, wind and sleet outside; so what is one to do? Let's play in the water. Here is my first attempt at this: Sorry, no frames.

    Well done Bob!


    I like the camera angle you had on these.


    I'll have to get me some of those remote triggers.


    I was using an off shoe camera cord and it kept pulling my flash towards the pan of water[:@]

    Well, I didn't have that problem, but I was shooting out of a stainless steel sink and the reflectiion of of the edge of the sink killed me. I eventually hung a dark colored towel over the edge of the sink and into the water and that helped a great deal.---
