More Flashy Fun - DL Warning 6 shots

Last night Katie's Uncle and cousin took me to a local playing field, to photograph their new "Flying Saucer" while it was impressive and flew easily 60 meters into the air, by the time I'd setup the tripod and camera... and it had been retreieved twice after "drifting" out of the field twice, and had run out of batteries...

Not wanting to waste the trip we decided to have some fun using the SB-800 of the camera and triggered manually (pressing the buttons). The photos are noisy but I like them and they show some of the fun we had... once I read the manual for the SB-800 I'm sure I can improve my techniques 50 fold.


Please let me know what you think.

The last one is definitely my favourite and unfortunately the last shot I took. My model was sick of running around and wanted to go home!

I definitaly like the last one as well. its an interesting shot, and with your subject falling down, makes it more interesting than just running left to right.

the other one I like is the first one, as you stand out nicely against the handstands that the other person is doing. It does look like you had a bunch of fun though.

Having fun with your new toys Craig :D

Last one is the best, but as already said #1 is pretty good too. Now go back with your new knowledge and do it properly. :wink:

And next time do it without those annoying bright lights in the distance
