Geoff, Craig & I were experimenting with the SB-800 during the micro-meet and I must've been lucky to capture Craig being hit with the flash...

#1 is superb - great tight framing and aided and abetted by a willing model. #2 is not as good + I don't like the softness of it. #3 is trully weird, but I like it.

Geoff, Craig & I were playing with commander mode with the SB-800 to see what we could get going between the SB-800 and all of our on-board flashes, and I snapped some pictures randomly as we were doing it, and upon post-processing today I noticed that I'd some how grabbed one where Craig had actually been hit by the flash during the shot.

I'm with what Peter said, almost word for word :)

We did have fun and it's truely excellent that whenever we catch up with Craig he is a very willing model for us to experiment on!!

I really like #1 Leigh seems well balanced, exposed, (Katie likes it because you can't tell its "That green Jumper" that I'm wearing).

#2 seems a little soft and my teeth have never been as white (who needs a dentist).

#3 Lucky capture I can even remember being bammed by the flash finally when we sorted out the flash modes.

Some nice shots there Leigh. Just be careful though... keep this up and Craig won't be getting out of bed for less than $200,000 a day!

Exactly my thoughts. Craig seems to be succesfully profiling himself as a model lately... 8)

Cheers

First shot is a truly superb portrait Leigh.
