Tonight we got to experiment with our new strobes. Lighting with more than one or two hot lights is new to me. I think I'll read up on lighting. I do think it came out pretty good for a first go.

Canon EOS 10D ,Canon EF 24-70mm f/2.8L USM
1/200s f/8.0 at 43.0mm iso200 with Flash full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

WOW I have been looking at your pictures for over a year, and I have just found this one. How does bill keep his composure when he is taking these? The eyes are just so stunning such a wonderful color of blue

She is beautiful without any doubt...

This one is truly erotic and fascinating. The collar somehow suits you so well... I'd love to see more shots of you in fetish apparel.. you would do any outfit justice. Truly you are a beautiful lady who is obviousy very somfortable with herself. Thank you for sharing. *warm smiles*

I have to laugh when I look back on this image. This was the first picture we took after Bill bought his "lights". I was under the impression that with the purchase of these lights it would be "easier" to take the shot. Easier in My mind meant "Quicker". I have to confess that I was NOT in a good mood that evening and therefore I was not being very patient! I expected Bill (quick learner that he is) to just set up the lights and take the shot and be done with it! NOT SO! (laffin in retrospect) How was I to know there was a lot to learn about using his new lights? After all, I just sit in front of the camera, I don't know nothing about being behind the damned thing!

Poor Bill, he couldn't get a smile out of Me that night to save him! I was cranky and having a "bad hair day". Most women can relate to what I am about to say next, , , , You can't project pretty if you don't FEEL pretty! Having a bad hair day really sucks! So to remedy the situation I took a break, tossed My hair up on top of My head and clipped it into place. For some reason having an unruly mess of an "up-do" didn't look as bad as having My hair down around My shoulders that night. Amazing the difference hair can make! Anyway, I managed to smile for Bill after that and our first attempt with the new lights turned out "OK"

Wes, I got two Canon 550EX speedlights and ST-E2 speedlight transmitter too go with the 420Ex speedlight I already have. I picked up 3 Bogen 7' stacker stands with swivel umbrella mounts. Picked up two 60" Westcott white satin with removable black covers and one 45" white, silver and black umbrellas.

This was shot with one umbrella with the cover as a reflector used as the key light and the other umbrella flashed through without the cover as a make shift soft-box using the two 550EX speedlights. This is a nice compact and light weight portable setup and the E-TTL metering works.

Very nice lighting. What strobes did you buy?
Wesley Aston19-Jun-2004 05:30
well what lights did you get is the question, it came out great
Robin Reid19-Jun-2004 05:03
Yup,I think you got the lighting down quite well.

Wow, you wear that submittion collar with such class and beauty that at first glance, it looks a regular necklace!! The hair style is especially stunning. Very nice indeed!
