Today I want to share some test shots of flash modifiers LumiQuest 80-20 and LumiQuest Mini Soft Box that I won in a contest. Also I tested two types of Bounce Cards: the regular and feather light (inspired by Peter Gregg www.abetterbouncecard.com). So lets begin.
Equipment:
Flash SB-600
Lens Nikon 50mm 1.8
Camera Nikon D80

Today I want to share thees portrait lighting diagrams with you folks ! I think they will come in handy for someone. I made those from a book that is called “The book of light”, I didn’t found any diagrams in this book that’s why I made them from the description under every photo. Have fun !

Last week I attended a seminar about “One Light Photography”. It was a 6 hour long lecture and practice. The professional photographer showed us how to make cool high-class photos using only 1 light and the available lighting. It really inspired me and today I decided to try some techniques I learned on the seminar, so let’s see the results.
Not long ago I bought the SB-600. As a true strobist (inspired by David Hobby and Bert Stephani) I made some light modifiers and started to experiment with my shots. This one is the best I’ve got from the first session. I used SB-600 at 1/4 power and a grid spot.
model: my wife.
gear: Fujifilm S1 Pro, Sigma 18-200, SB-600 + grid.
