Winter Wonderland

On Saturday, I got an SB-900 flash.  Even though I’ve used them before, I wanted to familiarize myself with my new baby.  Yesterday, I went out to Hidden Pond Nature Center in Springfield, VA and tried her out.  I discovered that I need to become more familiar with the beep language of Nikon Speedlights, since it was making some interesting beeps that I hadn’t heard before from other units.  Anyways, here are some photos from the trip, along with a bonus fun photo.

When I did use flash outside, it tended to be fill flash.  The lessons of Advanced Techniques live on, although it was strange not shooting people and hunting them down for caption info.

Flash - fill flash, not the burning orb in the sky

 

 

 

 

 

 

Flash to create an artsy photo of picnic tables in magic light

 

One of my neighbors collects little winter cityscapes.  This year, she made a special tribute to the Hudson River plane landing.
