Beautiful shots, what!!


Crysta, look for an RPS studio mini softbox. It's suppose to slide right over your flash and you can direct your light at your subject very easily

Whew! I'm way out of my league in this thread, I can see! I used to produce some pretty nice stuff with my 35 mm, but of course I can't post those and even if I could it wouldn't match the quality of these photos.

But, here is one point and shoot picture I was sort of pleased with that I posted in Not So Spineless wonders a while back....

Wow guys great pictures ! this thread seems more popular!

Im still doing macro photography with moving insects so sorry for the quality/blurryness due to lowish shutter speed. I will make a flash..... next week! lol but i thought I would get used to working with suck low depth of field...
5mm

Watch out for a high ISO, as well. You want to shoot with a low as possible ISO (preferably 100-200). The high iso makes it grainy, but once you're using a flash, you cant bring the iso down as low as possible.

Nice shots everyone!

What do you guys stop down to when you're shooting the tiny stuff(1/2" or less)?

Almost forgot: anyone have a DIY option for ring flash or a means to convert an old flash to be used w/o it being mounted on the hot shoe?
