Umbrellas are cheap, it's the flash equipment that can get a little pricey.That is fantastic. It looks so natural and cool. So you use one of those special umbrella thingies? I wonder how expensive those are...
Where can I get one?!!! I must have it!! That is so cute!Tired? Take a seat please and feel at home.
I love the way the redfoot is looking up.I shared this one in my red foot thread the other day, but I'll share it here too. I was trying to shoot a photo of my red foot for her update thread but my assistant tortoise keeper insisted on climbing into the photo with her.
The problem with flash is it is often WAY too harsh and WAY too directional, and for portraiture bare flashes are rarely the best way to light a subject.
Umbrellas, soft boxes, and similar items are diffusers that soften the light and in effect soften those shadows.
(Bounce Umbrellas also exist, and are slightly different than Shoot-Through Umbrellas, but I tend to only go that route when I want to throw light EVERYWHERE.)
When you are ready to take the next leap and start purchasing off camera lighting equipment I will always be more than happy to give advice here where it is at least slightly on topic or private message.
Awww, what's he got there, Mazuri? He looks delighted!Frank enjoying his evening meal.
