Testing out the new flash with a Omni-bounce on my wife. Taken with my 24-70L and a 580ex flash. She's getting more willing to let me practice on her.......lol.

Good for you (and her). That flash / lems combo is not the easiest to use as I am finding out. Just got that same combo last weekend.

Love the cath light in the eyes. I also like the pastel. Flash looks great how is it if she with shadows id your subject was close to a wall???

Thanks. I'm still trying to figure out all this lens/flash/-fec/ETTL/depth of field photography mumbojumbo stuff. I would post one of her after a few shots, but I don't want to offend anyone........lol. (she was making a hand jester of how she felt about me practicing).........lol. She's a good sport about all this. I think that she's pretty and would love a million shots of her. (good ones that is). But in all honesty, she hates to have her picture taken. Go Figure.

Looks like the omnibounce worked well for that one. Nice-looking lady!

Your wife has a nice, warm smile and the omni-bounce looks great in this shot. Nice and soft light.

I was thinking about buying one of these, thanks for the post. I made a softbox that mounts on my 550EX, but for $20.00 I should buy the omni-bounce!

pretty wife

Thanks everyone for the most kind comments. I can't remember what the FEC was. But I'm almost certain I had it at -1 1/2, I'm thinking. Since I was so close and had the f stop pretty open. Plus I had just gotten the omni-bounce and was messing around seeing what it would do. It's pretty cool to bounce it off the ceiling......really lights up the room alot. I still need lots of practice with it. But I think that it really softens the light a lot. I'm happy with it.

Nice photo, but the hunched left shoulder says she's still uncomfortable. ;)
