Help Please! (dark photos with flash)

Next Wednesday? www.lensrentals.com 901-568-2485. They have a 420 in stock, but I don't really like that one, but it's much better than the onboard flash! They have a 580, but it says it was due back a few days ago. A 2 week rental is $45 for the 580 and probably $15 or $20 for shipping. There's other rental laces, but this is the one I trust the most. Roger is a really nice guy and helped me out a great deal once when I was in a pinch!

Just a thought, but when I go on vacation I NEED all my stuff!

Anyway, I hope you figure something out.. Have fun in Europe, and post some pics when you get back... How long are you going for?

I like the pic.. My wife keeps pushing me to start doing animal portraits! I might. Everyone here in South Texas has a dog!!

Haha, thanks. Yeah, I love taking pictures of my dog... he is the greatest!

I will be gone for 17 days. I am trying to get a site up with all of my Europe pictures, but with a lack of web design skills that is proving to be quite the task. I had a web designer working on my personal site (www.JoeCereghino.com) but I havent heard from him in like 2 months and there has been no progress on the site. :/

In m signature, click the word photography. I just set that up recently, so I only have a few basic shots up. It's free, and it has about 50 different templates. The main reason I se it up is for when I shoot surfers and other water sports. Give them a business card with the website and a password (optional) on it so they can buy photos of themselves. Instead of a monthly fee, the host just takes a 15%? charge.. You can add that into the print price if you want. I haven't used it for anything other than a couple private parties at a club here, but I'm sure it will work very nice when the season roles around.. Click my link, but I'm pretty sure the site Home Page is www.photoreflect.com.

I eventually will have my own website up, I just never can set aside the time to sit down with a page designer! Laziness, I guess. I know it will help with business, but I know nothing about it, so I dread the steps it takes to get there!

Nice, yeah I had checked out your site earlier. Its pretty cool, I like how it just randomly changes pictures.

I wish I knew Flash or something, that would be sweet.

I have Flash, I just have no idea how to use it. That site I have up is more for clients to order prints rather than showcasing my work! You can use it as your gallery though, you don't have to use it for sales. Like I said, there's many different templates. Some have one large photo that changes, others have many.. The nicest part is that it's free!

Free is the best!!!

I noticed in your sig that you have a lot of plugins. I need a good sharpening plug in (noise ninja??) What can you recomend? Here is a photo I took last night that needs a little help:

That shot looks pretty good as-is.. But I would definitely go with Noise Ninja. Just make sure you don't over use it. I love it. I have the plug-in and the stand-alone. I PM'd and emailed you. Email me back when you can..

It's not a large photo, but you should still be able to see the difference..
