Amazing shot! I have a friend who's due to drop any time now, hoping she lets me get some newborn shots

dual bare speedlites (580EX + 430EZ) to overpower the sun for this one

Some ocf during a a couple from the reception at my last wedding.

Used a 580 off camera to light the table and a 580 on camera to light the couple.

^^^ second one is very nice

How big was your umbrella? Would be interested to know what the ambient was like before the flash as well.

my umbrella is 42" and it was at like 8:30 at night so it was pretty dark over here at that time.

#1 One gelled (red) variable LED panel in book. One YN 560 set to 50% shot through an umbrella just to camera right.

going to have to fiddle more with processing when using the ND, does funny things to the pic..

Loving these shots Rob! Was the second using dual bare speedlights as well?

I took the ND filter out for a spin yesterday and was pretty pleased with the results, but found that my 28-75 2.8 was miss focusing with it on, i've now found that the focus is off generally with the lens so am going to have to send it away to get calibrated...

OOOh yeah!!! Very nice shot, love the colors on this one...You overopowered the sun very well!

thanks guys, still learning, but having fun

PJ, that was a single bare 580EX on 1/2 power

Thanks Rob! I'm surprised it was only 1/2 power! Btw, didn't spot the tiny bit of flare (bottom right hand corner) when I first viewed it on my phone - really nice touch!

yeah, i was expecting to have to double flash, but it would seem using the ND means that i can shoot with less power than without
