Noobish Question About Killing Ambient Light.

Is there a way to shoot outside, when the sun is at it's highest and kill the ambient light and just use the flash? I so know that this has to probably be one of the most dumbest questions, but I just had to ask. I figured if I didn't ask then I would never know. I was just curious if this was possible. Thank you for your time.

Was your flash developed under the code name Manhattan Project?

Get a really powerful strobe, a hotshoe flash wont do it.

f/22, 1/2000th and flash set to high speed sync? Just guessing

You want it to look like night time outside but during daylight... Is that right? In a recent forum, Nick Jushchyshyn provided a good example of that sort of thing.

Here's a link and you will want to look at all three pages but the proof is on page 2.

Jemurphy99, Thank you so much for the link. That explains everything to me. Thanks again!

Happy to help. Mr. Jushchyshyn did all the heavy lifting though!
