Life is Good!


It was my turn to pick this weeks theme and I came up with: "Life is Good!"


And, what could be better than ice cream out with your sweetie?


Shot with a 50mm lens at 1/30th, f5.6, iso 200 on a tripod. A single 430EX overhead aimed with a diy grid spot provided the light.

  1. I 1/30 of a sec, and the ambient light in the background, it must have been well lit back there? w/o seeing if in real life, I would have guessed more like 1/15 or even as slow as 1/4?

    what do the other customers do when you start whipping out your gear to set up?
    Was the flash directly overhead just higher then your heads?

  3. Hey Lance,

    It's a pretty bright place actually. Nobody seemed to care what I was up to. I did bring a stand for the flash and a tripod to hold up the camera outside the window. The flash was about 4' over our heads.

  4. Camera outside the window? Did you get a remote or did you use the self-timer?
