Four-Fer tonight. Got my PaD, our 52 of Us, FGR & Umbrella shot tonight. Technically I could lump in a Strobist shot as well, but I'm not going to push it. I am actually firing two flashes in this. One is my 580 EX2 at 1/2 power fired directly into the silver lined umbrella. I realized after an initial set that I needed to bring in my Vivitar 285 into the mix set up behind the camera and bounced off the ceiling to bring in a little detail of the umbrella top. I have the Vivitar set at 1/2 power. It probably could have been used a little more selectively with perhaps the Oat Snoot and lower power to get the umbrella top. This was the second to last shot of the second set. After the next shot, my wife told me that this was enough. She wanted to read her book. I am supposed to do family shots tomorrow, I'd expect a little more compliance this evening to help me make sure the gear is working.
