ring flash ???



=p

i stil need some modification....but generally..the making process shd b similar to the 'alien gun' too...the diff is..u need to calculate more precisely here bcoz u had to put the flash infront of ur lens(in the 'hole' at the center)..so the distance is impt....

heres some examples for portrait taken with ring flash taken from flickr






the pic of diy ring flash attach on camera

wah..ASAP is into fashion photography?? =D

i saw some review on the 'real' ring flash vs some diy-ed one...to be frank not much diff...other than the 'real' ring flash could deliver the flash to much further distance...




okay..talk so much about ring flash..i've decided tonite i gonna come out with some portrait shots...not sure whether it'd sucess tho..lol..just a rough idea in my head now

lol...moo y r u so excited about the new models..changing ah? =p

tittle for tonite = Portrait *perhaps self-portrait?* =p

ryzan bro..u crop ur photo or u really able to get so close with the flies..?...u stick them to the floor issit..haha..=p

hokc77...i always like those sports photos which freeze the beautiful moment...nice shots there.. <3 it


setting up my stuff now..waiting my 'model' to dress up and hopefully im able to get wad i promise to deliver...lol...*else she gonna screw me for wasting her time n cosmetics*

taken last nite...c&c r welcomed~

err...F58 at the back of her head..setting = 24mm n 1/32

at the front of her..i put a reflective board (made it with alu foil =.= ) hopefully it could bounce off any available light to her face..its very dark in the room..and if i on anymore lights..the whole room would b lit-ed up...

camera setting(manual) iso200 , F2 , Shutter 1/200s...

haha..ya...was using cz1680 but realized my living room is way toooo dark for the aperture....so i change to 50mm for a more flexible way of playing around with the setting..


btw the light part...it was purposely done in a warmer tone as the model prefer to have warmer photo..lol

for the first pic..the sky doesnt look very 'smooth' to me...u did some pp on the sky?

maybe u can put some 'blur' to the sky to smoothen the 'lines' btwn diff colors.. =)
