I used the FL-360 and remote trigger to capture the daisies being blown around in the wind then used a 60second shutter to cature the wind effect.
Increased contrast etc in LR
Off on holiday (again) tomorrow so back in a week.. I'm just trying to choose which lenses to take with our luggage weight restrictions! :S :)

More wedding shots as sitting in hotel without PC
I was pleased wit the FL-360 here. Perfect lighting for me and not setup - just a watchful eye! .. i'm sure the background looked all black on the monitor at home so it may need calibrating! :S

I was in need of some new shots so decided to setoff when I got home in my car in search of a sunset. By sheer luck my new Lumix FL360 flash unt had arrived in the post so I though ti'd take that too. It turned out that the sunset came to nothing BUT I did get to play with my new toy. Typical me, manual still in wrapper but kept shooting until got one I liked! I love the whistle as it charges!! It soudns very pro :D (Big kid I know!) This is the first shot, cropped but not real adjustments to the rape seed flower in terms of brightness. Flash did a great job for first attempts. Just got back.. not even had dinner yet. Lol
