Let me know if y'all are getting bored with these! Here are a few from my late afternoon walk around in my yard. I guess it's what you call "available subject" shooting. I used the twin flashes, the right hand flash was about twice the distance away as the left. I think the ratios look pretty good. I still have had time to figure out how to set the ratios with the flashes. Thanks for looking.

I call this the "lonely journey back home"

Spider underbelly, strangely only 6 legs. Maybe it's not really a spider.

A long tailed Skipper I think

A little PS watercolor filter added to taste.

One more filter attempt.

    J: I love the ant!

    H: Given manual mode on the flashes, and the same power setting, doubling the distance (from the flash to the subject) will reduce exposure by two stops.

    J: It produces a pretty nice ratio.

    H: Bored? Yeah right.
