I recently got hold of some pocket wizards and an extra flash from ebay, and I have been experimenting with multiple off camera lights. How does this look? (if you can ignore the horrible hot spot at the bottom of the flower!)

Thanks,

Andrew

    Looks good Andrew :D

    You already pointed out the hot spot on the flower, there's a small one inside the vase too, but it really does look nice :D .... Skippy

    The settings were as follows:

    5D, 100/2.8 macro
    f/13 1/160 ISO 400
    Direct flash from behind, and a second into an umbrella off to the right - I don't recall the output levels though.
