Hantu 19 Feb 05 - with strobe this time =)

beivied · 20th February 2005

first time using d180s... thanks to lanxx, let me try out his strobe... i came to realise for myself that the settings of the strobe isnt that important. the placement of the strobe is. hope u guys can give me some comments, especially on strobe placement for the pics...

kthan, you are right, once you have used a strobe, you wouldnt wanna do without it again

had a lot of backscatter on this one, this juvenile phyllidia (ocellata?) was underneath a boulder. how would you place your strobe if you were me?

couldnt get this fella to come out of hiding... so only shot the butt...

overexposed, haish... but this is the best shot that i have got.... advice? siaoon got a much better one

Wow... you are really proving to everyone that we have a Nudi haven right by our doorstep.

The composition of your images has improved over the last couple of times I've seen your photographs. Now is just learning how to manage the strobe.
