Capturing Everyday Life...: Mean Momma

Mean Momma

Sorry I haven't posted in a while. It's been CRAZY around here. But that seems to be normal for us so why can't I get used to it? So I am trying to learn something new (as usual). I feel like the Jack of all Trades, Master of None. I learn a lot of things but applying them and mastering them is a WHOLE other story! I was practicing to use my flash without showing that I used my flash. How'd I do? My poor little guinea pig... he was okay with me taking his pic because I promised him some computer time and here he was letting me know I was pushing it! LOL So yeah, I'm posting this while he and Wow Wow Wubzy attack underwater sea creatures...

Thanks for visiting! Settings are: SS 1/40, F/2.5, ISO 400, taken in Manual Mode with my 50 mm f/1.8 lens and my 430EX Speedlite tilted over my left shoulder up onto the wall and partially the ceiling. I took a pic without the flash to show how dark it was with these settings but it was just black and no fun to look at on a blog! LOL

Mom2Drew said...: You got catchlights! That's a big deal when using the flash. There are no obvious signs of flash, so I would say you did a pretty good job. Keep up the practicing, i think flash gets a really bad rap when it's a very useful tool when you learn it correctly (not that I have, mind you;); May 29, 2007 at 7:51 AM
