This is my first use of the Light Sphere. Very happy with the results.
This was taken while my Father and I visited my Mother. She's been in a care facility for nearly a year after Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm surgery. It's been a tuff road for her. Many complications including one ugly night when she coded after going into septic shock from massive infections.
She's been through so much in her life. Two major back surgeries, knee surgery, two bouts of breast cancer resulting in two mastectomies, heart bypass, the aneurysm and if that wasn't enough she fell and broke her hip last summer while in the care facility. New hip from that fall.
She is the strongest person I know. Period. |

| That looks very impressive. I've been eyeing off the LIghtsphere II. What flash did you use for this shot and was the flash pointed directly at the subjects? |

Art Roflmao: Thanks!
Makka: I used a Canon 430EX bounced off the ceiling. |

Makka,
Buy one. I've been using mine for 3 months and won't use anything else. Have been shooting group shots of Ice skaters all week, (from 5 to 43 people), for a program and didn't need to use any otheer lighting set-up. I'll post some later this week when I have more time. |

| My Father used the camera to take a few shots prior to this one and I had it set to program for him. I didn't think to make a change and that's what it was set to when I took that shot. ISO was 100. |

Always manual with flash.
ISO depending on situation.
Easier to balance things out. Say, you have an indoor shot and there's a bright snow scene visible through the window. Meter or guess the scene outside and set the aperture/ISO accordingly (somewhere around f/5.6-8 at ISO 100 and 1/200 ss). |
