This conductor shot was a combination of available stage light (low ambient tungsten light) and an ALZO auto porta-flash placed directly behind the subject. The ALZO Porta flash light, fired with the ALZO Wireless flash trigger kit, creates a strong backlight which separates the subject from the background and adds a dramatic effect.

Setup: No softbox was used for this shot, just the flash at full power, about 8 feet directly behind the subject .

Camera settings: f-stop 2.8, AV mode, shutter 1/160 sec, no on-camera flash, ISO 1000.

 

 

 

 
Setup: ALZO Porta-Flash ultralight softbox 2 light kit with lights positioned to the left and the right of the group at 45 degrees. The softboxes were aimed at the center of the group. The ambient lighting was very low.

Camera settings: Canon 580 EX II in TTL mode, on tripod. Aperture F-9, shutter speed 1/100 sec, no on-camera flash, ISO 640, .

Setup: Three flash lights, all of them bare. A 430 EX II flash light, stand-mounted, on the right, and an Auto Porta Flash on the left; another one behind the subject. 430 EX II was set to ETTL, triggered by a 580EX II on camera, master turned off, set to trigger only. The Auto Porta Flash on the left was set to half power, triggered by a radio trigger on camera thru pc sync.

Camera settings: ISO 3200

 

This outdoors shot combines evening light with light from a flash. These soft lighting conditions occurred at around 7:30 p.m. in Indiana in mid-September just before sunset. A single side/back light flash was used to create the hair highlight on the right side of the subject. The sunset was to the left of subject.

Setup: The ALZO ultralight softbox kit was aimed at the right side of the subject's head with a red gel taped to the flash. The remote flash was triggered with the ALZO wireless flash trigger kit.

Camera settings: Aperture 5.6, shutter speed was 1/160 sec on a mono pod, ISO= 500. Canon 580 ex II flash was set to manual @ 1/64 power, no on-camera flash.
