Another Toshio shot

[Jim Bryant]

After shooting back to back high school football games in the rain I woke up this morning feeling like, well you can imagine. So, instead of going to the Cardinals vs. Seahawks game I decided to stay home and watch them pick apart the Seahawks. Ever so often, I break out my camera and flash manuals and just brush up on the technical wordy crap. Toshio was at my feet, so I decided to set up my four flash units (each on different on output power) and shoot some pictures of the puppy. For once when I turned the camera in his direction, he didn't get up and come over to investigate. I guess he was too busy chewing on what's left of his pigs' ear to take notice. I was able to take about five photos before he started to show an interest in the flash units. I had the units assigned output powers from - 1 and 1/2 to -2 and 2/3 flash output. Here's my best two images. Enjoy!

Great shots...I have a hard time getting my 2 pups to sit still. I have taken plenty of pictures of them, but getting a good one is another story. Nice job.

you gotta give them something to gnaw on

Great shot Jim! As soon as I get the camera out, Chewy gets up and comes over to see what I'm going, It's hard to get a candid of him. He's a ham.
Thanks for sharing these

That sounds familar. Still a pretty cool looking dog. I know you've said before, but what kind of dog is it again?

Nice shots, Jim. Nice use of the lights! Good point about the pig's ear...like kids, you must creat a diversion to get the shot you want!! Thanks for sharing. Jim

Kids........If they don't behave I just tell them I'm gonna break off their arms and beat them over their heads with the bloody stumps Well....that's what I told mine.

Yeah I tried that once...took a long time to clean up the mess!!!

Thanks for the advice, Jim. Can you send me a link to some shots on your site where you used the 300 and 1.4 converter? Thanks.
