Flash Photography

Preston · Apr 30, 2008

I think I'm getting the hang of it with my SLR camera. Today was the first time I took pictures of my corals with the flash on. I have to admit the picture looks a lot colorful and sharper.

Thanks.

No I'm not suing a tripod. It might even be sharper with a tripod huh?

Oh yes way more crisp with a tripod!

Those anthias are stunning! How many do you have?

Preston · May 1, 2008

They are called Edward Anthias. I bought 6 of them but 1 died.

I forgot to ask. What kinda flash are you using?

Preston · May 1, 2008

I have a Canon Rebel LT and use a Speedlite 430EX for flash.

Very nice shots.

Nice and crisp, clear, and sharp. Are you bouncing the flash off of a ceiling or are these taken with the flash head on but just dialed down?

I use a Speedlite 430EX flash and just point it at the coral.
