THE RETURN OF THE GARY FONG!

Taking some pics at a family wedding last week I was able to break out my trusty Gary Fong flash diffuser. Check out these two pics taken a fraction of a second apart. http://www.pbase.com/bret/image/99721017 http://www.pbase.com/bret/image/99721018 In the first pic another person's flash fired at the exact moment as my shutter tripped, causing a severely overexposed shot which I was able to rescue thanks to shooting in RAW mode. Some of the highlights are still blown, reminding one of what they'd get had they hired a low-budget photographer from Queensland. The second pic was illuminated by my 580EX bounced with my Gary Fong diffuser. Note the more even lighting and the lack of harsh shadows. Even the pro hired to shoot the wedding told me later that she wished she had a Gary Fong. If you also suffer from Gary Fong envy you can be cured he http://store.garyfonginc.com/liiido.html Unless you had the flash on a 6 feet long pole, the first shot wasn't lit by your flash but by someone standing to the right of you - Not the best way to make out you are some sort of wedding photographer. ROTFL. |
