Playing with the SB-600 Flash

It's been awhile since I've shot with my camera, but I couldn't resist playing around with my new toys. I bought a Strobist setup from some random guy going to a camera show, and I picked up the SB-600 flash from Craigslist. Even though it's only a single kit, there are endless possibilities. Could this be the beginning of an end to natural lighting for me??? I highly doubt it, but at least this setup adds to the repertoire.

Here are a couple pics of my Mom with Freddie sitting outside in the yard about an hour before sunset.

Got a lot to figure out, but at least it's a start. I never even imagine wanting a Strobist kit, let alone an off-body flash.

Raised Flower Bed

So what are you suppose to do with 30 year old wooden shelves made out of 2x4's and particle board???? Make a raised flower bed, of course. I ended up converting the garage shelves my Dad made when he first bought the house into a flower bed. Now that's sustainable living.



Now we can plant our fresh herbs and make Tum Yum soup everyday :)
