I had asked you guys about some flash recommendations earlier, and finally have gotten into the swing of things with my speedlights!
This is (imo) my most successful attempts yet at off-camera lighting, and I was wondering if I could get some critiques from you guys.
These shots were taken in a DIY macro studio box thing, with a 430EXII fired through the opaque paper wall on the left, and a nikon SB28 fired from the top, pointing towards the backs of the beer.
PP: RAW taken with Canon 50D and a 17-55f/2.8IS, adjusted in Aperture 2, with some curves, levels, Topaz Adjust, and sharpening done in PSCS4.
with the first two, I added a lens flare in PS to try to help cover up some blow-outs, and I think it actually contributed to the image rather than degrading it.
C&C for my foray into flash?
