Hey Pops!
After hearing David Hobby say at yesterday's seminar that he hardly ever uses flash without gels nowadays, I decided it was finally a time for me to try color gels on my flashes. For this shot I used magenta gel on the SB-600 used to lit the background wall (natural color is white), shot at 1/16 power, and CTO warming gel was used on Sunpak 383 shot at 1/4 power through white umbrella on camera's left. One more catchlight you may see in their eyes is a silver reflector to camera's left to fill in the shadows.
Maks is never too excited to be in front of the camera, but I learned that if I jump like an idiot and make the sounds of a gorilla right before releasing the button, he manages to crack a smile. I sure appreciate the AF function on a camera.
