Last week Tony invited me to a photography outing in Taman Metropolitan Kepong. I didn’t know where the hell that was, but apparently it’s a favorite spot for kite-flying and family picnics. Luckily I managed to get there without getting lost on the way… enough time to get the afternoon sun. When I arrived, the others (Tony & wife, Kichi, Tini, Nabil, Nadia) were already there shooting.
I brought my light stand and SB-600 to sit among the other 4-5 speedlights. However, we didn’t use all of them. Only about 3 …

So now I have been bitten by the Strobist bug. Last weekend, me & the girls went to Bagan Lalang beach with a few friends for some fun off-camera lighting shoot. It was a good experience for me, as prior to this, I only had a 3rd party slave flash to play with. I’ve got another old Vivitar 283 flash and I think I’m gonna find some ways to trigger that thing. Maybe a cheapo Cactus radio trigger would do.
These are the results from my early attempts…
