Off Camera Flash…Huh????
Several years ago when I started in photography I was primarily concerned with lighting some LARGE and DARK areas in underground mines, such as these images here. I absolutely love using these small flash units with some fancy radio triggers, their portability and ease of use really suit my style of shooting. I have started [...]
