A big chunk of my Christmas gifts went towards buying a new Metz 15MS-1 Ring Flash and so, of course, I had to experiment with it...
Various different shots of things, mostly macro. Updated with some experiments using multicoloured gels on smoke. Updated again with some water on nail action. Updated again with water on CDs.
Playing around with matches, candles, lasers, and plasma balls.
I got my hands on a green laser pointer and, since it's so nice and bright, I decided to do some light painting. Here's some samples.
More playing around with water drops reflecting and refracting light and objects.
Various shots where the lighting is underneath the subject.
