Practicing my macro shots

[Squiggle]

Thanks dude, got a long way to go yet but the black is starting to get some deep consistancy. :encouragement:

Very cool squiggs, the colours on those CBS are great.

Lovely CBS

[Heavyd]

Beautiful CBS mate. Can really see the difference in photo quality with the new flash.

Which flash unit did you end up getting?

[Squiggle]

Thanks guys, a couple of the CBS I have are start to get coloured legs. :victorious:

@Heavyd - it's only a cheap one, Yongnuo Speedlite YN560 III, it's got 2.4ghz wireless trigger so getting the flash from the top is easy. This one was recommended to me by a professional photographer, he told me I didn't need to spend ridonkulous money on a very good flash. :encouragement:

[Heavyd]

I have two of the Yongnuo flash units. I think mine are the 565 EX models. I'm very happy with them and they are perfect for a noob like me. I only know how to use them in manual mode lol

[Squiggle]

Hahaha, yeah mine has a few features that I'm not sure about yet but I will be practicing with it to see the differences. They are a great flash for us noobs & very reasonably priced, just goes to show you don't need a big dollar flash to get great results when you're just starting out. :victorious:

Great shots there Squiggs your shrimp are looking great. :encouragement:

[Squiggle]

Thanks Ineke, the colours & patterns are starting to move quite well in the direction I want them to go, still got a long long way to go before I'm happy with them though. :encouragement:
