Turning Day Into Night

<p>Just practicing by using off camera flash to turn daylight into dark. These 2 photo's were taken in broad daylight using an SB900 off camera and by setting the aperture very small (f22). Kind of a neat effect that I've seen others use and thought I'd take a stab at!</p>

<p>Thanks for posting. Just received an SB-26 and was messin' with lighting last eve too. Made mental note :) Cheers.</p>

<p>Cool, Steve. Now, for that real nocturnal feel, throw a blue(ish) gel on the strobe. Or not. But definitely play with hues, as well as with relative brightness and light direction. Have fun!</p>

<p>Great idea I will try that for sure! I also want to get a second flash (maybe an SB600 to accent). Thanks for the ideas!</p>

<p>Heres a shot in full daylight, just overpowered and warmed with a beauty dish to give it the feel of being on a fire escape illuminated by a fire. Rachel from America's Next Top Model. </p><div></div>
