Trying to repair an old Quantaray flash, I decided the circuit board made for a better photograph than piece of my lighting kit. I made this by holding my working Vivitar flash behind the circuit board, setting it to full power, and taking a normal exposure.

More and more electronics. So many tiny things to photograph.

Comment troubles and Strobist

For some reason, Blogger isn't letting me comment on my own posts. Curious. But I do appreciate the ones I've gotten so far.

And for some actual photo content, check out the latest post on Strobist, about a photo shoot done in the Large Hadron Collider. Strobist has done more than practically any other resource to improve my photography in the past year, and every post is required reading, but this one involved Physics, so go read!
