Silhouette Lesson

Silhouette Lesson

I learned how to do this today from Gavin Hoey on Adorama TV. I showed the video to my wife, and asked if she wanted to do it, and she found a translucent umbrella, and here's our result. Here's the link to that wonderful video

I will explain how I did it, but Gavin does a much better job of it on his video. I've been watching Gavin on YouTube long before he went to work for Adorama. I've always referred to the videos there as the University of YouTube.

Lit with one bare SB600 pointed at a white background which was about three feet behind the subject. Strobe was in manual mode and triggered by the pop up flash on my D90 in commander mode.
