This was taken in broad daylight with my D700, 70-200 vr 2.8 and my SB-800 with no masking in PP.

Comments and suggestions welcome.

Cheers, joe

Excellent.
Could you share some tips on your flash settings:
specifically did you set the zoom on the flash to match your focal length, and how
much under exposed did you set the flash (-1 EV or similar?).
Thanks, and great results.

The bold colors in number one gets my vote. All three are beautiful... wonderful captures.

Joe,

You have wonderful sharp photos with subtle flash exposure that filled the shadows while letting the natural highlights come out. This is the way it’s supposed to be done. I looked at your exif data and could not read the flash setting. I’m suspecting you used the wonderful TTL-BL of the Nikon CLS. If you did this the old way dialing in flash compensation or using manual flash my complements to you as the results are spot on.

The black backgrounds create very dramatic images. Some would prefer to see the background come through. For me this is fine.

Beautiful work, only thing I would suggest is to clone out the catch light in #1 and #3
Just my 2-cents worth

It's a pleasure to see flash so expertly used - a photographer's skill - vs ultra-high ISO - machine skill.

My compliments. Excellent work.
