#3 & #8 for me, Herb. Pretty hard getting good exposures on the males in that light, eh?

Tony

Hey Tony, thanks for the comments and picks. The males are like super hard to expose. I have been trying the flash/ BB in hi sync for them but at slower burst rates and recycle time issues with the battery booster, not too much success. I tend to hope they just turn towards the light more.
