Well Happy New Year to all of you! A few from today (using the FD 400mm f4.5 M.F.) with a \"ginned-up\" combination of a fresnel lens from an old junk overhead projector in front of a 35 year-old Sunpak 611 mallet-style flash unit, running manual power settings. I triggered it with a 270EX Mk1, using a Wein photo-slave wired to the 611. I figured that I would get enough carry of light into the hemlocks, with the sun strongly back-lighting the subjects. It worked pretty well, so I probably will fabricate an aluminum pan/swivel frame to take it out of the crude-crap stage. The last two photos were taken from the Blizzard of 2011 (Jan 12th), when we got hit with over 2-1/2 feet of snow in about 12 hours. Still haven\'t seen any here since the October surprise storm...
Regards,
Edd
