Thanks, Ian, Kapula, Ken and Peter. Always appreciate the kind comments.
Peter, we try to get around most weekends, but Carmel is more exposed than the Bay and sometimes it's just too bumpy there and back and makes the trip out a bit long. Once summer hits, sometimes the fog can get nasty as well.
Ian, they were all taken at f5.6@1/60, with external flash only (YS-110 in Heinrichs ttl, and Sunpak slave with an optical cable) ISO100, 8mm focal distance. The EXIF for all my shots is available on my photobucket album, which you can access by clicking below. Sub-albums are by date and location. You have to click on the individual picture to get to the EXIF.
Ken, I'm starting to get the hang of the new strobe and figured out a consistent optical link to the Sunpak. I had the diffusers on both of them yesterday and it worked pretty well, so hopefully I'll be getting more and more pictures with proper lighting. Still working on strobe angle and distance to get rid of the glare spots, which I often have to reduce in PS.
