New Ring Flash



I broke down and bought a ring flash. I'm not sure what possessed me to do it, but I did.

I had fun playing around with it. It's a bit heavy. I complain about a heavy lens, imagine adding a whole light to the weight of your camera! I'll probably overuse it for a while. It is fun.

My self portrait was taken with extension tubes and a ring flash. All my new toys.

The portrait of Jen is a more typical ring flash portrait. I overexposed a bit, but I like that look better than the correctly exposed shots. I like to blow out skin. Maybe because it's easier than processing out all the flaws! I don't really know, I just seem to like that look.
