After a short week back home, I visited Charlotte today to present another in my series of lighting workshops. Tomorrow I’ll be in Atlanta for the final workshop in the Spring series. The workshops will return in September with a new format.
This photo is of Leslie, one of our models, and was taken during our evening practical session in downtown Charlotte. Using TTL flash bounced into a reflector, we balanced the flash with the evening sky and the lights of the city behind her.
Thank you to our two models, and to everyone who attended the workshop.

Thank you for such fun hands-on sessions; they made the difference (rather than the typical lectures). Learned a lot and I’m putting it into practice. I figure I can only get better.. :)

Neil:
What do you mean by “balancing the flash with the evening sky”? Should I know this from a previous post? What is the procedure?
Thank you!

Hi Neil:
Thank you very much for sparing the time to hold your workshop in Charlotte last Monday.
I thoroughly enjoyed it, everything fell into place and made sense to me at the end of the class.
It’s always an effort to try something new THAT WORKS, and try to let go of “old habits”. I really got the hang of the night lessons, with the 2 models and street lights.
You have helped to make me look at lighting conditions differently.
