Playing with some new photo gear - NEW 'tutorials'

What's the flash gun thing?? Is it attached to the camera?? I'm so lost on this thread, lol!

I love the pictures, they do look like studio prints.

At this point don't worry too much about flash guns. LOL Just using a piece of cardboard with wrinkly alumminum foil (dull side out), or a piece of computer paper will get you about what I shot today.

Suffice to say a 'flash gun' or off camera flash or studio strobe will make better pix for lighting, but can get a bit more complicated and you would need to have a good grasp on photography basics first.

I can cover more on 'flash guns' later if people want, but I tend to gear my 'lessons' (yes I do this at home and online alot for people that ask) more towards people who love photography, but only have simple cameras, or aren't very advanced photographers.
