Wawa is the birthplace of Flickers Photo Club (FPC). In May 23, 2006, 6 original members had a photoshoot con meeting over lunch at a local "turo-turo" (eatery). My wife and I, at the trail of our 10th wedding anniversary, are back to this place nearly two years after to find the politics of the local government unit stupendously ridiculous. Nevertheless, we had a great day shooting with fellow FPC photographers, "new" breeds of photogs, so to speak, doing Remote Lighting System (RLS).
Once you're into RLS, it is hard to go back shooting models in available or direct flat light from one onboard flash. And it becomes a habit to shoot with creative lighting even when you are not shooting models. I find my macro shooting in Pagudpud using two lights or one in remote. Even with one light, you can get a boom and you can shoot in butterfly setup and still get a dramatic images. If there's one single advise we can give to photographers who want to nurture creativity, it's "Get that light off your camera!"
This week's picks showcases the RLS shooting of Eric with one light source in Wawa, and Sidney with multiple lights in UP Diliman (a great way to start the month of March, by the way). Edwin pitches in his F/32 shot of lilies in the pond of La Mesa Ecopark, with big droplets of water, in available light and slow shutter (1/4) and ISO 200.
This is NOT IN ANY WAY A PHOTO CONTEST. We just want to honor Photographic creativity :D
