Luke, I'm Your Flasher...

Want a ready-made fall model for your growing lighting skills?

Shoot your kid(s) in their Halloween costume. That's exactly what Strobist reader Resuggan did while playing with one, small flash.

He put it to camera right on 1/8 power manual, stuck a red gel on it and triggered it with a PC cord. The kicker that pulled off the idea was to use a time exposure to track the toy lightsaber as it moved around a bit.

Tres Hollywood, IMO. Click on the pic to see it bigger.
