Toughest thing in photography

What is the hardest thing in photography????

i think that lighting is the hardest thing to do in photography, mostly because you cant do much with out a lil bit of lighting equipment. With out at least a speed light you really have not much options..... but i have found a really interesting very affordable way to light up a huge space with complete darkness for just about 30 buck.

This photo was taking at 9:30 at night with a 1 million CP spot light..

what you do is set your camera on a tripod set a  long exposure this one was i think 20 sec at f5.6 and all you do in those twenty sec is almost paint the scene with your spotlight, then check the photo on your screen to see if you need more light in one spot less in another ect.

so go out get a spotlight you can find them at Walmart target any store like that.

and please let me know how it works out for you guys post some pics show me what you have done!!

Are you going to make me write ALL the posts?

LOL...oh well.

I know I have something to say. I don't know what yet. I will write about it later. I'm tired, I haven't used my camera today, and I probably won't tomorrow either. Maybe Friday, definitely Saturday. Weeee.

Let's get this blog rolling!

We've already gotten this off to a good start, we have a few bloggers. Just ahh keep inviting people.

Now. Does anyone like strobes? Does anyone know what strobes are?

Strobes are any off-camera lights that are triggered by your camera. As Nikon users, unless we are professional we generally use speedlights. That means we have a few options: The SB-600 or the Sb-800 (also available is the SU-800 commander and the R1 macro kit, which has two R200 speedlights. Don't worry about those). Basically you can light up a model or whatever you're shooting with these speedlights. There's a huge blog about strobes and even a group. So, with Nikon's CLS system you can sync all of these lights to the exact power you need and have them fire simultaneously. It's very handy and it's a whole other realm of photography that most amateurs have not explored. Anyone have thoughts on it?
