This might be a dumb question, but I risk it.

I know the pentax 540 flash is wireless - but what does that mean?? Can I fire the 540 off the camera wireless without any extra bits - or do I need something to fire it?

I have read the manual and tried to set the flash as master/wireless - same channel and all.

As far as I can see I can only fire the 540 if I use my pop up as well or another flash on the camera.

I want to fire the 540 off the camera without any other flash involved.....

Do I need some triggers? If yes - where can I find some cheap ones - that works? (or cables if that is the cheapest option)

Any help appriciated greatly.

Great portrait the last one. Good conversion and light.

I like the 3rd one the best of the others.

Looks fishy

Lovely style!

Thanks a lot for the comments. The second one is my dad (grandad) with my youngest (Emilie).

He is very happy for the shot. I have a good serie of shots of them from that night.

...and a colour one:

2 pics from my recent holiday. Had to try some BW. C + C more than welcome. Both shot with DA* 50-135 iso 400.

Here is mine. I want to have this in this round as I did this just for the competition......damn site!!

Hope you will judge all shots this round regardless where they are.

What is the goal? You want it to look fake?

Use the sliders for white and black point. Move them to the right - and it will change dramatically.

Also - use a higher lightsmoothing to avoid the halo you have here.

For a fake look - use a high saturation and strong contrast setting.

Very nice indeed. Good use of the HDR proces here.

Well done - lovely ships.

Lightning is great. I might loved a higher apperture on some (2 and 4) of them to make bigger OOF areas.
