Just a thought....you are not turning the LED beam on are you ?

The trailing curtain option is only a P-TTL mode so not available when the flash is set to Manual output.

What exposure mode are you using on the camera itself ..... Manual ? If so what shutter speed are you selecting.

Also what lens ?

I dont use trailing shutter sync often, but seem to remember it is a P-TTL only mode on the Pentax flashes. I would need to find the manual to check.

As far as two flashes, I think you are mistaking the pre-flash for the first one. It wont contribute to your exposure as it takes place while the mirror is down.

we too seem to be suffering from a lack of blackbirds this year
Here in Woking we have seen declining numbers for years. This last summer there was one friendly bird that would always appear in the afternoon as I was watering. I kept a little pot of mealworms just for him. I had to keep Ripley indoors while he fed on them.

Thanks Peter - yes those steps often pose for me, sometime with a good result - more often than not with disappointing results
You should try dogs .. I reckon it is a 50/1 ratio at least.

Well worth the play time. The sunlit window in no. 2 is a particularly good - literally eye-catching, it's hard to look away from it!

I like the bent tree. The sea gales have cowered it, but it wont give up.

I like the first one best. Really stands out against the sky

I like this. The white seeds give an unusual backdrop which compliments Mrs Blackbird.

Our palm tree seeds are yellow/orange, not seen white before.
