Have seen this before when someone took a shot of a young girl in the woods under a canopy of leaves, the child was tinted green - so I do think it is the ambient light and not the camera. Why it may not have been noticed is because that was what the eye saw and therefore the result looked correct at least on first viewing to the photographer.

I am a total novice at 'flashing' so have a lot to learn, just ordered MattMatic's e-book so I hope to know more shortly. Will not do anything final until I understand what I am doing which may take most of the winter but it will keep me out of trouble.

Just what I needed at this moment, E-book ordered and keenly awaited. Thanks MattMatic.

Thanks George. Back to the drawing board and unfortunately the bank account. Shame really as it has a fully rotating head and a thing for firing it remotely, still no good wishing I think it will have to go.

I have a Cobra 700AF dedicated autofocus flash unit originally bought for the Z10 and I am wondering if it is safe to use on my K20 & K-7 also will it work in conjunction with the AF 360.

Please forgive if I am talking nonsense I am new to flash but want to spend the darker months coming to terms with them.

Love the shots but they all have a green cast, was it the light or perhaps the reflection of the leaves?

Yes, I prefer the longer ones too and use a Sigma 105mm, gives you so much more scope and makes the DOF easier to deal with.

Not wishing to become a bore I have purchased on at least a dozen occasion, via the net, and have always received the goods in good order next day.

Mind you I can understand a one off shop sometimes being out of stock of items that do not move very quickly, distributors willing they will get it for you asap, I had noted that SRS do not carry a large amount of filters anyway I was disappointed to find that they do not do Lee but then at the moment nor does anyone else, it seems they are unavailable from the manufactures does anyone know why?

Edit:
Oops! manners, welcome to the forum Ray.

Don't know much about these sites but it would seem you have a cropping problem, not good on most the shots and a disaster on the one of the two girls. The images look interesting and I find it irritating that you are unable to view the whole of the image in in a clean background.

Sorry for the delay, only just come on line.

Have been playing and would like your opinion as I think I may have got carried away with my own amazement. CC requested and hoped for.

1/ is the original straight from the K-7

2/ is my effort at a mono, not really into mono and still floundering a bit – blue seemed to work best.

3/ told you I got carried away this can only be called ‘altered’ I liked it at first but now I am not too sure
