His name is really Bill Turner so I started calling him 'Bootstrap' (Pirates of the Carribean reference) A photographer at work that I talk to regularly and a helluva nice guy. I was showing him the Nikon Creative Lighting System. There were actually two flash-heads at about 3 feet, lower camera right. Flashes were set on manual at about 1/16 power. Camera was on manual mode. I looked on the LCD and said, 'Hey, that's not bad'. I really wasn't trying to set anything up for this shot and was simply demonstrating the wireless capabilities.

Thanks guys. I've been taking a few minutes each day to pull out the SB-800 and SB-600 and experiment with lighting and the manual mode on the D200. Loving it more and more. Turning up the flash power and closing down the aperture for dramatic lighting is really fun too. For this shot I was shooting 2.8. Flash heads on low power and 1/60th of a second shutter. What a cool system Nikon CLS is.
