Thunder

Thunder, a photo by Ragoem on Flickr.

This afternoon Sverre and I were goofing around in our garden, when I decided that it was a while ago that I had taken some picture of him. So out came the camera, but (you would not say it looking at this picture) it was very sunny with some clouds drifting by. Because I wanted to fil the shadows with some light and use the sun as a rim I grabbed my westcott Apollo mini with my F58AM flash and a TTL-cable. The cable came out because the light conditions were changing constant and Sverre was playing, so to do it manualy would be a hell. So I set my A900 to Program (yes, normaly I would never use P but I knew it would do the job I wanted) connected the Flash in the apollo to the camera and shot several pictures of Sverre. When I saw these clouds come by, I sat down on the ground to get this angle and asked Sverre to look in the flash what he reluctantly did. (as you can see ;-) ) Changed the color a bit to blue with a bit desaturation and added some contrast in photoshop.
