KavaWava In reply to KaMiKaZeStRiP [2005-05-17 03:26:49 +0000 UTC]

thanks the light source is actually just a flash unit in my hands set on slave mode so that when the camera takes a picture it triggers the flash to go off.

KavaWava In reply to wolfmaid [2005-05-06 02:55:37 +0000 UTC]

it was actually really simple, i just had a remote flash unit in my hands and i had the camera trigger the flash which i pointed straight into the lens to achieve the flare.
