Flash Tips

For this weeks blog I looked online for some tips that adventure photographers use in winter setting. The first article I read was by Darren Rowse about photographing a skier in good light while not overexposing the background. To accomplish this, Rowse used a fill-flash with his camera while dropping the exposure from the automatic settings.

After reading this I went back to the main site and found another article about using flash in action photography. They had three tips that I'd like to try: slow sync flash, panning, and zooming during exposure. Slow sync flash is when you pair a flash with a slow shutter speed. Panning is moving the camera with your subject to give a blurred background, and zooming during exposure also blurs and conveys movement.
