Strobist. Lighting For Photo. Photo critique. 13 Photography Lighting Video Tutorials. The following is a collection of thirteen video lighting tutorials. The main premise is that after watching those videos you’ll know to light a little bit better, or at least pick up a trick or two. Now watching those will not make you better pictures, you’ll actually have to go out and shoot some. Hopefully those videos, some only using one light, will provide lots and lots of motivation to try new things.

Pro Photo Life – Outdoor Portraits #1 A great video that shows the difference between natural light bounced from the floor, a big white reflector and a softbox + strobe (link) A Dance With Light – Richard Patterson Photographer Richard Patterson takes us through a session of shooting an arial silk acrobat and a dancer from the New York City Ballet (link). Lighting It Up in Austin with Robert Seale Photographer Robert Seale does an amazing walk through of a location shoot from scouting, through the various setups and lighting modifiers. OneLight Workshop DVD 2 LeBron James: Making the Shot. DIY: Lee Filters Flash Adapter. Last night I was inspired and decided to put together an idea that been bugging me since the day I received my 4 Lee Filter sample packs from Musikhaus Thomann. I had already made a filter adapter for the Canon flashes but then when I received the Lee filters sample package I wonder how could I use the package on the field without having to put some Tape or Velcro on them prior to the assignment.

Since I always carry the all package containing the 287 small sample colored filters with me and sometimes only on the field I decide which one's to choose, or none, it started to be very difficult to have them all with tape and Velcro (like the CTO and Green one's I already have made). In general I think this is one of the accessories, if you use the filters too much, that you cannot live without it in you bag or pocket or wallet.

If you follow the last example of the Black Straws Snoot then you are half way there ;) Here is a picture of the stuff we are going to need to accomplish this project.
