Dark background is very important, or you can underexpose the background.
This is ( http://evrimgallery.com/Proofs/JacquelineM/jacq_2_023s.jpg ) one that worked a little better than another one, in which it was very dim bulding, but i was using 1hz (1 flash every second), and even at f22, the background registered. Also, the GN drops radically with this approach, and with a high f number, even more so. -e > Flash frequency > If you want to try strobe photography (many flashes on one > frame) your new > gun has the capability to not only vary the time between > flashes but also > the total number.
