These are from the black light session last night, our mutual

I don't have the technical details nailed down yet, especially with
incorporating flash, but I think I'm still getting some fun shots.

I'm impressed, Larry. These are really intriguing, and in LRC52581
in particular, very dramatic and eye-catching.

I'd like to suggest you try getting a few narrow focus LED
flashlights and experiment with illuminating the subjects hands and/
or feet. You might have to gel the LEDs to reduce the light to not
overwhelm.
That's a good idea. One goal with the flash is that no matter what,
it'll freeze the motion of the subject. I've used it before to good
effect, though that may have been a manual flash rather than using
this one on pttl.
The effect works best (for me) when the props outline a clearly
human form, as in LRC52581. I think some more rope, ribbon, what-
have-you to add to the outline, especially at joints and
extremities, would add to the effectiveness. Easy for me to say! :-)
I'll keep that in mind. The technique seems pretty popular and even if
I'm not coming up with more ideas on it, I expect other models will
ask for it.
BTW, do you use more than one black-light source?
Yeah, I've got a bunch of compact fluorescent black light bulbs. Two
over head and 3 on each side.
The whole effect reminds me greatly of the fantastic visuals in
Tron, one of my favourite movies.
I'm certain that this will lead to thread drift, but I'm pretty sure
that the Tron sequel is coming out fairly soon.
Cheers!
