Hi all,

Just stumbled across this forum while doing some flash research and found it very helpful. Hope to take advantage of the knowledge of my fellow members and contribute my limit knowledge when I can.

My main subjects are cityscapes/architectural (especially night work) and travel photography, and most recently my newborn. So I'm always looking for new ideas on how to photograph him!

My current gear list includes a D5100 with 18-55mm kit lens, Sigma 18-200mm F/3.5-6.3 II DC OS HSM, and a Dolica AX620B100 Tripod with Ball Head & Pan Head.

Will be adding a flash very soon, most likely the YongNuo HN565EX. After that will likely get the Nikon 35mm 1.8, both of which should help immensely to grab shots of the little one.

​Guidelines to adding a photo to your post.

1. Resize photo to 1000px on the long side.
2. Resolution set to 72ppi (Pixels Per Inch)

These guidelines will be good for viewing on a computer but will not be good for printing. This will help safeguard your copyright.

I just got the 565 a little while ago, to go along with the 568 (wanted one flash with HSS), and they're awesome! You'll love it if you get it. P.S- Go Wings. ;-)

It's a great flash for sure. And we'll see how well your team of young partiers do, and if Kane can stay out of trouble. And if you wanna throw Hossa back our way... I hate him, but I'll take him. haha.
