    I can't believe we're at 20! And congrats to nthfinity on the last contest.

    This one should be good:

    Artificial lighting techniques.

    IE you can use a flash, bulbs, headlights, flashlights, soft lights, florescent; and even day/moonlight, as long as you also have use of an artificial light on the subject of the photo that shows. Feel free to use PS/ Lightroom to bring out the most of it... but the man made light has to be real

    Post up your entries here and please name them as your username (ie 4rephotographer.jpg) Also please make it very clear if your entry is an actual entry, a sample or a re-entry.

    Good luck!

    Did you use off camera flash on the car?

    No, but there were street lights behind me in the parking lot that illuminated the car and the ground.

    Is there man-made light on the subject?

    Indeed! That's a great photo though. Very abstract.

    Please Clarify...
    This contest is to shoot with 2 sources of Light???
    1 is artificial
    and the other is natural

    in Combination..

    A flash over the natural lit subject

    which leads to very fast shutter speeds


    Right??

    You just need some form of artificial light.

    Ok.... RULES BY THE BOOK this time!!!!

    Mrs Jedi and I went for pizza and jazz at a local jazz club TONIGHT!! Our table
    faced a brick wall in this rather dark room. The horn dude came out onto the
    floor during a solo and I think I blinded him with flash :p:p At least it was
    heavily bounced, so hopefully not too bad for him - I normally wouldn't use
    flash, but it was too good a chance to pass up. He didn't beat me up with
    his horn, nor did he fling our pizza on the floor.... so all's well. The colored
    ceiling lights were UGLY so I converted to B/W and pumped the contrast.
    The "hand" behind him is painted on the wall.

    So this is my official entry :)

    Sorry it didn't "fit the rules" (my first didn't either :p).... but that's a nice
    shot - it tells a story in a single frame, IMO.

    Nice shot, Pops!

    At first, I thought it was graffiti art!

    Very cool! The B&W edit works very well here. The hand painted on the wall also adds a lot to the image. Very nicely done!

    Nice shot but I think that is technically a Flugelhorn not a trumpet. ;)

    ;)

    I need to remember to take some shots for this one!!

    Actually, you are correct! But he plays both - at one point during the show
    he played both AT THE SAME TIME!! Yep - two horns on his lips both playing
    harmony at the same time. Never seen anything like that.... got quite the
    applause from the crowd.
