Portraits: The Cai Collection

It's been ages since my last post and if Mica was here, she'll be telling me "oi! Mag update ka!" :)) Well I have a very reasonable excuse naman for my backlogs and that is because I'm finally doing what I set out to do. I'm living my life to the fullest and have been squeezing every bit of activity that my weekends and vacation leaves can accommodate and I guess blogging just didn't make the list. Cause seriously, I'd rather stuffed my camera rather than my laptop inside my backpack during my trips. Can't have them both though, that would be a backbreaker :) excuses excuses... :))

Anyhoo, one my recent trips was at Pampanga during the Hot Air Balloon Festival. I was with three other bloggers and a Pokemon. Darwin, the comically-dramatic one; the great and almighty Marky; Cai the diva and apple of Darwin's eye; and ofcourse there was Snorlax :D  and as much as I want to elaborate further, this post is all about Cai and not about that trip. Cai recently started a  weekly project entitled "project 52 looks" on her blog, PinkUrinal.com and with that, I finally have her approval to post my photos of her during our Bolinao trip. So Darwin, enjoy :))

YN460-II: Test Shot

In relation to my previous post about the Yongnou Speedlite 460-II, I got the chance to borrow my friend, Princess Dee's D90, she does make-up for all kinds of event by the way, a certified make-up artist for a fraction of the cost, you can PM me here or go to her facebook page MakeUpbyPrincessDee for more details :D  Anyway, back to her camera, the Nikon D90 has a built-in remote that could be use to trigger an external flash thus giving me the perfect opportunity to try out the YN460-II as a slave flash. So far, I'm satisfied with this trial shot given that I was in a rush (had to go to a post-Christmas party hosted by Princess as well, she's also a chef btw =D> ) and never really had time to atleast arrange the set (my room/dump site :)) ). Please excuse the model too, I had no one else with me that time except for my tripod so live with it! /wahaha
See the photo after the jump and be amazed... or nauseated... your call :D
