Alan,
I can only assume that you have been good so Santa visited you?
I have not seen Santa yet
Did you have more than 1 flash going off? The lighting looks very even or is that how a 580 works?
Your bud should be happy with that.

Sorry Kevin. He flipped me off when he saw me. So no, I guess I haven't been good. (just kidding)

The 580EX was mounted on the hot shoe.
The starbursts you see on all of the lights are a result of the Star Effect Filter much like this one.

No, you haven't been good ask anyone. He flipped you off because no one likes the paparazzi.

Alan,
So was that shot cropped at all? I was surprised of all the available light spread evenly. I though that possibly you set up some lights on the street also.
Now I guess I have to look into a 580

Hey Kevin. I did crop a little but it was only to get rid of the back of the neighbors truck across the street.
The only light I used was my 580EX on camera.
