As a Nikon shooter that uses several CLS strobes and PW strobist style, I can chuckle at these stories. I am sure I am now cursed for smiling and the same will happen to me.
But knowing it's comming is where the real lols come in. Then again I would imagin that these tales would loose some of their thunder hummmm Yeah, it just does not have the same ring to it.
Funny story! As long as it just stays for some ****s and giggles and the guy was able to get the shots he wanted, its all good. You should of ordered an anonymous for him, told the bartender to say its from the guy flashing you
This really does seem cruel if you mean that it fired in his face. Also seems a bit mean to drain the guy's batteries and mess up recycling times. Overall somewhat funny story, though.
There seems to be some resentment in interrupting his work. I didn't. He still got his Masif at the Family @ Family. Brisbane - Fri 13th Feb, 2009 | Photos | inthemix.com.au 8 pages of photos up. I didn't cause him to miss any shots, just confused him a bit. Also he had a 20 pack of AAs since he also runs his D90 off them. Oh and I know the guy, I am sure we'll laugh about it if I ever tell him I did it. Have some :hug:: :hugs: because damn man you need them. Or did I bring back nasty memories from one of your shoots
Life is too damn short to sweat the small stuff. He didn't loose any shots, no harm, no foul. Just smile and move on. If it happens to me, I'll just look around for the guilty looking fool with a strobe hidden under his/her table.
I dont care that is some funny stuff like he said he wasent doing it whan he was lined up for a shot.........
