improvise!

Since i no longer have any flash units and my D50 doesnt have Commander mode, i decided to get creative and start slapping some paper on the top of flashlights....

here is what i had setup:

Nikon D50
Nikon Nikkor 28mm f/2.8
2x Flashlights that have 11 LED's each with a "light cone"


i took these with my iPhone to show the setup in action


And the end result....


I know the composition isnt exactly perfect but considering i took some 8 1/2 x 11 paper and taped it into a cone and then jammed the flashlight into it... the lighting is pretty even.
