- Sometimes flash can be used with long exposures to create some great effects, in this tutorial i experiment with mixing light types , long exposures and rear curtain sync. beginners don't be put off it can easily be done outside at night with a good flash a garage light and a medium level dslr Any decent camera and flash will have a rear curtain sync ,sometimes known as second curtain synchronisation setting. Set those to on. then all you need is a long exposure, during the long exposure with the camera on manual, you will see the model in movement , then try again with a flash you will see a movement then at the end the subject will be frozen by the flash, a normal flash sync setting would have the flash fire at the start of the exposure leaving the movement at the end.
Any beginner photographer can take images like this, if you have a model of course.
I am watching this in 2019. Amazing stuff!
Thank you Phillip! You're videos are not just educational, but entertaining, Bravo!
I loved it when you came out as the second model hahaa...lovely tutorial
Why u jealous .r u loose sometimes now u suggest him to replace her in future
this is amazing, I'm just practicing this technique and I love it, your images came out amazing.
Beautiful images! I'm finding so much inspiration in this video and I cannot wait to use these techniques in my studio work. Thank you for taking the time to post these lessons online.
This award-winning tutorial was made with love and passion, and that is all that matters.
Thanks for that lovely comment, Have I missed something when you say award winning ?
Excellent tutorial well explained and done with good humour. Beautiful you model and brilliant outcome . I'm a pro photographer from Australia but you never stop learning. Thanks Phill.
this is awesome! Amazed with the techniques that you showed here in a very simple but stunning way! Now I need a couple of things to equip myself before doing this experiment. Thanks a lot Phillip as you taught me the thing that haunted me for months!...
You are the best! Great explanation, cheap but good quality items,awesome photos and really funny video at the same time! Great job!
Love your personality and technique! :)
Such a great tutorial, perfectly laid out, thank you.
Phillip, you are one of the best, and a fun guy, too :). Thanks so much for this tutorial.
Thanks for that very informative lesson! I enjoyed watching you work and explaining the technique-you're a good teacher
One of the best videos i have ever seen!!! Class photography!!!
wow awesome tutorial! I thought myself how to photograph when I purchased my first dslr earlier this year in februrary. I watch youtube videos and read online. I got the hang of it and I'm pretty good but there's new things I'm always learning. I loved this tutorial since I have been looking as to how to do long exposure photography with flash in the dark. I had read and seen a video about this before where they explained that flash freezes the subject but I never knew you could use it at the end. Very awesome! And I will try to put it into my photos!
BTW! Georgia is a beautiful model!!!!
"The important thing when you're taking pictures of the model is not look better than the model."
LOL at the "other model".
Phillip you are truly the real deal mate, so knowledgeable, its amazing what you can do with a bare bones setup. There is no substitute for experience, Great Video & wonderful images!
Love this!!!! You have just become a legend in my books...
Finally someone that can have a laugh and not take themselves so seriously. I love your sense of humor. Keep up the good work. I subscribed.
Great Vid Phillip Thank You.
Again you show what can be done with simple rather than costly or complex!
More of this is needed imo to bring photography back to an enjoyable affordable pastime for more people rather than a marketers money drainer!
Thanks for the great exercise. A very efficient and interesting way of understanding second curtain.
well, i was going to spend thousands and thousands of dollars on a degree in photography...but instead i think i'll watch your videos! Thank u so much! Really the best i have seen after hours and hours of youtube, you are concise, detailed and witty...and exquisite shots on top of that. nice.
You are great sir. That is an eye opener. Looking forward to learn more.
Nice video, and Georgia is adorable!
Awesome, Phillip, just awesome! Much thanks!
Great work, great images. great video. Thanks a lot.
Very creative, Phillip! Thank you for sharing.
I really enjoyed watching this. Very informative. Thank you!
Beautiful photographs, my friend. I've always wanted to do this kind of shoot. Thanks for reminding me.
I really enjoy your videos, they teach more more than what I am in learning in class. Maybe I should say I understand better because of your videos. Thank you so much.

Wow! Great lesson, photos and the model!
Very interesting to watch! Love all your videos.
Lovely fella with great KNAWLEG. Fun vid keep them up
Hi Phillip, thank you very much for this excellent tutorial. It took some practice but I was able to make some very cool imagery using small 4 " classical statues. I suspended cupid with dental floss and made him fly into the frame to " strike the heart " of a female . In another, " Clash of the Titans " I have Ajax rushing to confront Poseidon , in a nice swoosh , as he waves him off with the back of his hand. Next stop is the university for some athletes - it should be really, really cool. One error I made , was not considering the reflectivity index of my subjects, so the first shots with green figurines had no light trails, ( Cupid & company were white ) then I reasoned, the darker the subject, the, more light, longer shutter speed or wider aperture required. It was a great exercise that yielded great results. A fantastic skill to have in the kit. Thanks again, couldn't be happier. It goes with out saying , you are a great teacher and presenter. Keep up the great work !.
hahahaha sounds great will keep that in mind
mannnn im just so happy to finally tell ppl u r never too old to do photos n direct em here
u r an inspiration
fantastic! Love the results!
I really love your teaching techniques and the way that you keep your videos moving i wish i could pay for a photography class and have it all on video, superb!
Many thanks , your comment is much appreciated .

Mick

So much thanks for your video. Your video just help me so much to confirm about using ambient light with flash light at the same time.
Really enjoyed your video...informative, interesting and humorous!!!
Okay THAT, was cool as hell! Very beautiful shots and inspiring tutorial.
so funny, loved your sense of humor in this
Thank you so much for sharing Its so nice to learn from you Sir
Surprised this doesn't have more views. Gorgeous model, and cool old man. XD
Great great tutorial!
I have a shoot with a model, that's about free dance style (some sort of ballet in fact) in the start of oktober.
So this, could prove to be a very useful tutorial for me in the near future. I'll send the link her way and I'll let you know what she has to say. :)
I have all the flashes/lights needed, so I can experiment with all the types. :D (If my model is willing of course...)
Great pictures, perfect model, love the humor, etc.... ^^
Thank you for a very nice tutorial!
great video sir.very informative.
Amazing! A passionate photographer, gentle and beautiful dancer and hand-painted background turned these photos into masterpieces. Respect!
Many thanks for your super comment :)
Awesome job! My workmates were dazzled, they were actually doubting the tutorial, but awesome!
Awesome photos!!!
This is so well explained. Thank you so much.
Thankyou :)
Some pretty neat photos.
You're great! And hilarious.
I'll follow you x
Fantastic video man! one of your best! keep up the good work :D
I have 2 300 SF and 2 600 SF and they work very well. I can synchronize them at 1/8000th too. Thanks for the video, Mr McCordall. Good as always.
Love that first one with the white cloth added. I hope she gets a copy of those pictures. ;) They are quite stunning.

Even after years, im watching this video. Thank you Mr. Philip
Glad you enjoyed it, even the old ones are still relevant :)
Stunningly beautiful images - especially the first one. I'm planning to try the same technique (rear curtain sync) on black swans in my local river. It's a pity that I won't be able to use side lighting (off camera flash) in this scenario. I'll be forced to use the speedlight on the camera. I guess I could try a diffuser to soften the flash at least.
Excellent pics n vdo too. Loved phil's energy too.
What I like in your videos is that you show techniques that are quite accessible to the "average" photographer. You're showing here that even without the latest Zeiss lens, one can get GREAT results if stuff is used properly and if (mainly) we use our imagination. So true! Thank you!
Excelente vídeo...Fortalecí mis conocimientos...gracias
Awesome images, bravo!
