It's Alive!

My once dead Vivitar 285HV has returned from the grave, and I've been having lots of fun with it. As I was perusing my collection of photographs yesterday, I came across these test shots I made at the local laundromat. I was stuck at the laundromat with a lot of time on my hands cleaning and refluffing the sleeping bag and jacket that I used on my trip to Heather Lake. I thought, what the heck, I might as well try setting my SB-800 to slave mode. The Vivitar (connected to a wireless remote trigger) acted as the master. That's the beauty of carrying your gear everywhere you go, there's never a dull moment. Now to be honest, I don't usually carry two flashes with me, but in this instance I had taken the Vivitar to the local camera shop to buy a hot shoe to mini plug adapter when I discovered that the Vivitar was alive again. Good times.
