Lately I have been toying with off camera flash, and trying to learn a few new tricks.  My trusty model has been working for milk bones, and as you can see is getting pretty good at working the camera.  Here I am underexposing the background by a stop in order to gain some saturation, and then have a SB-800 off to camera right, pushed up one stop.  Over the next few days I am going to post a few more images, and please tell me what you think.
