Thank you sir! Looks great.

You are welcome Sir!

Thanks for the pictures Foy.

Perhaps we should have an LED picture competition; who can take the coolest shots of LED’s?

(My friends think I’m lifeless.) :weary:

Nice shot Xiotis!!!

Thank you Relic38, it’s a nice light too!
I already opened a new ‘flashlight photography’ thread to post more flashlight photos :slight_smile:

Awesome pictures, unfortunately I cant find any pictures of XRE and XPE side by side, they look the same to me, but there is some difference in size or?

You can see the difference here on brted’s wiki:

The ring around the XR-E is square while round on the XP-E.

I posted these in the flashlight photography thread, but I thought they are appropriate here as well.

Alright, thanks!
So it looks like XR-E has huuuge metalic square around it while XP-E has nothing but the dome on top of it, nice, now I know that all my lights ar XP-E, because I cant see that giant square around LED in any of my lights :D!

I think your pictures are more interesting. If you are going to do Macro... DO IT! The ones on CPF are clear but yours show "Life". A little better lighting and yours will lose the grain and be even more interesting. Nice! Thanks for sharing.

Dan.

I simply cannot believe you with your “only available light so they’re grainy” stuff, oh please man you’re surrounded by lights!!! Fire one up and shoot away! lol Seriously, I use a Triple Nichia 219 on med mode to get my macro’s

If you don’t like the “hot spot” pull a reflector and use it as a mule, :wink:

The one or two experiments I've tried to supplant available light with a flashlight looked horrible. It seems the only pictures that turn out are when there is abundant, indirect light. That was available in the kitchen of our last house from around noon to 6pm or so. Good light never happens in this stupid house but the short wall on the side "yard" is perfect most of the time, except with the sun at high noon.

I really need to master macro using flash.
