003/365 Green glass and wind chimes

Day 3

A continuation of the Merry Christmas theme.

These pretty wind chimes will find a home outside soon... right outside my front door hanging on the front porch. A very welcoming item, especially on a breezy day!

Photo info:   Shot with off camera 580EXII flash about 4 ft below/left of green glass, at 1/16th power.

Lesson's learned:   Flash won't fire when 5DIII is in live view shooting.  Was driving me crazy until I figured that out.  Still wondering why that is so...?

Update:  Just found this in the manual: I need to set Silent LV Shooting to Disable for non-Canon flash units.  I'm using a Canon flash, but triggering it with Photix wireless unit.  So that is probably the reason it didn't fire...  I think I'll just avoid Live View with flash photography when using the Photix triggers. Simple!
