Summary: <p> Richard wants to shoot the northern lights in Iceland with a 12 year old DSLR and you can hear Chris finally say that sometimes it’s in fact the gear., Andy points us to a cause that’s worth volunteering for, Joe reports back on his brother-in-law’s successes with his box camera and Ryan wonders about the advantages of shooting ETTL flash over manual. Also Chris will tell you a very embarrassing story about how he got his creative butt kicked by a lens with the wrong filter diameter.</p> <p style="padding: 5px;"><a style="color: #687ac4; font-family: roboto; font-size: 12px; display: block; margin-left: 6px; margin-right: 6px; margin-top: 6px; text-decoration: none; background: #fff; border-color: #687ac4; padding: 10px 20px 10px 20px; text-align: center; vertical-align: middle;" href="http://www.tipsfromthetopfloor.com/get-tfttf-updates-via-email/">RECEIVE EMAIL FOR NEW EPISODES</a></p> <p><strong>Links:</strong></p> <ul> <li> <a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/nubui/albums/72157674224100615" target="_blank">Telephoto Long Exposures of Donegal</a> </li> <li> <a href="http://dein-sternenkind.eu/" target="_blank">Dein Sternenkind – freiwillige Fotografen gesucht</a> </li> <li> <a href="https://www.nowilaymedowntosleep.org/" target="_blank">Now I Lay Me Down To Sleep – volunteer photographers wanted</a> </li> <li> <a href="https://slack-files.com/T0X9ERVDF-F0XHU8T0S-6fc7e3a867" target="_blank">Participate in the challenge – Join the TFTTF Slack</a> </li> </ul> <ul> <li><a href="http://tipsfromthetopfloor.com/podcastmedia/tfttf746_embarrassingstory.mp3" target="_blank">Download the MP3 for this episode</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.tipsfromthetopfloor.com/get-tfttf-updates-via-email/">Receive TFTTF updates via email</a></li> </ul> <p style="padding: 20px; margin-top: 50px; margin-bottom: 50px; font-size: 80%; background: #FFFDEB;"> <strong>Photo tours with Chris Marquardt:</strong><br> » May 2017: Svalbard — Arctic (sold out)<br> » <a href="http://discoverthetopfloor.com/workshop.php?event=2017_bhutan_happiness_kingdom">Oct 2017: Bhutan — The Happiness Kingdom (only 1 spot open)</a><br> » <a href="https://discoverthetopfloor.com/workshop.php?event=2018_ladakh">Jan 2018: Ladakh — Chadar Trek</a><br> » <a href="https://discoverthetopfloor.com/workshop.php?event=2018_ireland">Aug 2018: Ireland — Giant's Causeway</a><br> » <a href="https://discoverthetopfloor.com/workshop.php?event=2018_lofoten">Sep 2018: Norway — Lofoten Fantastic Fjords</a><br> » <a href="https://discoverthetopfloor.com/workshop.php?event=2018_morocco">Oct 2018: Morocco</a><br> » <a href="http://discoverthetopfloor.com/" target="_blank">all photo tours</a> </p> <p>The post <a rel="nofollow" href="https://tipsfromthetopfloor.com/2016/09/29/tfttf746-embarrassing-story/">746 An Embarrassing Story</a> appeared first on <a rel="nofollow" href="https://tipsfromthetopfloor.com">PHOTOGRAPHY TIPS FROM THE TOP FLOOR</a>.</p>
