Making It Rain

Congratulations, Janika S. Fotographie! Janika snagged top honors in March's rain-themed photo contest. She wins $250 MagBucks for her victory, and the eternal admiration of Team MagMod. Keep reading to see the modifiers and camera settings she used to get the shot.

Here's how Janika got the shot:

"Canon 5d Mark iii was used with 35mm lens. ISO 1000 - F/2 – 1/160 sec. The flash was behind the couple with MagSphere and the flash was set to TTL."

How Dave got the shot:

"One radio flash on the ground behind the couple in a ziploc bag (with the MagMod on the outside securing it). Super easy thanks to MagMod  Taken with a Nikon D4s and 70-200 2.8 at 1/500 F2.8 ISO 1250"

 Here’s how Jack G got the shot:

"Remote gelled flash about 12 feet behind couple, 85mm f1.4, 1/200, ISO 100, flash power full, couple placed close to camera & trees to get a little bounce backlight to illuminate the side closest to camera."

Here's how Sean got the shot:

"For this shot, I took my couple out in the rain and put my MagSphere on a Godox speedlight. To prevent the unit from getting wet, I also put a large, clear plastic bag over it. To create some compression and soft bokeh in the background, I shot this with a 105mm lens at f1.6."

Bravo to all of our winners! Thanks for being awesome!
