Gaara, Hidden Sand Jinchuuriki
It's been a while since I posted any photos on my blog. So here one. Photog info: 85mm @ f2.2 for the bokeh. Larger apertures causes them to be less defined. I wanted it this way. ISO1000, handheld @1/8 shutter for the bokeh to register. SB600 fired to the left of the camera.
Hold on a second, 1/8 to handhold a 85mm lens? Impossible? I have super-steady hands? Wrong. Just turn off all the lights, that way, the camera can't 'see' the blurry Gaara due to camera shake. Only when the flash fires, does the camera register Gaara. Since flash happens only for fractions of a second, the final image has a sharp Gaara in it.

Nice pic bro…saw it in your Flickr as well…nice, very nice. U set the flash mode to backfill?

Nope. I shoot in manual, flash set to TTL and I adjust aperture to expose as needed.
