Some Fun With Strobes

We had a great time during Christmas making photos. My Brother-in-law Kevin and his daughter helped me make these in fact my niece was the one behind the camera for this one. We wanted a black background with no distractions, so we dialed up the the shutter speed to the max flash sync (250). Then we killed the rest of the ambient light with an aperture setting of f8. Iso 400. We snooted an sb800 flash camera right at about 1/4 power to light up Kevin's face. And fired an sb800 pointed almost straight down over the table to light the balls.

Can you guess how we did this shot?
