Good while it lasted, but it’s better empty.
For a bit over a week now, I’ve been caning around without the massive boot you see in this picture. Yes, there is flash in this shot at the usual starter setting of -1 and 1/3 stops under on the flash output. I’ve just learned that the TSA has wooden loaner canes at the airport. I’ll borrow one of theirs since my aluminum buddy needs to take a trip through the x ray machine.
Yes, the cane is still one of my best friends.
