And use whatever light you have (flash and/or ambient) to shape the scene into a picture you have envisioned. Try to think of your desired output before actually taking the shot. :) Uy thanks for the link. ;)

In his shots, the light was going across the image - that's why they're defined. In the shots you shared, the light was pointing away from or to th camera. Another example of really well-defined rays of light is the one shot by my girl at <a href="http://drivebyshooter.net/2007/11/02/river-maya-bagong-liwanag/" rel="nofollow">the River Maya Bagong Liwanag Finals</a>. As for light pointing at you, using gobos (go-betweens) to partially block the light will help your image. You can find an example of this <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/15356595@N06/1838321726/" rel="nofollow">at my new flickr account</a>. Lastly, thanks for this post - I think I might have something new to write about on <a href="http://lightchasersphotography.com/" rel="nofollow">my new site</a>.
