Dragonball Characters – Gohan

Gohan is a fictional character in the Dragonball series. He is the first son of Goku and Chi-Chi, which makes him a half Saiyan. Gohan is named after Goku’s grandfather and he made his first appearance in the first episode of the DragonballZ series, whereby Goku brought him to Master Roshi’s island during a reunion with Goku’s friend. Gohan’s initial appearance was seen as a 5 year old monkey tailed boy, just like his father when he was a boy. Although Goku wanted to train him to be a fighter, Chi-Chi has other plans, preferring her son to be a scholar and achieve success in studies instead.

As a boy, Gohan possesses an unlimited amount of power however it can only be seen whenever he is in a moment of rage. At times, his power level could even surpass that of Goku and Vegeta. After Goku’s death, Gohan was forced to train under Piccolo, who initially frightened his due to his intimidating appearance, however Gohan soon embraced Piccolo as his own father and acquired his fighting skills from Piccolo.

Gohan’s character in the series changed as time goes by. His first appearance as a boy followed him to become a man and which he eventually got married.

During his teenage years, Gohan developed an alter ego called “The Great Saiyaman”. The idea was first conceived when he felt that he needed to disguise himself after turning Super Saiyan, thus he approached Bulma to invent him a device which would enable him to change clothes at the push of a button.

In the Dragonball series, Gohan plays an important role in the battle against Cell and Buu. During that time, he has mastered the ability to control the limitless amount of power that he possesses and could defeat his enemies at ease.

Flower Setup

Strobist Information:

I couldn’t help noticing that Flickr is desperately short of flower pictures so I figured that it was my duty as a contributor to this fine photographic resource to add a couple more! LOL

The flowers in question were all purchased from the Brisbane Sunday flower market and the pictures will eventually be incorporated into Keoula’s spring dress collection. In the meantime, they are making a guest appearance in the nickwheeleroz 08 Flickr photo collection.

I tried a variety of backgrounds, but the ‘brief’ was to shoot them on white which I mostly stuck too. I used a couple of the tile boards from my white background trials to shoot against. I placed my large DIY softbox as the main light and used a second diffused SB-28 to light the flowers from below. I placed a third Sunpak 383 pointing towards the back tile board to give the white background.

All the pictures were taken with a variation on this setup. The blue background in the second yellow flower picture was created by turning the background light off so the white went to grey and then setting the white balance to tungsten in Lightroom.

The yellow flowers were also in a bit of a sorry state so there was quite a lot of touching up in Paint Shop Pro as well as the cloning of the odd petal here and there to fill in a few gaps!

As an aside, if anyone knows what the purple or yellow flowers are called, please do drop a note in the comments. It would be good to give the pictures a better title than ‘yellow flower’! The purple flowers also had pink and yellow variations in the bunch and the petals felt like paper.

Update: Thank you to everyone for identifying the gerbera’s and statis, I have updated the titles and tags accordingly.
