How to take good pictures under HPS lights

Finally figured this out last night. Its quite simple, its all in your F stops and Shutter speed.

So, If you have a camera that will let you manually adjust the iris and shutter speed here's what you should have it on....

Iris: F 8 (most iris' go to 11, if its still to bright you may want to stop down)

Shutter 1/1000 - this is about as fast as some shutters are and the faster your shutter speed the clearer and darker the picture will be.

Finally, the power of your HPS will have been all but canceled out so you'll want to turn on your flash. You'll get a well lit, but not trashy looking flash photo. Like these....
