Re: How I plan a landscape shoot

Ah but thats the joy of landscape, theres x amount of trips that dont live up to their promise but those rare ones that do make it worth all the early starts, cold feet and fingers, fuel and time. Its a masochistic pastime for sure but one Id not want to give up easily

Thats some list, I hope that when we read your review of the year blog you have achieved a good many of your goals. More time for creative stuff is mine for this year, oh and more time in the garden,to stay well and to keep laughing

Crikey Russ, that's some commitment. Good on you. What on earth is a 70.3 triathlon?

Having just bought my first SLR mate (I went with the Canon) I want to do plenty of snappy happy trips myself - living right near macc forest I'll start with there! As for other goals - I've entered a 70.3 triathlon in July and want to cycle john ogroats to lands end - both of which I am doing for the Christie to add to the charity work from last year

Thanks Neil. Had missed that I had chopped her tootsies off - post was all a bit rushed. Will certainly share details of grid's in another post - great idea

Hi Neil, nice post. I like the location shot so that we have an idea of the lighting and the finished image is good. Not sure about the crop just cutting off her toe? How about a picture of the home-made grid, it could be the incorporated in another post.

Re: So who needs flash for a head shot?

Love the warmth in the indoor portrait quite a contrast to the outdoor version (probably rhododendron or azalea at this time of year ) .Have a strong preference for using available light over flash and these prove it

Beautiful Images of Malta, your work makes me feel like I'm actually standing there. Amazing. I love the Island and have been visiting since being a child. Thank you for sharing these.

A very powerful set of images, your use of shadow and light is particularly effective. Very well done indeed.
