Excellent shot. was this on a tripod or hand held? The iso is high, is there a reason? would lowering the iso and speed have any advantages? Lots of questions as this is fascinating. Regards. Gary

A few good shots, I cant help thinking that artistic vision has gone too far. Just my opinion. Regards Gary

Thanks for your comments, I sgree the monochrome was slightly off, the colour image was sharp on the eyes, possible that my processing has given the impression of missed focus. Thanks for the led tip, i had not noticed the elongated shadow. Very little light, cold conditions make it...

Hi Kodiak, thanks for your comments. I agree that the wall adds not a lot, it was used as a leaning prop for Molly. In retrospect there are better areas which will be revisited at that venue. The area we shot in was a dry moat of a castle now used as a walkthrough. The image contained some...

This shots were taken at Norwich Castle Gardens on a night photography workshop. They were lit from below with a speedlight in a kicker. Any comments or suggestions for improvements. Gary 1. d700, 35mm, f.2 1/80th 1600 iso 2. d700, 35mm, f.2 1/80th 1600 iso 2.

I viewed your flickr images, they are very good indeed. I think your images have a connection with the subject, they look relaxed with their expression totally spontaneous. With regards to these particular images of Rachel: the original studio shots did have problems with the neck creases...

Molly..from a recent night shoot in Norwich.

Spot on...cant believe I missed it. Now working perfectly!:) Thanks Craig I owe you one:ty:

not checked that...a friend played with my camera....it was compensated on the flash...good suggestion.

Thanks for your reply Mike,The preflash does not occur when using the D700 that is my quandary. Youtube shows various demonstrations but I have not seen this preflash stage kicking in.

Question for all you D750 owners. How do you stop the Preflash occuring when using the TX controller and D750. Set up is SB900 in TTL on the YN 622, TX controller on the camera, any setting you care to choose, all synced in with channels etc. Press the shutter and you get 3 pre flashes...

Very good images and blog. Lonďon would tempt me to get a Visa to leave Norfolk.

Graham, took the opportunity to look at your flickr page, i think this image is superb... D41_3895-Edit-Edit-2. If you can recreate this feel in your work then you have something a bit special. The featured photos of Ella are very competant, I cant add anything as I tend to take snapshots...

A very enjoyable set of photographs, I would be pleased to have taken them, and as the couple getting married, received them. Regards Gary
