Evening All, Looking for comments or advice please, I'm covering a Prize Giving on the 1st December. I shot the same event last year and the guests requested that prints be available for purchase on the night. So I think I need to hire a printer. Does anyone have any experience with this...

Sorry to hear you were in Hospital, hope all is well now! Shots look good, definitely got potential. I've done a lot of light trails and the like recently and hoped for some blue flashers but no luck. Possibly worth going back round about the hospital to get a different view? They look a...

Hi Guys & Gals, Sorry for the lack of updates recently. I'm just back from a 2 week Holiday in Mallorca. Will try and get back on with this 52 once i've got everything else back under control :naughty: John

Doing a further year at college, on a PDA course. John

Cheers guys for the lovely comments. It only goes A,B,C etc. theres no + or - It was a full time HND course of which these images came from my second and final year. The tennis ball is infact spinning on the spot, all that was needed was a drawing pin, elastic band and some kind of stand/hook...

First one is shot against a black bed sheet, - 1/100th at f18, again underexposing the ambient light. The ball is backlit with a flash gun from each side. John

It's not so much to do with the power of flash. More to do with the exposure being too fast for daylight to appear. The balloon was shot at 1/800th with f7.1 so that the daylight was massively underexposed and just went black. Flash was then set in high speed sync mode to light correctly for...

Balloon was hung from my washing line in bright sunlight and shot with flash to light the balloon but not the background. No fancy triggers, and continuous shoot is no use as the flash will only fire once without recharging. So it's just timing it all correctly for the one shot. John

Tennis ball is obviously spinning, it was dipped in water and then spun! Anyone guess how it was spun? John

It's on a home-made set of steps against a black background with multiple flash. A fair bit of trial and error involved!! John

Thanks very much to everyone who's commented so far!! Someone asked where I go from here, I've got myself a place on a PDA course at college so it's a one year course, after that I might look at a University course, or just get out there in the big bad world and hopefully get some work. Once...

"Medical Outrage today as funding for NHS head lice checking hits an all time low"

Thanks Natasha :) I'm well chuffed with my result, 2 A's in 2 Years Study :D

Thanks very much guys! It was a self initiated brief, which I wrote to the theme of Applied Photography, High Speed Flash, Polarization, Technical type stuff.... John

Well I've just received the results from my second and final year of an HND at college and am very pleased to announce that I achieved an A in my graded unit. (I wanted some smileys in here but I can't have any when I'm posting ten images lol I'll just put =D =D instead!) Submitted images are...
