    Looking for new bag

    I have to say that up until recently I have had a huge camera bag obsession - I had a bag for weddings, a bag for location shoots and another for working in the studio - I decided that enough was enough and I wanted one that would do all of the above and more! I went with the Incase DSLR Pro...

    Just bought this... Cheap!

    Always great when you get a bargain - a friend of mine brought an old Nikon film camera at a car boot sale for £5 - the only reason he brought it was the 50mm 1.4 lens that was attached the front - amazing piece of glass! Happy Snapping

    BlackRapid straps...

    I have owned the BR strap for what seems like ages now - I LOVE it - It is comfortable to wear and (touch wood) feels incredibly secure. Great info on the customer service they provided :)

    Which do you use - lightmetre or screen & histogram

    As above - I use a lightmetre on all shoots (inside and outside) but know a lot of people who don't. I wondered what peoples thoughts are on the subject?

    I think that the PP is spot on - a really great use of the technique - have to agree about the grey on the top right (but thats easy to get rid of) Love it!

    Lil Jess

    Thanks for the comments guys - the yellowness is PP I went for a vintage feel! Maybe that doesnt work?? I also think that cropping can be one of the most subjective things in photography - I always like the subject touching the edge of the frame. Gotta love photography :thumbs:

    We recently built a white infinity curve in our studio and alond one side we have full windows. The natural light has been tempting me for a while so as we were setting up one of our model nights I grabbed 2-3 shots with our fab model Lil Jess. comments welcome:wave:
