Talk her into getting a used 16-35L mk I - I absolutely LOVED mine on the 40D. Got a set from it here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/dk_spook/sets/72157604668673852/ Like a 17-40L - but F/2.8 ;)

Congratulations on your new lens! If you have a flash, THIS should help you tremendously :)

Thanks! You have a good point... Less clutter! I'll remember that for my next shoot :)

Thanks man :)

Fun indeed - 4 speedlites and a ton of gels :) Thank you!

Then we hit another dark and sinister alley, and just went nuts with the gels: Comments, critisism, questions and outright bashings most welcome.

Some time ago I promised my fellow photographer Adam that I would shoot some pictures of him for his blog. Last night we finally had the time and spent 3 hours in dark alleys - Comments and critisism most welcome! This setup: Lead to this shot: and this one: Shut off the...

That's it, I'm going. Thats all there is to it, I'm *****ing going!
