Hi everyone, In the Royal Wedding 'sales' this weekend, I purchased myself an Olympus PEN EPL-1. It comes with the 14mm-40mm lens, but I am looking at getting one with a bigger zoom on it. I am also very interested in a Viewfinder. Obviously Olympus do lens' and viewfinders themselves...

Really good pictures. I live in Chichester so have been to goodwood quite a few times! Really captures the feeling of the day! I love the facial expressions of 1 and 3. Great set. On another note, I actually know the girl in number 2! Was quite funny to see her pop up!

I will just add a few more, you made a good point, hope you think these capture the essence of the the US.

I'm trying to take some portrait photos, and the light is all wrong, I'm going to invest in an umbrella, but would a lamp from somewhere like homebase, with a daylight bulb work behind it just to shed some more natural light? At the moment I'm not in a position to pay much , so while it is...

Thanks EdBray, and this is where I really sound like an idiot! How would i use it with a softbox? I have seen them used, but not quite sure how to do it!!

Thanks flashman, any particular ones you would recommend?
