I just had a notification to say that you had posted in your 365 again! I am sorry to hear about your loss Gary...

I believe some of the staff carried walkie talkies! Real problem if that is what is causing it as I'm taking photos for every course from now on. May have to take my sync cable from now on :( I thought it may have been the connection between camera and TT1 and Flash Guns and TT5's so checked...

Thought I would share a few shots of a friend of mine at the local lake. The weather was really overcast and dull and he is just getting his knee strength back up, so wasn't out very long. Was good seeing him ride again though.

Hey Hoppy, They are the EU versions, have emailed their customer support so will let you know what they say. Been thinking about changing them to RadioPoppers as I've heard nothing but good things about them. Have you ever had any troubles with PW's?

Hi Hoppy, The guns were close, within 3 metres! I have the latest firmware on all my PocketWizards and all my flashguns are 580EX's (not MkII's). Shots were taken in One Shot mode. No one else in the centre was using Pocket Wizards or any other type of radio transmitter. I was in the...

Hi all, I've just finishing shooting an indoor freestyle course at Hemel Hempstead Snow Centre, but had a few issues with my Pocket Wizards - so much so I was close to throwing them out the window. I use a Mini TT1 for the Transmitter and I have 4 x Flex TT5's for the Receivers, during the...

This season I was a photographer in a Ski resort, it was purely for me to live out there whilst enjoying my Snowboarding. As the season progressed I became aware of a company called 'Huck Cancer' which is a charity based in the mountains, they are obviously a cancer charity and considering I...

Hey Dan, Sorry, just seen this!! Been away all weekend... If I were you, I would go for the shoot through umbrella -yes you lose a tiny amount when you bounce it as it isn't a 'solid' silver, but it will be plenty good enough for you (mine is for me). In terms of stands, you can spend as...

I actually agree George, it was a bit of a free for all - you drive the car in, grab a spot and then take some photos... The beginning of the day though is spent with the tog from What Car / Autocar, who basically gets the 'example' car, puts it into the middle in the composition he wants...

Cheers for the comments guys, I know what you mean about the white at the bottom left of the Jaguar, the reason being that we didn't add the colour gel to the light in that shot :-( Also, agree on the composition on the mustang shot. It's that kind of thing that you curse when you get back and...

Took a few photos today at an event held by Pistonheads. Really enjoyed it and learnt a lot about continuous lighting shoots. Hope you like the photos, let me know :): Audi R8 Ford Mustang - Pic 1 Ford Mustang - Pic 2 Aston Martin Vantage Jaguar Composite - This is a composite of 8...

That is definately useful, appreciate you letting me know. Cracking shots that I would be more than happy to have in my portfolio! Regards Paul

they are gorgeous images - truly lovely. Crisp and lovely, and very well processed. Were both of these shot in natural light, can you let us (me :)) know how you took them - did you have a reflector etc? Many thanks Paul

Hey Mate, I truly love number 1, yes it's a shame that his hand wasn't in the shot - but his expression and hair (the hair is amazing) far outweigh that negative. I love the dark floor in number 2 and still think it is a cracking shot, but tend to agree with the lack of cushion causing a...
