windy days

[Andy Johnson]

So with the wind blowing like a hooley this is the best i could manage over the last few days. I have used my broken speedlight on a bracket directly over the tip of the lens which is diffused with a small softbox. Deffo better than the ring flash. Sorry no id's and the first bee and the flower were taken by my wife.

Super set. To my eye the clarity and colours look especially good in your wife's capture. Was that captured with the same setup?

Great detail and DoF coverage on the fly.

Thanks Nick. My wife was using her own camera 700D with a speedlight and plastic cap diffuser.
