Two of my friends from the running club, Sally and Helle, asked me to do an action shoot for them. This is one of the results. We're going to try and submit this to Runners World magazine for inclusion int heir monthly "Rave Run" feature.
Strobist info. Bare 580EXII @ 1/2 power camera right just out of shot set to wide angle and triggered with Cactus V4's.
The Light was failing rapidly so to balance sky and get a decent shutter speed I had to ramp the ISO up to 800 and do some noise reduction later.
They've got 17 shots to choose from (this is my fave) so I've not done any post processing other than raw conversion until I hear back from them.
A great learning experience... including don;t shoot with a polarising filter on as a 2 stop reduction sucks up the power of small strobes.
A little part of the web for me to talk about Photography, what I'm up to, share experiments, recent shots, hints and tips. To share my (limited) experience with others and to gain further skills myself.

Heavily Textured Bluebell
I've not posted much recently but have been playing with textrues... with what I think is a great result.
I'm thinking about having this printed out onto a canvas to grace our hallway.

Spelbound Win Britain's Got Talent
The Gymnastics group, "Spelbound" have won, in spectacular fashion, the Britains Got Talent TV show.
I feel very privileged to have seen some of these performances in the groups Christmas display before they "hit the big time" and acheived countrywide recognition, through the auditions, the live semi an then the final itself.
As a result of their success my Flickr stream, with a set of photos documenting their Christmas display, has got lots of hits due to the Spelbound tags.
You can see their winning performance from Britiains got talent below, it is truly amazing !!
