My VRrrrrrr had a great work out this weekend, we had back to back events, even shooting in the rain :-)
An image that caught my eye...I love the light.

Yeah that's a great image. I assume it wasn't posed and you just saw the moment and grabbed it, well done.

I think the colour on her arm is not right, more purple to me, or it's just my eyes.

No Birddog, not your eyes...

Her arm looks like it is bruised :shock:

Maybe a bit of PS should fix that :wink:

Have not tried....not a flash guy. Only use flash if I really have too.

Depend on the lighting, flash with diffuser and to the right angle of the flash, it will apply with a good result and composition.

I didn't use flash a lot but have to, in some circumstances.

Then bounced flash with diffuser needed.

Flash can work quite well if you don't over do it. Just enough to provide a bit of boost to the light your working with. I think a bit in this instance would of helped.

What is flash? :wink:


True :) I am an available light guy......but I have been loving the D70+ Sb800 combo for fill in backlight situations

Yes nice light, but better is the natural pose of the subject!

IMHO this should be in a photography textbook next to the title of Candid!

Vince,

I really like your wedding photos. I like the first of these two posted here.

Incidently, another 6 degrees of seperation thing here. At work my girlfriend sits next to the maiden of honour of the wedding you photographed last week. She showed her some of the shots you took and when she came home she said

"They have some gorgeous photographs, taken by someone called Vin...."

"Vincent Lai" I said in a flash

"That's him, they're brilliant"

Small world mate.
