But still... I'm quite happy with how this frame looks.https://photorebel.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/img_5210-edit.jpgIMG_5210-EditI love the door in this frame! Enhanced it during post production.https://photorebel.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/img_5201.jpgIMG_5201Sarah was great to work with and was she was quite patient while I tried new lighting techniques and camera angles.https://photorebel.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/img_5197.jpgIMG_5197I like the blue/orange colour combination of this frame.https://photorebel.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/img_5192.jpgIMG_5192Okay, now I'm getting quite excited with this wall and using a combination of colour correction and colour effect gels on the flashes together with a colour temperature adjustment on the camera.https://photorebel.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/img_5088.jpgIMG_5088After we were finished with the stairs and surrounding garden features, it was time to move onto new locations. https://photorebel.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/img_4913.jpgIMG_4913I took a while to find a pose that worked for this water well garden feature.2010-07-01T11:54:31+00:00monthlyhttps://photorebel.co.uk/2010/06/18/newtown-carnival/https://photorebel.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/img_2369.jpgIMG_2369Later during the ceremony I caught this wonderful frame.https://photorebel.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/img_2352.jpgIMG_2352The perfect moment to use flash in very bright sunlight.https://photorebel.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/img_2335.jpgIMG_2335I love the sun glasses!https://photorebel.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/img_2331.jpgIMG_2331If only all pirates looked this good! ;-)https://photorebel.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/img_2287.jpgIMG_2287Carnival almost at an end...https://photorebel.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/img_2278.jpgIMG_2278https://photorebel.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/img_2242.jpgIMG_2242Can't remember how many open trailer trucks passed through...https://photorebel.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/img_2232.jpgIMG_2232Everybody seemed to be having a great time...https://photorebel.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/img_2221.jpgIMG_2221I'm just having so much fun at this point. You really feel great when you know instantly how this type of images is going to look afterwards during post-production!https://photorebel.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/img_2179.jpgIMG_2179This is one of my favourite frames of the day.2010-06-18T12:33:37+00:00monthlyhttps://photorebel.co.uk/2010/06/10/the-hoedown/https://photorebel.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/img_1422.jpgIMG_1422There's something I like about this frame...https://photorebel.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/img_1683.jpgIMG_1683This was taken around 3am in the morning.

I really like the way is holding Sam.https://photorebel.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/img_1109.jpgIMG_1109I love Sam's expression. Especially in the colour version in the next post.https://photorebel.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/img_1108.jpgIMG_1108A close-up of the previous image. The kick light you see on Sam's hair was provided by a flash.https://photorebel.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/img_1106.jpgIMG_1106I like Bas's expression in this frame.https://photorebel.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/img_1083.jpgIMG_1083Moving on to another location. Sam and Bas were sitting on some stairs which you can just see in shot.https://photorebel.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/img_1060.jpgIMG_1060Another angle of the previous image.https://photorebel.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/img_1059.jpgIMG_1059Something a bit alternative. Same location as the above image.https://photorebel.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/img_1048.jpgIMG_1048I took a few moments to explore other angles and I just like this image. I like that the bicycles are in the frame also.https://photorebel.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/img_1021.jpgIMG_1021I like the contrast the wall provides in the framing of this image. Although it probably separates the couple as opposed to showing togetherness.2010-05-24T19:24:16+00:00monthlyhttps://photorebel.co.uk/2010/05/22/passion-in-amsterdam-%e2%80%93-colour/https://photorebel.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/mout.jpgmoutThe group at the end of the day...https://photorebel.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/ampash2-011.jpgampash2-011This was one of those random moments when a resident across the street where we were shooting took this frame with his camera. He printed it out and came over surprise us with it! You can see me near the mini and Damien talking to Graham Law while he's taking a frame.https://photorebel.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/img_1199.jpgIMG_1199We used Damien's Orbis Ring Flash to create this frame. The last frame of the day.https://photorebel.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/img_1177.jpgIMG_1177We made this normal scene look like it might have been taken in the Mediterranean. https://photorebel.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/img_1148.jpgIMG_1148I stole this framing idea from Damien... Where the framing is so bad that's its almost good again.https://photorebel.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/img_1141.jpgIMG_1141Another frame I like as the window adds a little something...https://photorebel.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/img_1135.jpgIMG_1135Same wall made to look like a gritty street scene!https://photorebel.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/img_1119.jpgIMG_1119A simple wall and a straight forward pose.https://photorebel.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/img_1113.jpgIMG_1113I really love this frame!

Taken at F2.8, 50/sec, ISO800, 200mm. Even in a pub environment, there's plenty of opportunity to take shots without flash.https://photorebel.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/img_8589.jpgAt birthday partyEven at these slow shutter speeds and ISO 800, the detail and sharpness is good.https://photorebel.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/img_6554.jpgKev and JaneAgain... same technique works for groups! This was taken around xmas time...https://photorebel.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/img_6016.jpgGirls in ExchangeYip... uses the usual formula... shutter was 25/sec at 200mm.https://photorebel.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/img_4534-edit.jpgGemma HindmarchThis is Gemma Hindmarch. My buddy Graham placed the flash on a small shelf and pointed the flash upwards so the light ran up the wall and the top of the ceiling. This created a large light source around 8-10 feet away and I used my remote trigger (ST-E2). Picture taken at 20/sec at 200mm.https://photorebel.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/img_4505-edit.jpgCaroline with 2 point lightingAnother of the same girl, except my buddy Graham is holding a flash gun with an optical slave hotshoe behind the singer. You can see the effect of the 2nd light source... same setting as the previous shot.https://photorebel.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/img_4502-edit.jpgCaroline with GuitarSame singer, but caught her practicing.
