20091011 - One of these Days

One of these days I'm actually going to go out and take a photo using the new tripod!

Today I ironed ALL my shirts, well, all but two - which I threw out as they were decidedly manky! After that I couldn't be bothered heading out sunset hunting, instead I juggled with flash-guns and pieces of card - it's not easy shooting a black camera on a black tripod against a black card!

Canon EOS 5D ,Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 Macro USM
1/200s f/11.0 at 100.0mm iso100 full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto

You still managed a great job! That looks, er, really professional!

Golly gosh...that's very impressive! The ironing that is...well done, that man.
The tripod looks like a very serious piece of kit...and the photo...perfect.

So did you hand hold this one, or use the old tripod?
Brilliant shot for black on black

I actually used my tripod on holiday , mind you it weighs a ton so its a good job I didn't have to lug it far.... this is great , looks like a pro advertising shot !

I've just bought a new flashgun and and STE2. Haven't had a chance to play yet. But I have sent off for a Lee Gel Swatch pack to use on it - do you have one of those? Fab shot - I need flash lessons from you ;o)

My iron was looking decidedly manky so threw it away.

Nice sexy tripod :)

Looks impressive - and the ironing also sounds impressive - I managed to iron two shirts and threw
the rest back in the basket.

Manfrotto could now employ you to prepare a catalogue for them!

Thoughtfully lit. This image is well worth the juggling. Good commentary too.
