For me the relationship between light and darkness is a fascinating one. They are equal opposites and yet when brought together they create visual masterpieces. Often we don’t see the value in darkness, dismissing it as an underexposed attempt without really taking in it’s appeal. This is quite a contradiction in terms of technique from [...]
One of the biggest problems that a strobist will face when lighting a subject is coverage of light. When you consider the size of the head of a speedlight vs. your standard run of the mill monobloc its easy to see why we strobists finally succumb to large lights.

shoefly, originally uploaded by Red Sky Photography. Flying shoes + poor aims = PAIN. A brand shot for a local shoe company. I decided to try something different. We threw up some shoes and I fired off a couple of shots…..the lights took multiple clobberings as did the folks throwing them. Good clean fun! Laura [...]

I was introduced to Michael through his father Alec at a sporting event a while back and I very quickly realised what separates your average joe (me) from achieving his [...]
