I've been really inspired by Rosie Hardys photostream recently and want to start giving SPs a go. My camera remote is on order already and I'm thinking up some ideas to get working on.

Today with some help from LemonFire and my parents (thank you!!!) we managed to achieve this in a corn field by my house. I wish I'd taken a set up shot of this with LemonFire and my mum both up a step ladder - one with a camera and the other with a watering can! haha

Strobist: x2 430ex's bare and high on camera right about 1m apart for very soft rim and to pick out the water/rain.

Please let me know what you think. xxx

Based loosely on the 'Beauty and the Geek' TV show, Kris and I thought we'd have some fun showing off our "beauty" and "geek" side and created this cheeky dyptych.

Strobist:
580EX through white umbrella behind camera for fill
x2 430EX's either side of us for rim.

I bought this tshirt months ago with thoughts of doing a SP - I think it turned out better than I expected, what do you think?

Thank you to Kris for pressing the button and helping me.

Earlier in the week Charley discovered this amazing poppy field when she was out walking with her Mum and told me I needed to come and see it.

We've had our fingers crossed since then that it wouldn't rain and finally tonight we got the chance to go and shoot there.
