Ideas, Ideas!!

YouTube is definitely my new best mate. Watching a lot of these videos on photography is really really making my creative juices flowing! Since getting my strobe light (Canon 430EXii) I've been having all sorts of ideas for shoots. Just a couple I really want to do at the moment is I want to head to a skatepark (the one here is most difinetely too small and most importantly too dead, so any help will be greatly appreciated ; ) ) and get some photos of people getting big air, grinds etc. etc. Might head to somewhere on my next days off!! Should make a giggle trying to get some people I don't know to bust some moves for me.....

Thanks to Mr. eBay I have purchased an umbrella adapter for my lightstands so want to head off into a field with tall grass and have a shoot in there! Should be good : )

In other news my week off work has sadly come to an end. As from 6pm tomorrow night I officially have no life again :( back to long hours and rediculously shitty pay! Me and Becs (the better half) have started shopping for bits and bobs for when we finally move in together. Spent the day at Ikea on Saturday. I could spend thousands there. No shit!! Every time we went down a new aisle I wanted something else!! Computer desks, sofas, tables, wardrobes, woks (don't ask. It was only £2.44 ain't going to complain about that!) I'm pretty sure she wanted to strangle me by the time we were ready to leave. So no surprises now I'm going to say were going again in a couple of weeks!!

So apart from that it's been a pretty uneventful couple of weeks. One of my good mates, Dylan, has just joined this blogger lark so I think he deserves a shout out!! Check him out at http://welshboon.blogspot.com will give you a bit of a giggle!!!

Just before I leave, within the next couple of weeks I'll be posting a couple of tutorials on 1. How to use the speedlites with a shoot through umbrella and will show the different effects shooting with and without the umbrella has. And 2. Will show you how to make a DIY light box for less than £5

Something for you to look forward to!

Adios people!
