Group f11
In 2008 three photographers, starting out on their careers, decided to keep in contact through a blog page in which they could share ideas, post images and ask each other advice. This has since mutated into a web space where those photographers still meet, but so too do their students and other like-minded photographers.

November's theme and a macro post
Apologies for the long delay in getting this month's theme out. Hopefully November will have more posts than last month. To make it easy, since it's so late, the theme is water for November. Make it slow, freeze the action, do it underwater...whatever floats your boat really.
for the interim here's a shot from the other day that I'm quite chuffed with. I found these guys hanging onto a pair dying twigs in Pongola. As the wind was blowing we were able to move them in away from the wind and use a set up of three flashguns (1 diffused with a large bounce panel and the other two dialed right down to just add fill). Jackie held one fill light while her dad held the other. The main source was attached via an arm to the camera. What do you think? Any suggestions for PS?

Hi E,
This is a cracking shot, nothing really to say other than to gush over it - great technique, wonderful compostion and pin sharp. I wish it was one of mine!
Can you post shutter speed etc.
Neil.
Ummm, shutter speed was 1/80 sec @ f11 (haha). ISO set to 100. Primary flash was set to manual 1/4 power, left fill was set to 1/8 power and bottom fill which also lit the background somewhat was set to 1/16
I have another which is very 'Neilish' which I'll post in a bit
