Hi all. I found "fotocomunity" by accident and I'm very glad I did! There are some awesome pictures on the site, I can only hope mine "make the grade". Well, nothing ventured, nothing gained as they say.
I live in Lincoln, England, and enjoy photography as a serious hobby. Although I don't have too much time to indulge. This state MUST be remedied!!
Please feel free to comment on anything I post. I only ask that you are not too harsh! Ha! Ha!
I also have a website that is a work in progress and any comments about that are welcomed also.
Regards,
Steve.
My "tools" consist of the following:-
Fuji S5 Pro.
Sigma 150-500mm zoom lens.
Sigma 70mm Macro lens.
Nikon 18-70mm zoom lens.
Nikon SB800 Flash.
Giottos Mono Pod.
Giottos Carbon Fibre Tripod with MH1300 Pro Ball Head.
Various filters, (although I only tend to use a Polarizer).
All the above, and more!, are carried around in or on a Kata 3n1 Back Pack.

My wife again :) They are great tights! The background is lit with a couple of dish reflectors with honeycombe grids on to give the pools of light, then burned in at the edges in PS.
I was really pleased with this, lit with a Canon speedlight to camera left, and a bit of fill from the right. A very relaxed shoot one evening in Switzerland Dave

Hi Steve, thanks, I loved the pose :)
We fooled around with a few of these poses, feline is a good word for them :), it's a pale grey colorama background, but I had to stretch it a bit in PS It does work rather well :) the fill comes from a mirror on a cabinet to the left of shot, lucky eh? The good old days of film eh? I've been digi for 9 years now, just add a bit of noise, seems to work well. Glad you like the legs - it's my wife :)) Dave.

Thanks again Steve, these tights did look great on her :)
I always enjoy lighting and shooting bodyscapes, the chain and the oil & water just add a little. Dave.

Thanks, and yeah, you could be right :)

Thanks, we used the corner room light, hence the warm colour. My wife is really quite shy :))

Hi Steve, she did look great! Yep, she's got it all :)) Glad you like the shot.

Thanks Steve, she was stood in front of a large softbox, with a small softbox to camera right.
I was pleased with the symmetry. I think I removed all the offending loose ends :) The colours are just fabulous, and yes, it looks as though she is! Dave.
IHi Steve. I agreed with Leo I really need to get my act together or otherwise face the bosses of fotocommunity and be repremanded for this misdemeanour.
Greetings John.

Hi Steve,
Yes you are right, they didn't last long but I did save 3 for the morning for breakfast!
My daughter cut half the lid off the box, I think she was making it into a time machine. Like they do!
