    Another excellent set Brian. I take it these are all natural light or excellently diffused flash?

    I have to say when I post my shots of Hovers, they pale in comparison to yours but I know with time and practice.. one day, I might get there. As I've said before, you really are an inspiration to us all.

    Thanks Ian.

    These are flash shots but at ISO400 to get a bit more natural light in.

    If I post it, please tell me how to make it better. My fragile ego can take it.
