    When you come to a door... walk through it.
    If it's locked... find an open window.

    Do you really think that much? I must be doing something wrong. For the most part I just go out and play. :D

    Personally, I really like #2, it is packed with such emotion....
    #1 is funny though, I think we've all felt that way!

    In #1, you have the book of one of my favorite photographers of all time, Joe McNally, the master of flash. Both are nice images, but I have a problem with some blown highlights in both of them. If I were to pick one out of the two, I would go with #2.

    Both good images! #1 is fun and #2 is strong.

    I think I would choose #2. The hands are just a bit too bright for me, but otherwise great work with it.

    Thanks everyone. The best part about #1 is I got to use all 5 speedlights, 2 umbrellas, small speedlight softbox, 1/4 " grid, 3 light stands, blue gels, corded remote, my new cactus v4 remote triggers, a pencil, AND Sharpies.

    How much fun can a person have in one day!:D

    He's amazing isn't he? I really enjoyed the book. His stuff, Strobist, and DGrin are easing my fears of lighting.

    No, but have kind of been keeping an eye on his website. One of these days I'm going.

    You definitely should. I did last week (Nov 6) in Los Angeles Convention Center. Great experience. The guy is hilarious too.
