Hi Ole,

My faves too. I use a clear plastic food bag over my flash heads or Speedlights when it is raining and the Bron pack has it’s own waterproof jacket.

It’s only water

Hi Richie,

I used a Mobil head from about 15ft to the left of the couple and one about 15ft to the right of the couple. Some people call this lighting style ‘butterfly lighting’. I needed one flash extension lead to enable both heads to use the same Mobil pack. I used a 70% – 30% ratio for the flash power.

I hope this helps, Damien.

Damien,

Thank you for -

I have studied them all, learnt a lot and learn more each time I re-view them.

Looking forward to 22nd June.
