thank you Neil for all the education in your books, Craftsy videos, and Tangents blog. i have learned so much from you. i had the opportunity to shoot a wedding recently and was able to use some of that education. i still have a long way to go. it is one thing to read it, even understand it, and another thing to use that knowledge in a timely way like at a wedding under time pressure. it was so great to be able to use some of that education on Shari and Tags special day.
i used bounce flash with a spinlight 360 for the interior shots. in reviewing my photos afterwards i realized i should not have used the high fstop and i could have used less DOF and consequently lower ISO. i had been using the high fstop for the macro ring shots just before. the outside shots during the wedding i used a little fill flash a couple of stops under the ambient exposure. it rained most of the day until just before the wedding. then just started lightly raining at the end of the ceremony so we had to shoot the family pictures in a less desirable location.
thanks again.

i volunteer for Angel City Derby Girls. it has been a great learning thing for me. i can set up my lights around the track. it is a lot faster action than a wedding and no pressure as i am just a volunteer.
Verrrry nice pics mate.
