At a recent shoot with Sammie B I went back to basics a little and shot a plain lightpainted nude. I have some Polaroids from that shoot to that I really should scan at some point too.

On Saturday night I took my Canon 5D out to the Falls of Clyde with McInnes to do some more night shooting. We had made the same trip (in the dark) the the previous weekend, but as I had only my 5×4 with me the best I managed to do was fall down a hole while attempting to lightpaint a ruin. This time out I shot the falls instead, but managed not to fall in.

Last Sunday I dug out my big torches and went over to Lanark to do some night shooting with McInnes. I discovered that my DIY radio shutter release can trigger my 5D from further away than I can hear, so I’m going to have to put an LED to the thing so that I can tell that the shutter has really opened. Had great fun running around in the dark, lighting trees and bridges with the 3.5 million candle-power light.
