Had an overcast day the other day so spent most of my time taking natural light shots with my Tamron 90 lens.

Thanks Frank,
Yes handheld although I would have been using my pole for some of them.

Wonderful shots, Brian. Your light is splendid. I must try without flash when conditions are favourable but we seem to swing from extremely bright to terribly dark, dull and windy whenever the opportunity strikes to shoot...

Aah, 600D didn't show up in your rig-signature. So, anyway, it's a crop camera. I like to see good macro's out of crops, makes me not to hurry for a full frame :3

Very nice set. The natural light gives them a really nice look.


Not sure why, but call me JJ.
I used to hate math but then I realised decimals have a point.
