Buono Estente,

I've rented a flash this weekend for a wedding. Decided to do some other stuff with it and took some photos of my bicycle, Beryl ... I didn't break the habit of a lifetime and actually clean her though, the years of dirt from trips off-road and through rain storms are part of her character.

Flash has been bounced off either walls or ceiling ...

First time using flash like this so some thoughts welcome if there's anything to be done differently - obviously off camera but it was just a rental job so it's on the hotshoe.

Boutros, Boutros-Ghali,

Owain.

I think they came out well. They are all nicely exposed.

Meaty flat pedals for a road bike.

Cheers. The aim was for a nice exposure, ideally slightly selectively but I only really got that on a couple of these ...

Pedals were purchased to replace the plastic ones she was shipped with, but I've never had spare cash for cycling specific shoes so I just got some other flat ones, they happened to be intended for a BMX ...
