Thanks guys :)

Next plan is I've got a off camera cable for the flash coming in a day or two and a diffuser.
Going to get my brother to weld me up some kind of bracket to get the flash in a better position.

Welcome, great first attempts, well done.

It can get confusing but well worth it.

Cheers,
Mark.
