Overhead Cabin,

Just posted this one on flickr, no time to process the other stuff from monday & tuesday’s trip to the uk but this one I liked very much!
I was in the airplane experimenting with white balance settings and found this view of the roof to be quite interesting to shoot. So I know have it in a range of different colors. :)

edit: it made flickr explore! check it out here!

I have two Canon 540EZ’s which have an issue with low battery power. If the batteries aren’t fully charged, the flashes will not sync under 1/30th. At least not with the cactus remotes. To bypass this problem and in addition get a shorter recycle time for the flashes I decided to switch to DIY external battery packs. These are so called Lead Acid batteries or SLA’s with a voltage of 6 Volt. I got mine at a model building shop, I decided to go for the 3 Amps version which is still pretty big and heavy but not too big and heavy in my opinion. 3 Amps should last quite a while. It uses wooden dummy penlites so you can always use normal penlites if you want. I think they’ll come in handy at the dutch strobist meet in march. Check out the pictures to see how I did all this.

Hey everyone! Happy new year to start this post with off course!
This year I had hoped to shoot some fireworks but again, same as last year and the year before… it was foggy :( Still got some funky shots though but didn’t take much time to go out and shoot, just shot through the window. Couple of days before Christmas we had a little snow, I also included some of the shots I took at work and from my roof.
2007 brought various things for me,
