Now I am looking forward to blowing the dust off my strobes and getting stuck into Lighting 102. Listening and observing is only part of the story with learning a skill like this, you learn best when you listen, observe, do and teach. I'll be doing L102 and "teaching" right here. You have been warned ;)

Yesterday I had the pleasure of meeting The Strobist. Myself and 30 or so other photography geeks got to rub shoulders as we learned from the master of off camera flash.

I am still processing all the photography lighting nuggets David hurled at us in a torrent but the stuff that stuck to my grey matter is already spawning a hundred different lighting ideas. Of course it has also inspired me to get myself further into debt for gear I “must” now purchase.

If you get the opportunity to attend one of Davids seminars, do so. Even if you have to sell your tv, pet or family member.
