I'm not surprised he likes it. Nice effort and great use of the fisheye. I like the people wandering past in the background contrasted against the effort, but it'd be better if someone could chop down those 2 trees behind him Wink

Also, the flash looks a tiny bit overdone on my monitor. It probably doesn't help that most UK riders have really pasty skin which reflects things a bit much. Did you use straight forward TTL rather than TTL-BL? I've heard that a good way of lightening things without making it look like flash is used is to use TTL and FEV -2.0 so that it only lightens the shadows. I'm being picky though. Nice work lass.

Hiya thanks for the comments...


the flash was manual only, and ghetto as Compton:




And I don't think chopping down trees on Southbank is allowed!

Cheers! Laughing
