*Warning* If you don´t like people bragging about their new toys, ignore this thread *Warning*
Am going to be concentrating on working on my studio lighting this year so yesterday I bought a couple more monolights, a 750ws Bowens set so now I have 4 bowens monolights I can use on location and outdoors + access to 5 more at the stuido I use.
I then just now ordered a big 184x137cm softbox, a 1.5m octobox and two striplight softboxes (140x40cm) along with some other minor stuff like honeycomb grids and gel filter holders.
Gonna kick yarr asses reeeeeeeeeal soon!

i don't know how you are going to improve your already impressive body of work, but this looks like a promising way! I can't wait to see what you come up with. :) |

Not so fast, dude. I picked up some striplights and gels over Christmas, too. ;-P |

Puhleeeeeeeeeeeze, compared to the top photographers in the world today I am nothing more than a piece of snot on their used tissue so I hopefully have loads of room to improve. That´s why I love this thing called photography, you can always get better, I can´t even imagine myself having learned more than a fraction of it before I die at the early age of 129. |

I see a tagline for your siggy and a floating text quote for your next podcast interview. ;-) |

I got some Catus (ebay) remote flash triggers!!! I'm having fun with them, and starting to try to get more into lighting. :-)

I got some lights and remote shutter release recently and have also been playing with lighting, but recently I have attained a strong interest in chicken catapulting. I'll need to dig out my safety goggles though. |

There really should be a warning on those chicken catapults, or at least a minimum IQ requirement. Having no depth perception is a bitch. I keep pouring beer down my shirt.

Hmm, you should try to turn the beers around 180° then and pour the beers down model´s shirts instead of your own, that will lead to a lot more nude photoshoots. I speak from experience here people :) |

Nice lights - even nicer you have the room for octaboxes and the like. Santa didn't bring me a bigger studio :(
If UPS can get their crap together and deliver my new toys! Supposed to be here today, but there as an 'exception', whatever that is,and they should arrive monday:
TC80R timer remote control, Lensbaby 3G, extension tubes, and a 135 2.8 soft focus lens.
I have to get back to the guy with the used 50 1.2 lens - then I'm done for a while on new toys! Off to earn some money first!
