I’ve been contemplating of whether to buy the Canon wireless triggerr or another flash, probably another 430 ex, and the choice was pretty simple at that time, and that’s to purchase another 430 ex, considering that the price diff is less than 200 riyals.

It’s been an awfully long day for me, 4 am an I’m still up, with all the clattering and banging just outside my window (another building is being tore down) sleep just can’t seem to engulf me within its confines.

I’m starting to get addicted on this strobist thing, just purchased a new flash, the Canon 580 ex ii, and this sure made strobing easier since i can trigger my 430 ex offcam now. Anyway, I’m thinking of buying another 430 ex or maybe a flash commander, but I’m leaning towards the 430 ex since [...]

Shooting up high

Just had an opportuniy to shoot at the 36th floor of Al Bidda Tower, which, by the way, is still under under construction, and which, thanks to our good friend tabs who is the structural engineer of the place, we were able to shoot from. Whew! I dont make sense. Hehehe.
It was a chance of a [...]
