to watch as every time I was ready to go with the timing of the flash
and throttle pull my flash setup would not fire. climbing through the sand when your soaked to the bone in sweat and then trying to handle your camera gear is tough. Used my 5D2, 100 IS macro lens, 580ex on a light stand with a small white umbrella.

Very well done Bryan!!! You really got some awesome toys for the big boys! Work has been eating me up and all I can do is read posts. I'm really looking forward for creative photography time.


I really like the way used the environment here but I found the surrounding sand too smooth. Nonetheless, I still love the shot! I can just imagine you working on this and the frustration you were having on the tire sand-kicking thing.


Cheers!
