That isridiculouslycool!!! Love the shot. Takes a lot ofca honesto do that with your camera...good thing that tripod is sturdy and secure.

Amazing shot Sean! I really like the colors of car and the lamps around, they match perfectly and make it very pleasant to watch, what a great way to use a ultra wide angle!

You know, I wasn't quite sure when I started looking at the mount just after opening the box. However, I took it outside and attached my backup camera (XTi) and it felt pretty solid. Then I mounted my 50D once nightfall came and did the setup for real. I was still really nervous about driving while my camera was perched on the corner of my hood. I was driving through Tennessee Technological University (where I graduated from) where the speed limit is 15 miles per hour. I did not exceed the speed limit.

I think this is the perfect use for my wide angle lens. I've been loving it ever since I got it, but now it's just that much more useful to me. I can't imagine how many kids will want their senior portraits taken like this... ;-)

A couple of fav's from the Mark Wallace PW Meetup Tour


(All shots using 5dmkII 24-105 f/4L, Pocket Wizard FlexTT5 and MiniTT1 TTL+one Light)

[Sean Setters]

Really like this one. Lighting, emotion, and composition all work well together.

Hey everyone,

Normally I can't contribute to thisthread because I do a lot of glamour shots that aren't nude but just might be a little to risque for the group and I'd rather not take the chancebut here area coupleshots from a shoot I did on Friday...

Great shots Fred. Is that a three light setup (large softbox right, striplight behind left, and light on background)?
