Took this one on the way in to work this morning and decided to send it in to the regional news and it got featured on there which feels pretty good considering I've not used the camera in a long time!

How do I show the image?

 

[Ay Ay Ron]

Click the share button - The little arrow to the right of the picture (presuming you are in a browser and not the shitty app)

Click the BB code and then select the size you want to display - I tend to go for 800 width on here

Copy the code into this textbox and hit reply.

Done.

Me and the Girlfriend ventured up Pen Y Fan this morning, incredible route. Just a shame the weather was so bad up top as the views would've been outstanding.

Saw a post on fstoppers.com about how to lightpaint cars with the (imo) overly expensive Westcott Icelight and was quite impressed. So I built myself a softbox with cardboard and paper for my LED Lenser P7R and wanted to see whether I can still achieve a good result with this cheap setup. Think it turned out quite well.

Fantastic pic!

When you say softbox and materials, what do you mean? Have you got any pics?

Im only learning but im really enjoying using my camera lately. Here's a few random ones that ive taken that i like :smile:

 

[Ay Ay Ron]

Another one from last night. This time 3 images stacked getting the full car trails. 90 seconds total exposure.

Also trying out a signature logo for when I want to advertise a bit of stuff. Think it looks quite subtle

Took a drive around Snowdonia this morning, mainly scouting for night spots.

Borrowed a friend's filter set today. Mad colour cast but I quite like it.

Nice updates Aaron, some properly nice photos. Just noticed you shoot with the 24-105 L, what's it like? I'm really tempted to treat myself to one.

Cheers, Ben..
It's a decent all round lens tbh especially on the full frame 6d. If I had a crop sensor I'd probably go something a bit wider like the 17-40 f4L but would obviously be sacrificing the zoom range.
I don't use it for much of my night photography as I also use the Samyang 14mm 2.8 and now the Sigma 50mm 1.4 (used to use the Canon 50mm 1.8) but as a day to day lens it's good.

I've got a 7D so I'm wondering if the 24-105 is a good choice, I've looked online and people seem to say they go well together. I have a max budget of £400 though so it would have to be second hand.

Are there any local camera shops that you could try one at, or maybe from lens for hire to see if the focal length will suit?
If you're happy with the focal length you'd get then I'd say get the lens, and it'll be ready if you ever upgrade to full frame.
