Extreme boredom set in this afternoon so...out with the camera and just play around and explore the light and the colours.

Hi Matt,
your last shot (war dogs) certainly achieves one of photography's main aims to get the viewer to linger over the photo, I did this but only to try and figure out why you would want to chop the heads off. I still can't figure it out. :?

OK

In that case you should have cut them vertically and you would have got a tryptic. :wink: :D

Define available light? Might I have used non-available light? :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

But to answer your question.....I used natural light that was available....(Or is that available light that was natural). AAhhh! This hurts my head!

What if it was shot at night? or with photofloods?

So, what was that you said you were clarifying? :)
