Christmas & New Year

It's been a good one! I'm now the proud owner of a Canon 600D, Coop 3.0, and although I haven't had the chance to properly shoot with it yet, I took it out yesterday evening to a new years party just to give it a shot. The video is pretty great, and i'm really excited to start shooting in motion as well as just taking photos.

Anywho, here are a few photos I took today whilst messing around with my tripod and remote timer.

And a few from new years! Fire poi is scary but pretty awesome (and difficult) to shoot.

And finally, my costume for new years (because hey, why not end the year with fancy dress?) - excuse the faces, i'm a photographer, not a model :P

Happy new year folks!

New camera on the way!

So I finally got around to ordering an upgrade the other day; i'm saying goodbye to my trusty Canon 450D and hello to the Canon 600D. Not a major jump, because I really can't justify (or afford!) anything crazy up market, but I wanted something a little more updated anyway, and i'm now interested in giving video a shot, and this camera allows that, so i'm really excited to see what thats like!

Thats all for now folks, i'll update with some photos once it's arrived. In the meantime, have a bit of a rubbish self portrait that I took whilst testing out my new remote timer. Thankfully, I now also have a tripod - this was taken with the camera balancing on the sofa, not the most ideal of set ups. Merry christmas everyone!
