Damn, thats a rubbish name for a title…  Anyway I was out on Compton beach last week, and after a lack of any decent photos I went back to shooting some close-up-water-action shots, which means getting as close to the water as possible. Some people may balk at the idea of having expensive electronics inches away from the briney blue, but I am not one of them. Yes,  I did get a little too close on more than one occasion, and my camera did get a little dunked, but it was only for a second and it all still works. Good old Nikon Sealing :-)

In other news,  I decided to put my GCSE Electronics to use and build myself a power pack for my Flashes.  Results to come as I’m trying to organise two more shoots before I head back to uni next week, as well as make a half decent start on our next project…

I’ve been rather slack on the updates recently as I’ve had other things that have eaten into my christmas plans, so I havn’t taken nearly enough photos recently. Luckily today I was down the beach just as the light got good and took a few photos of the tiny but fairly clean, 2-3ft break… nothing outstanding, but it was nice to finaly take some photos.

Back to B-Town tomorrow for the start of the new term… woo.

D200, 100-300mm, er… light… water…

Plans for the new year include taking some decent photos, getting new site up and running and all that. I have a few projects in the pipeline, hopefully I can get at least two of them done in the coming months.

Heres to 2009…
