    I had the chance to go out and practice some photography skills last night in Idaho up Bogus Basin rd with a buddy of mine. He has opened up my eyes to the use of external lighting!

    Photos from his camera will be rolling in over the weekend.

    Here is one that I snapped as a teaser for more to come lol

    I've got a Canon 5D mk2 with a few L series lenses. No external lighting of any kind yet though.

    You're too kind lol this one was actually all natural sunset lighting. I've never used any flash type setups which is what I was able to watch and experiment with - those photos coming as soon as I have time behind my desk. Driving 15 hours to pick up my CMI trailer :D

    It really has changed quite a bit looking back huh?! I still have a few more things I want to get which will change the appearance slightly again lol but overall I am very very happy with where it's at right now.

    I'm picking up the trailer in like 4 hours!!

    I dropped in into the bed for the long drive back home from WA to UT. Over 15 hours. So because I wasn't going to be using it anymore on the trip I figured I would save a little fuel economy and not have the wind blockage.
