Cheers - Phil ;)

I know! You'd think he had a life and job or something "better" to do with his time than furnishing us with pictures. Disgraceful....  :Ph

I'll plead crap weather, cloudy and/or rain... ;)

Forecast is better for Sunday, I might take pictures of the first English army then :-w

I had a sneaky feeling it was going to be the weather that put a spoke in the wheel.

Looking forward to seeing them , Paul. :)

The weather was much better than forecast and held until mid-afternoon when the sun was in the right place for photography :)
The cloud arrived half an hour after I took the pictures #:-S

Absolutely stunning. The detailing across the livery and the bombard are fantastic. Well done that man.

Superb, as always, Paul. :-bd

I'm struggling to figure out how you're using 'natural light'.....So you don't get any shadows. (Or next to b*gger all)  8-} 8-} 8-}.....You can't be that close to the equator

Cheers - Phil :-\

Over 41 degrees away from the equator, I am using indirect natural light.

The models are in the corner of the house with large windows on both walls and the sun 'at the corner'.

Ah....Now I get it. :)

I have to admit, because of what you've said about 'the weather', I had it in (what passes for) my mind, that you were taking the shots on a table 'outside'.
The 'lighting' works superbly. :-bd
