This is my 4 year old son Dan. He just ambled into the studio the other day as I was messing about tidying up and he zeroed in on some of the props from the Harry Lee shoot, the headphones and microphone and kicked off the performance of his lifetime with the theme from Scooby Doo. I grabbed the camera, flash and Orbis Ringflash adapter and quickly set the flash to ETTL, the camera at 400 ISO and Av priority at F/4. I kept my finger on the trigger and loosed off about 30 rounds frames, in the hope that the noise from the shutter would kill overpower the "unbelievable" vocal that was being emitted. The three frames above made a nice present for Granny and Grandad printed in tryptich. While the website and blogs promise "shadowless" pictures, as you can see there is a slight shadow cast, but it is soft and really unobtrusive. The light is a little flat but that may be just down to my inexperience, I'll experiment a bit more and post more pictures as they come along ...
