So you’ve seen some incredible star trails, you’ve booked a weekend to get out of the city, and you’re ready to throw your hat into the ring with the best of ’em. Our final image. Nikon D800 – Tamron 24-70mm F/2.8 VC – Gitzo 2540F Tripod. 180 secs @ F/9 […]
Words: Colin Field | Photos: Colin Field and Mike Last Capturing the Colours When it comes to shooting landscapes in Ontario and across Canada, there is no better season than the fall. As leaves change colour, forests light up in a rainbow of reds, yellow and oranges that are incredibly […]
I had a chance to play with the new Metz 52AF-1 at Photokina in Germany. All I can say is WOW! This is probably one of the most interesting flashes I’ve ever played with. The first thing that strikes you is when you turn it around it has a large […]
In the last post I talked about using the TritonFlash in place of a speedlite because of how portable it is relative to how much power it provides. There is one other major advantage a TritonFlash has over a speedlite and that is how you can modify it. I see a lot […]

So your significant other has just pitched the idea… “Why don’t we take the kids to the zoo this Saturday?” You can think of 10,000 places you would rather be. You might even cave and suggest Ikea instead (I can think of no worse place in the world than Ikea […]
Behind the cover shot of the world’s fastest skateboarder. Mischo Erban takes us on a first person view of what it’s like to cruise some pavement at 130 km/h. This is one of Mischo’s runs from Les Éboulements in Quebec. Watch out for those small rocks!
Unlike most battery operated lighting systems the TritonFlash behaves more like a monoblock head rather than a pack system. This means that when you plug in each head into the battery the controls for output are on the head itself not on the battery. I prefer this method because I […]
When I first had a chance to get my hands on a Photoflex TritonFlash I was pretty excited because I like shooting outdoors and that had always been a challenge due to the limited power and battery capacity of speedlites. Whenever you’re shooting with speedlites many times you’ll find that […]
