Today, I spent mostly editing images. I have a Monday deadline for a session I did earlier in the week and a modeling session tomorrow afternoon. All this made it nice to get out of the house with some awesome weather.

My flight instructor is also getting more heavily into amateur photography so I offered to show him a few tricks on a photo walk. Again, the weather was awesome so we headed out. The wife got off work and met up with us (she's flown with me so they know each other).

After bitching about how the airplane we fly has been down for maintenance for the last 6 weeks, I volunteered him as a human light stand to show him some strobist stuff. Unfortunately, all my diffusers and lightstands were a pretty far walk from where we were. Humans work best anyway don't they? It's also fun to find something to naturally diffuse your flashes. Working with what you have sometimes makes for a cool shot.
