    I said cars have eyes, the Citroen DS has cross-eyes.
    The inner headlamps steer with the wheels.

    Nicely done, I suppose product photos are a bit like portraiture with the control of lighting and background that you need for a shot like this.

    P.S. we missed you today.

    EXACTLY !

    You created your own background.
    You used bounce flash.
    You were in control

    Re: September Photo Project: The Eyes have it

    Only a snapshot with the LZ5, no DSLRs were hurt taking this

    I spotted a small dapple of light, and interrupted Mike.
    "Up a bit, right, a bit, left a bit, down a little."
    Finally I got his head in the right place to put the highlight on his eyes.

    But did it work?
    Alison?
    If you'd been there you could have told me on the spot.

    That's actually very good Paul. Were you having a discussion about me while you were taking this shot? I can hear you now, "If Ali were here..." LOL. Bless ya!
    The catchlights and clarity in the eyes are superb!
    Am I correct in assuming you weren't using your 50mm?

    It stayed in my bag the whole day (guilty look).
    I had the 10-22 on the 20D for wide angle, 24-70 on the 1DSII, 100-400 on the 1DIIN, and the Panasonic in my pocket.
    With all those DSLRs, I picked up the Panasonic for this !

    Re: September Photo Project: The Eyes have it

    I found a cat in my shed, so, I couldn't resist taking a picture of it and having some fun with some selective colouring in photoshop.
    And before anyone asks...it was taken with my 350D and my 17-40mm F/4 L lens, (before I got my 40D).

    I nearly forgot to add an image to project this month. Here are a pair of Texas eyes that won my heart this month. Meet Josh on his first birthday.

    Couldn't resist this one.
    Oh all right, these two.

    Thought I'd add the full image, so you can see where the feather came from

    Oh Alison, this was taken with the 580EXII flash.
    I used a Lastolite Apollo XL softbox on the flash to diffuse the light, I think it worked on the black kitten?
    The softbox makes the camera/flash unwieldy, but since it's bigger than the kitten it's good for shadows.

    I use Warehouse Express online, good prices and fast delivery.
    Ordered Tuesday 11pm, arrived Friday before 9am.

    The velcro they supply has appallingly unsticky adhesive, I replaced it with decent stuff.
    In the end I'm going to use velcro adjustable straps (must buy more) because it tends to sag.
    Find for closeups of the cats, but not so good for other uses like portraits I guess.
