I really dig those last 3 images. The lighting is gorgeous. For inspiration, if you’re interested in seeing how famous photographers light their images, take a peek http://www.guessthelighting.com.

Hi Bert

Thank you for sharing you photos and advice. I started taking photography seriously about 7 years ago, and a couple of years ago I stumbled across your very helpful YouTube videos.

Keep up the good work,

Hi, i am a press photographer from Spain. Firstly i have to apologize for my english, It’s really poor.

I was looking for new techniques to use in my daily work. The press photographer always has to hurry up. We have short time to take our pictures so we have to think quickly and improvise in anyplace. I found your website and i liked too much. It is a good inspiration and it’s full of sincerity. I have learned things that i am impatient to experiment with.

Thanks and keep on. Don’t give up!!!

Bert,

Thank you foe being so open and honest about ‘life’ at the moment. All to often photographers can paint this picture of ‘everything is just swell’ when it isn’t and this can be quite frustrating to those of us at times are feeling the pinch. How can it be so good for them? What am I doing wrong etc…? when really, I think everyone is feeling it a little however big or small.

You mention how important shooting for yourself has been and what it’s done for you; this I can totally relate to. Last week I took a trip to a famous seaside town here in the UK with a good friend; both of us armed with just one camera, one lens and just shot all day. I was tempted to take along a California Sunbounce Mini but no, I resisted.

This day out I really do now feel was the best decision I’ve made in a long time. It was liberating and completely refreshing and has left me so incredibly hungry. Not working to a schedule or having a client to please was such a wonderful and constructive experience, I’m now feeling totally recharged and ready to run at full speed again; and this after just one day away.

Needless to say we’re putting in many more of these days in the future…I mean, why wouldn’t I

Bert, enjoy your vacation and the benefits you will reap upon your return,
I wish you all the very best for now and the future,

Glyn

Welcome back Bert. I am in Sarajevo and it is too hot to go out, so I’ve been watching Squeeze the Lime videos on my mobile. They make me want to go and take shots again, glad you do too.
