on the plus side, the exposure is about right so presumably your new toy works

which one did you go for?

I always used to scoff at the prices of flashguns, but now that Ive got one its worth every penny when you need that extra light.

I got a jessops own jobbie, £79 so not bad, has some pretty cool features.

Got some good shots but also some crazy over exposure with it, i need to learn it a bit so i know when to bounce the flash or diffuse it

not really into Photography, but is it just me that thinks that photo is pretty freaky ?  it looks like everything is photoshopped, the post on the left, the car, the cars... only the ground looks real :o

its the depth of field that gives that effect, i think it looks pretty cool, but yeah a bit odd
