Update

Hi there again guys! :)
I said I'd update you on my new petalhead hood for my camera, so here I am....uuupadating you!

I haven't actually been out to try it properly yet, but I have fixed it to the camera and gone around the house (I know that doesn't make a difference whatsoever because that's controlled lighting) BUT here's the pros and cons:

Pros:

- The fit is strong onto the filter screw.
- Hard and sturdy plastic, so you get what you pay for, not the cheap plastic stuff.
- Doesn't look cheap and nasty, looks professional.
- Does it's purpose for a great price.

Cons:

- Although it fits strongly onto the filter screw, you have to think about it instead of being able to put it on quiclky, which for some people may be annoying depending on preference.
- You can't pack it away onto the camera as it doesn't have the screw setting on the otherside (turning it the other way so it basically hugs the lens) which makes it nice for putting in camera bags, but with people like me, it doesn't matter much at all.
- Moves around with the lens on "AUTO mode". Though, when you're on Manual setting it doesn't do this.


At the minute it has a '10% off' offer, so take a look and get your hands on this fab cheap lens hood and add it to your kit!

It really annoys me

It really annoys me when photographers who are at my stage and lower or a bit higher, who arrange with clients a photoshoot...and then they either they don't turn up AT ALL or let them down mere hours before?
What is that all about?

It annoys me in my sense because it affects people who are still in the early days of their career in this industry because people and locals will be weary and a little less trusting in photographers therefore not getting much service they'd like or expect.

I can't stress this enough, I don't want people spoiling this for me when it's something I want so bad.

Hmmmm! Sort it out guys!

Marmaris and shenanigans. :)

Last week I went to Marmaris in Turkey for a week with the Girlfriend. :)
It was so lovely, and so nice and romantic at times. I had such a good time, and it was both of our first time without our parents being there, which made it pretty special. 

The only downside was the men who owned places like the gift shops or "knock off" shops that they have absolutely everywhere baring in mind. They were horrible! Absolutely disgusting. They are actually the reason I wont ever choose to go back there. It made the holiday awkward because all the time, we'd want to avoid them at all costs. 
Most of them are like LEACHES. They are obsessed with sex and girls. Shouting and asking if me my girlfriend and him want a gangbang? Yet he was telling us he's tired from f**king his wife excuse my language ..yes WIFE every night? What an idiot. You get looked at like you're a piece of meat everywhere you go.
Funny thing was, we passed a place where a sign said "No hassle" but as we walked past a waiter shouts to us " CHIIIICKS" raising his eyebrows as if to call us over. No. Just nooo? Why?! g.o.a.w.a.y GOD.

Don't get me wrong....The country is gorgeous, the boat trip was romatic and peacful, yet hilarious at the same time and I loved every minute of the holiday! But wow, some people in this world! Stunned.

Nevertheless, I got some pretty fine images on my camera of the week, so I'll be sure to post them at some point when I work out how to use this thing! 

Cheerio. :)
