Backwards Man / naM sdrawkcaB [035] - a photo on Flickriver

Backwards man was Al's idea. I was originally meant to be shaking the hand of 'forwards man' but once Gem started firing some shots off we realised that there was more fun to be had.

Leaping around like an idiot with his clothes on backwards can have lasting effects on your body; those being bruises, sore legs and the danger of shoes flying off.

Was great fun though, and it's made me realise I essentially have a small photo studio in my front lounge room now that the couch is gone. All I need to do is get some backdrop stands and we're good to go.

Strobist: SB-25 fired through an umbrella camera left (1/4 power), SB-25 bouncing off the ceiling camera right (1/8th) and a Sigma EF-500 Super lighting the wall from the floor.

As a special present, I'll post up some out-takes a little later. The Making of Backwards Man
