Tecnicus' photostream

Ok so i'm just in to my second year of flickr, and its official, i'm actually addicted! I'd like to thank everyone who has left a comment, a note, a message or who has just taken some time to look at my images. I'd also like to thank everyone of those great photographers who have given me inspiration, or who have shared their knowledge with me somehow. Its people like you who make flickr such a great site, and who give it a sense of community.

Over the past year i've experimented with lots of different styles, and I feel i've grown as a photographer because of it. Portraiture is still my passion and i'm always looking for new 'models' and new ways of capturing the essence of a person.

I've now completed my A level in digital photography, which was great because I got to spend loads of time tinkering with images in photoshop. It also means that i'm a lot less daunted when using my newly aquired CS4.

I now have my own website, www.kingsleyphotography.co.uk , however, its mainly there for me to show potential clients some of my work. I still post the majority of my work here, on flickr. I have also now photographed a few weddings and have been really pleased with the results. I've even made a few people cry, in a good way of course, which was lovely.

My kit now seems massive, compared to what it was like when I first started on here. I now currently use:

Canon 50D
Sigma 10-20MM HSM lens
Canon 24-70MM f2.8 L USM lens
Canon 70-200MM f4 L USM IS lens
Canon 50mm f1.8 prime lens
Canon 100mm f2.8 USM macro lens
Canon BG-E2N battery grip
Canon 580 EX II speedlight
Rayflash ringflash adapter
Manfrotto 190X pro tripod with ball head
Bowens Gemini 250/250 lighting kit with travelpak
Wacom bamboo graphics tablet
Photoshop CS4
Portrait professional
Photomatix

Once again, thanks for stopping by. Any thoughts or suggestions are much appreciated, i'm always open to new ideas.
