Even though I live across the pond, I should be able to find materials similar to yours and make my own beauty dish and diffuser. The stand may take a little longer. I was able to get a hide from a fish and hunting sale. I love it. Just be careful where you set it up. We live on 3 acres with hunters all around. Luckily, our closest neighbor gives us a call when going hunting. Please post any more DIY, I'm very interested.

I have just started my own blog : http://davesphotos-kerryman.blogspot.com/ although not as professional as yours its a start. I am an Englishman now living in Co Kerry, Ireland, it is one of the most beautiful areas with an abundance of photo opportunities I am 67 years young and have this year revived my interest in photography, I started in my early twenties, and have had several different cameras over the years, and am now enjoying living with a DSLR. I have also joined a local camera club that is lucky enough to have a professional photographer that attends, and gives his time freely, so we are lucky. I now have a few lenses, but am looking at the Sigma 10-20mm, I see you already have this. In looking through your blog, i like your hide, could you tell me where you purchased it please? I am also very impressed with your DIY flash systems, they are excellent! and gives me food for thoughts, thank you.

GREAT JOB! Looks amazing! I'm in dire straits, so I'll definitely give this a go! I have a Metz 45 CL-1 and a Metz 60 CT-1. Do you think it can be applied to these? How do you make the beauty dish hold on to the flashgun? Hi!

The only thing that helped was time away from the computer! Photography helped in that regard, but taking photographs isn't going to help you much right now! However, you could get out and about finding new photo locations. Having a cold's a bummer especially at this time of year. Almost everyone I know has or is suffering with something this Christmas. It's not good. I used to get some sort of muscular pain in my neck/shoulder region after spending days of extended periods at the computer. The only thing that helped was time away from the computer!

That D700 looks mighty impressive from the dcresource.com review especially the active D-Lighting and extended bracketing features. Nikon's 14-24mm lens looks amazing.

Being so used to using a zoom lens, I find it a refreshing change, if nothing else, using my 50mm. It's fun to get the old grey matter working in a different way every now and then!
