I shot a sporting event over the Easter weekend and actually made a few bucks from selling images. My first real paying gig, sort of! :)

So decided to use the money I made to put together a basic portable studio set up. After a fair bit of research I went for the Cactus V5 Duo wireless trigger system, a pair of Yongnuo YN560-II flashes, light stand, shoot thru/bounce umbrella and a few other bits and pieces. After playing around with the gear over the weekend I have to say that I'm very impressed with the triggers/flashes. I've been triggering the first flash using the V5s and slaving the second flash and this set up is yet to produce a single misfire.

Here's a couple of 'quick and dirty' shots. Comments/critiques very welcome.



Cheers,
Qiki
