| Seven and I were listening to some old Bowie when I thought I'd take a snap of the Tom K HQ driving seat and in particular our new kompoota! That'll little Chromebox makes a great posing platform for the little guys!  This desk also rapidly converts into Tom K HQ Photographic Studios, the mastering of using limited space is an art form in itself!  _________________ RalphMe? Well, I live life vicariously!

| A very well laid out, multi-use work area! I see you have Flocktastic's business card front and centre...funny I'd have thought you have him on speed-dial! _________________  Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it. | |

I see you have Flocktastic's business card front and centre...funny I'd have thought you have him on speed-dial! He almost is Steve! But, I am sure he just finds me irritating! If you think this is tidy, then you'd want to see my work desk, when I leave work that desk looks as if nobody ever used it! Oh! Maybe that's because I haven't either! _________________ RalphMe?

...definitely bijou! ...that is a VAM Russian jacket waiting for restore. The epaulets are shot and there are buttons missing, but I think the grime will wash out and it'll turn out quite usable. I have considered dying it too...  _________________ RalphMe? Well, I live life vicariously! My Action Man? Well, he lives life victoriously! See my photos @ Flickr | |

| So, here is Tom K HQ's 'bijou' Command Centre converted into Tom K HQ Photographic Studios. First a distance shot so you can see the lighting setup and then the close up shot I took of Diesel in woodland camo... The camera is on a tripod. I use zoom to do the close up! The missus has permanently lent me a soft box continuous light and a reflector...   Apart from the resizing for AMMO and FB, this is a completely unedited photograph straight out of the camera...   This is with a little Cross Process effect, I love the way it deepens and enriches the colours...  _________________ RalphMe? Well, I live life vicariously! My Action Man?

|  Sure that's bright enough Ralph?? Those blue marks on Diesel's face aren't from leaking plasticiser, they're radiation burns from that arc-light!! That's an amazing set-up, as shown by the quality of the pics you produce! Top work! _________________ Life moves pretty fast.

Top work! Lol! The light in that box is a huge helix low energy bulb, so not so hot, even though it's like bringing the sun indoors...  Having the lighting and reflector has made the whole process of taking photos a lot less hit and miss and great for colour, but I will do some more grainy monochrome some time soon as well...  Glad you like them and Diesel is so photogenic he makes VAM snaps easy! _________________ RalphMe? Well, I live life vicariously! My Action Man? Well, he lives life victoriously!
