Huge Storm Over Belgium

Last night we had a huge storm over the Limburg region of Belgium. What better way thing to do than shoot some lightning photos. There were huge bolts just a couple of km from where we were and I took advantage of the opportunity. Here are the best samples of the shots:









The shots were taken at f/10, 30 sec., ISO 400 with the *ist DS and DA 18-55mm AL

Review: Metz 50 AF-1 Flash (for Pentax)

Introduction
Review: The Metz 50 AF-1 flash for Pentax cameras. In short, it's a brilliant, full featured flash that will meet the requirements of those who primarily work with portable flashes. Although missing some features found in the current flash offerings from Pentax, those who shoot with Pentax cameras should look to this flash as a viable tool in their toolbox. For those who don't normally shoot with portable flashes, there are alternatives which are smaller, cheaper, and more adept to occasional flash use.

New Features of the Website

 If you've been following the site closely, you may have seen some new changes!

---------------------------------------------------------------

Firstly, new logo! I did another redesign of the logo for Andrei Seki photography. This was to make the logo more visible on watermarked images and to incorporate my background in graphic design to the logo. The original midnight blue and silver of the original logo is still kept in the new one so there is a nice transition between the two (and silver and midnight blue looks awesome together).

---------------------------------------------------------------

Now there is a navigation bar on the top of the site which links to various pages of the site such as my portfolio (still being worked on as new photos are uploaded to Flickr), contact information, and:

---------------------------------------------------------------

Now on the navigation bar above is a section dedicated to camera gear reviews. Click on the link to go to a list of the newest reviews of camera gear.

Currently, there is one review of the Metz 50 AF-1 flash but expect more as new gear is added into the arsenal of camera gear used at Andrei Seki Photography!
