Well, that's a wrap for 2014

All photos now taken for 2014 unless there is a need for something on Christmas Day (but a compact will just as easily handle that)......so it's time to dust off the gear and pack it away for a well-earned rest until the 4th January 2015.

The last two assignments were completely different but good to do in each of their own ways.

One was to photograph a Pilates class for pregnant women.  I set up my bright white backdrop in the rented hall space and aligned everyone in groups of three so that they all fitted in without too much spilling out over the edges for tidying up afterwards in Photoshop.  The pictures were easy to take as they performed slow stretching movements and as they were all of a similar height they were aligned with the "...biggest bump to the back..."

The other assignment was to photograph the local scouts as they looked to recreate an early photograph of the group after they were formed in December 2014.  Lots of old scout hats and accoutrements in evidence, though after 100 years the scouts looked better fed and less susceptible to ricketts that their predecessors.
