With the rest of our July submissions!
Michelle Kuijer, of ON, sent in two submissions this month. In her first submission, she used the existing spotlight and added additional light from her external flash.

For you Rush fans (my hubby included!), those drums are the originals played by the legendary Neil Peart for his first few years on tour. I love her son’s shirt, which reads, “Got Peart?” 
Michelle’s other photo uses simply her on-camera flash:

Love the framing! Thanks for sharing, Michelle!
Our last submission this month comes from Serena Gedlaman, of AB. Serena writes, of her lighting: “I used my on-camera flash, but turned on every available light source and set up some extra lamps that I could direct toward my daughter from her left side.”

Great job, Serena - and what a happy expression you’ve captured! Thanks for your submission.
I’ll announce a winner tomorrow – and be sure to watch for a new tutorial on combination lighting!
Cheers,
Sue has been behind a camera for more than 25 years, working professionally as a photographer for the last ten years. While she began the hobby of scrapbooking in 2000, as a complement to her photographer career, it soon grew into a rival passion! Sue loves to enlarge one of her favourite photos and make it the focal point of her page, using her supplies to bring the focus onto her photography. She has, in recent years, turned more to scrapbooking "moments" rather than "events", choosing to leave her children more insight into her point of view of their lives.
