I had a first time shoot with local model Nicola Jayne recently in a close by woodland area.  We tried to schedule the shoot for dusk to incorporate a colourful sky, but being mid-February the light falls really quickly and we resorted to finding a nice area in the wood away from the mud.  Although the evening was very cold and dark, we managed to get a few shots completed before we called it a day.

This is my favourite image from the shoot, using my Nikon D300, Nikkor 24-70 F2.8 lens, Bowens Gemini 500 flashhead and travelpak, with an Octabox.  Triggered with PowerWizard MiniTT1 and TT5 receiver.
