I posted those two 8x10s because I was asking for help on a weird issue I was curious about and couldnt find searching for it elsewhere. Now you use the lowest of low hanging fruit to say I suck in general. I even said they were a failure in the posts...

Here is an 8x10 contact print that is more up to my standard in all regards. I know you will say it sucks because you will never say anything I do is good, but I think this is a really nice image and a great use for 8x10. This picture looks incredible framed up nicely.

I am so happy with how this print came out I decided to scan it to share. I got it as close to what the actual print looks like in person.

This picture is actually growing on me and I think it may be my best egg picture yet. Aside from how extremely beautiful it looks I love the contrast between my hand and the egg I'm holding. Almost like the egg is more important than I am or it is weighing me down. Symbolic of the sacrifice I make to raise chickens for their eggs, maybe.
I shot this a little above 1:1 and it is kind of strange seeing my hand but bigger on a print.

You can get professional strobes for not too much money on ebay, but they won't be wireless and they'll be enormous and potentially dangerous monsters. Speedotron makes some beastly flashes and the modeling light actually does something. They still repair and sell shit for their systems. The black box ones are the high end models
