Things does not always go as planned.

After finishing the last threeweek long course at school, I was desperate to shoot something that I _wanted_ to do.

It was late, but the light was epic, so I threw the Ranger RX flash in the trunk and went out with Henrik. He needed some new pics for his outerwear-sponsor anyways. Came to the location I had in mind, and I could see that the ambient was dropping really fast. Dragged the damn Ranger across a giant field, and when I finally had it rigged, it was almost pitch black. And I thought “what the heck”, and just shot 20 frames with what was available. Wrapped it up, and went home. No shots good enough for any catalogue-use, but there is plenty of time for that.

So until next time, I´ve learned that stress usually gets you nowhere, and that I´ll have to plan a shoot like that better. The good thing though, is that I now find myself seldomly coming home from a shoot with things that is not good enough.

Like this frame of Henrik. Waiting in between shots, beautiful evening light, and freezing cold. Lonely. It makes me feel good!
