Then again I was reading this with eye strain at 10 past midnight :/ Moe's in the UK, awaiting me paying for Customs Charges - so I need to receive the letter in the post with the ID so I can pay online. Why they can't send me an email with the parcel ID and charge to pay I don't know. Would certainly mean I don't have to wait for Moe to get into the UK, to then be sent a letter, which takes a few days, and for them to then finish the delivery :( o.O – I take it back then lol

I don't need to turn off any light (that's why there's no mention of turning off lights here). I shot all these black shots with the same amount of room light that you can see in the setup photos presented in this article. One can almost say the room is actually very bright, one fluorescent light right overhead and two other table lamp sitting somewhere else in the room, plus there's actually LED lights in the display cabinet all were on when the shots were made. The key here is that I setup my camera (in my case I have it at ISO 100 F22 @ 1/200 seconds) so that without light my flash, it will produce an black frame. And therefore any amount of ambient lights in the room really is irrelevant. Good news on Nanoha. Can't wait to see her. Hopefully your Moe is on the way too. Actually no.

I don't think you actually ever mentioned about turning the lights off in the room lol Although I could be mistaken. Oh, and just a general update - Nanoha is sitting in her box, inside a cardboard box on the floor behind me. Once I move my desk into my new area, I'll get her out and be sure to photograph the event ;) An intriguing technique – though I’m guessing for all these you need to turn off all other light sources other than the flash?

I can't find a stand anywhere, be it round-the-waist or saddle version, and most of the stuff I'm interested in like wigs on the Volks site is out of stock. There is an outfit though on the Volks site, http://www.volks.co.jp/images/goods/img8284_0.jpg Though that's only because I can't find much else thats in stock lol Also, I don't know if you wanted me to contact you via email for anything else - I don't know if having all these comments is annoying or anything to you.. Thanks again :) Hey, sorry for more questions lol
