Also it doesn't have to be expensive. Assuming you have a camera already you could get started with strobist techniques with a very limited kit: Second Hand Flash - £40 Triggers - £20 Stand/Old Tripod £12 That comes to £72… not a lot of money to spend on something you enjoy. With that basic kit you could do a shot just like the <a href="/how-i-shoot-lowkey-portrait/" rel="nofollow">Lowkey Portrait</a> I have recently blogged about. Yes I used an umbrella box in that shot but it's not necessary; you would just end up with a slightly harsher light.

Love the drawings, now I want to begin with strobisme (but I neither have the time and the money now). BTW:( I think you have forgotten a word in your 2nd sentence.) Great post Rick!
