Great timing. I've been gathering the lights, candles, and lanterns to experiment with a similar, but not the same setup. You have added some new things to try. Thanks Gavin and Chloe.

Coming from France mate, great to see another video. It's cold in France my first European winter and as an Australian it's cold here hahaha. Great content as always and would love to meet you in person for a shoot one-day. Have a great week mate.

Over the years I've learned a ton watching your videos. I started photography knowing very little about the craft, today I owe a debt of gratitude to you Gavin Hoey and adorama for the great content presented over the years. Thank you.
