February Snow Storm

WOW…. thats one word for it (I can think of a few others). Two snow storms back to back literally destroyed the Hudson Valley. Heavy snow with total accumulations of more than two feet piled ontop of roofs and trees and with all the weight, bought everything crashing down, taking power lines with it. After three days without power or heat, im lucky enough to be able to say that my power was restored about 4pm yesterday afternoon. There are still plenty of people without power and expectations are that it could be about a week before everyone has it restored. Here are a few images from the storm.

Cybersync’s From Paul Buff

Cybersyncs are a great addition to my alienbees as they provide remotes for off camera flash. Cybersyncs are cheap in terms of price but very durable. Fot the price of a pocket wizard, you can get a cybersync trigger and two recievers. More information on the cybersyncs can be seen HERE.
