Dan Medhurst's Snowboard Stopper

FYI, a "stopper" is a photo that does just that: Smacks you in the face and tells you to stop and look at it.

Congrats to Strobist reader Dan Medhurst, of Leeds (UK) on his photo of a snowboarder carving a turn for the cover of Document Snowboard Magazine. Simple light -- two speedlights -- gorgeous result. Click the pic to see Dan's notes, plus a link to his early test shot from when he was first figuring out the light a month ago.

Hey Dan, howzabout a little more detailed info in that Flickr caption? Give us all the dirt. (UPDATE: He did! Thanks!)

I just saw the magazine in WHSmith and the shot looked great.
Congratulations to Dan on the cover shot and also for making the Strobist website :)

Wasn't sure whether I should ask in the strobist group or here. I guess I'll ask here first. The PC port on one of my SB-24's doesn't work, was just curious as to whether there was a quick cheap fix for it, or whether I should just go out and buy a hotshoe adapter for it, or is there another cable I could use instead? Thanks in advance, this site has been a huge influence on me =)

I would ask in the strobist discussion group on flickr, James.
