Lightroom’s masking capabilities have skyrocketed over the past year or so, making me love this editing software even more.

The AD200 from Godox (this one) redefined what a small flash is capable of. It was released about six years ago and, to this day, remains the most versatile, portable, and powerful small flash unit available.

Rob Blakers refused to leave a logging area in Tasmania’s Eastern Tiers, where critically endangered swift parrot habitat was being destroyed.
