Continuing with #photography I got very into portraits, specifically playing with light, and again, doing as much IN camera as possible. Here are two friend's photos from that period (I'd checked at the time if I could share publicly)

At the time, I had 3 cheap chinese knockoff market speedlights, and a used canon 5d body that cost $500 at the time. There is zero editing in post, other than color correction, some contrast correction.
