So, the Rematch took place at Sun Studios in Melbourne to another sell out crowd hungry for a bit of Lucha Libre action! Or were they there for the workshop?

For me it was great to have another crack at the Lucha Libre theme, especially since I wanted to try and get a stronger variation of the final Pinada shot. Which I feel that I did….., and have the awesome slow motion clip shot by Russell Watson to prove it! 😉

Once again the Speedlite system performed faultlessly as expected, allowing me to achieve the lighting I wanted quickly and without fuss.
