You've surely ruled out Tom Tom's shot if you are gonna say that

Why? He's used controlled light? He turned on the monitor and chose to allow light through the curtain in his photo

Ab22's reply was to me asking if natural light was ok - so yes if I use something to actsully control it I.e reflector or diffuser etc.

Nothing flash about the photograph ( excuse the pun) but the light was controled by tilting the blinds to fall on the wall, and adjusting the brightness of the monitor

I think it meets the criteria set down for the challenge.

Basic error.

I meant Hesford's shot

I think the criteria has to include natural light myself, and people can judge who has controlled whatever form of light they use

Eh, he's using flash guns - if that isn't controlled light then I don't know what is

And yet tom tilts his blinds and you say that'n now ok? Bizarre rationale that like.

IMO they're both OK.

Loads of natural light spilling in. Look at the reflections on the left

I think it's absolutely fine, just doesn't meet AB's criteria

'fraid not. All the light in there was made by me. It's all boarded up, and taken after dark (it's the only way of getting in, without involving Durham's finest) ask Clyde

Not much danger of that, the lead was off the roof within a week of closing.
