The Pirates of St Piran - Photo Shoot

I was asked to take some publicity shots for The Pirates of St Piran, an 18th Century Cornish pirate re-enactment group that do lots of fantastic charity work in and around Cornwall.

The shots were taken on the deck of the Kaskelot, a square rigger that lives in Charlestown harbour and has been used in films such as Return to Treasure Island and the Three Musketeers.

The rain was lashing down, sadly, so the decks were covered and conditions very dark, so I tried to overcome this by bouncing my flash off the canvas roof.
