Here are a few shots from Tuesday. I ventured out at 102 degrees early in the morning. The site is in Oklahoma. I hope you enjoy them. 40D , 17-55IS, 580EX11 and softbox







 
Nice shots but I think that they could've been improved with a wider aperture to isolate the subject and blur the background. Any particular reason you didn't use f/2.8?

When you get down to the nuts and bolts of photography, the results depend on the 'nut' behind the camera!

See the 'Plan' in my 'Profile' for my current equipment.
 
Before I shot the pictures I decided i wanted to include the village in the shots and not just come up with portrait shots. There was so much atmosphere in the surroundings that it would have been a shame to blurr it out. Just my preferance but a good question. Here'a shot that will fill your requirements. Its one of my personel favorites
