night shots.

[lucky7]

i was bored, so i took a few shots. used 1 flash this time around. i think i like 'em. love how crappy the car looks. i cant wait till its dumped and scraping the mudflaps on the ground. :D :D

[Stephen]

I like it alot. I really want to try out my new flashez

[Simon S]

i would drive the ever livin balls out of a car like that..

I like it a lot.

you have more flashes? It seems like some shots could use more light.

[lucky7]

my vivitar was acting up... but i have the ability to make it rain. :D


i was just trying some single flash stuff. i really havnt ever messed around with lights like i most people do. im still a lighting newbie.

[87e30]

holy fuck. so jealous. you win.

[lucky7]

i only have the vivitar and a 430ex. my buddy has the 3 B800's, vagabond II, 580exII, vivitar and lumo pro flash. thats just the 2 of us. then we have 7 pocketwizards between the 2 of us. then 2 other buddys have 5 or 6 and some more flashes. when we get together, shit gets crazy. :D

[lucky7]

but i dig taking shots or our lighting setup's.





















now im just getting out of control.

[Stephen]

What kinda vivitar?

[lucky7]

285hv. i wasnt able to trigger it today. the PC sync cord works, the flash works, and so does the pocketwizard.. put them all together, and i got nothing. correct channel, plug, transmit/recieve, etc. the shit just wouldnt fire. i was getting pissed so i put it away...

[Stephen]

nice! i have 2 285s im using, one as a slave... But i havent had them long, still getting used to it all

[87e30]

Damn. I need off camera lighting for sure. Makes shots pop so much better...

Nice stuff you have going on there.

[Oz10]

Nice shots. That second to last one in the OP looks awesome. And I'm jealous of your lighting setups!

[steinbachphoto]

bg light would have helped lots so the car isn't blending in with the background

download (i mean legally purchase) nikon's creative guide to lighting. it is kind of an ad for nikon, but still really helpful in terms of teaching proper lighting.
