Very nice! The lighting setup worked for you.

[DoOb's]

Thanks Jethro....ive made these diffusers for each flash coz when i was taking shots in an indoor skatepark the light on the skaters face was too harsh.

The diffusers/softbox definitely is toning it down even at like 1/2 power flash output.

I wanna know what equipment i need to use for the how strobist scene.

You need triggers to get both flashes off camera.

Did you sharpen these, or is it just compression?

[DoOb's]

Yea slight sharpen and unsharp mask.

I was actually wanting to do exactly that....but i dont have another one of those Flash foots to mount it to a tripod. Only have my one i got with my 430exII.

What type of angle should i look at doing when shooting skaters....one on either side of me type of thing

Oh man I miss the neighborhood mini ramp.

Back up,
Angles are fine but your in there so tight...
You dont need the cost of ex's for off camera stuff.

For a test run they look very good. Yes triggers would probably help but its always going to be $$$$$$$$ in photography
