I took this photo at the Melbourne Motor Show on the weekend. I was quite pleased with how it came out considering it was taken at the Mitsubishi desk under the stairs. I asked them to stand back a little so they could stand under a little down light (hair light. lol).

I like the frame as well. I would like to see the original so I can see how much cropping was done and if you did anything with the background. The background is great for under the stairs at a car show.

Light looks great for a car show. Do you have any attachment on your flash to diffuse light?

Thanks guys. I will put up the original tonight. There is a pretty big difference between what came out of the camera and the photo I have posted. The girls themselves are uncropped, I just cropped out some of the background to either side and from the top. Then I cloned out the joins in the wall and removed a bit of reflection from one of the lights.

Here is a photo a friend took of the desk where I took the shot. The background looks a little more of a creamy colour under the walkway in this shot even though it is the same as the walkway that the LCD display is attached to.

I didn't use a flash for the photo. Here is a car that was just in front of the desk. You can see all the little down lights above it which were the light source for this photo.

Thanks again for the kind words.

For those that are interested here is the shot as it came out of the camera, just converted from RAW to JPG and resized.
