My only suggestion would be to watch the reflections, In one I can see a light and stand, and in another I can see a person :) other than that though I like the shots

I like the photos. Just in the last one, my eye is distracted by your car with the open door and the Mountain Dew.

Thanks for all the suggestions and comments guys.
Got word from an editor friend that I'm going to get to feature it in an online magazine in the comming month.
I will get much better shots of it and show yall when it's completed.

What I'm going to try is to get my flashes to fire at large sheets of white styrofoam off to the sides of the car. The lit up styrofoam will then reflect off of the car, creating the effect of being completely lit.

It's tricky,...

It will be tricky & I'd like to see how it comes out. Look at how I used a white building in the HHR link. I think something like that would work better for you, & maybe the cement walls in the garage (Gag!) might work. ;)

I'm going to start small. I'm going to use my bike and see how it works. I've also seen some one paint a car with a softbox. It was a newer suv/hatch with really aggresive lines and it accentuated it perfectly.

But for the car, I may end up doing a longer exposure and reposition the board two or three times to cover it.


My village called. I was told that they missed me.

Speedotron users, untie!
