This is my first attempt at Strobist lighting on a car. This convertable belongs to a friend of mine, and asked me to shoot some pics for him before he sells it.
All C&C greatly appreciated.

Oct 22, 2008 22:50 | #3 Thanks Padrino, the setup is 430EX fired through umbrella camera left, full power, and a 580EX full power through an umbrella camera right. I had both flashes about 5 feet up on the stands. These were shot with: 1DMkIII // 6D // 90D // 50 1.8 mkII // 24-70 2.8 L USM // 70-200 2.8 L USM // 580 EX // 430 EX // S3IS //

I just made it appear so. I was really after this contrasty look. So I used the strobes to bias my lighting away from the ambient and more towards my subject. I could have done a better job with placement of my lights though, or perhaps used a third strobe. 1DMkIII // 6D // 90D // 50 1.8 mkII // 24-70 2.8 L USM // 70-200 2.8 L USM // 580 EX // 430 EX // S3IS //
