Hi guys,

This weekend my friend asked me to take some pictures of his new ride, Golf GTi. I don't know how to shoot the interior with one flash ( wireless ). :oops:

Please help me with the light setup for this picture. I got: 1x550EX, 1 Silver Umbrela and wireless trigger. Plus, any ideas even without the flash are welcome.

Promise to post some pictures from this shooting day.
Thanks :cool:

It'll be hard with just one flash unit, but you can set up a white piece of cloth behind the front seats and place the flash behind it... it may work for you. It worked for me with an Audi RS4, but I had two or three units.

I used one flash to shoot all the time. Then I strip in the parts one by one, so it looks as it I had used 15 flashes... well, I can't afford Hensel mobi lights although i'd love to have those.

Depending on what part of it you're shooting, i'd imagine you can light through the windshield or side windows.
