First time using strobes, purchased a used Jinbei Discovery DC600 and tried it on an amazing car.

Got problem with my triggers, so did this shoot using the TEST button. FML. Only one strobe with softbox, multiple exposures.

Congrats on the cover!

was that a composite/multi-exposure of the 2 cars, or did you shoot the two in the same frame?

Thanks... yes... lighting each car separately worked best, although we had 6 strobes that day. lol

Single b800 (bare) placed in front of the car at camera left. Used to fill the front to better match light from sun. Hoping to have many more strobing examples to share in the near future.

3 hours left to this webinar. You'll really benefit from this one, I'm serious about it. The webinar won't be recorded, so you'll miss out a lot (1-2 hours worth) of learning about lighting.
