BTW, great lighting. Messing with techniques learned from Strobist?
finally! Someone who appreciates quality work!

I used three lights, two Photogenics studio strobes and one speedlight. One studio light was fired into a chimera softbox camera right. The other was bounced off an umbrella camera left. The speedlight was unmodifed and was placed camera left to hit the model in the background.

The techniques are my own from 30 years of making films/videos.

I've bought strobes, umbrellas, stands, and other junk... just for this type of shooting, and I've yet to use them properly. I just need the models!

Again, I can appreciate the work. Photography seems so simple, until you start using artificial light.

I like the pic of the car the best!

The guy never changes his expression.


# 4 is a good photo.

Use this https://my350z.com/forum/photography/363740-official-tilt-shifting-thread.html on pic #4 to see how it would come out.
