went out lastnight and took some pics of a mates S2

just experimenting at the mo with a couple of flash triggers and 2 flash heads.

 

Bottom one looks brill, mag quality!

 

Looking good mate

 

Getting better Nik!

Some are over exposed, some under, some better light positioning required at times but the likes of the last one shows that its all coming together!

Its a tricky thing to get right at first, but when you do its piss easy.
(and some snappers just seem to end up shooting EVERYTHING in that style as well when they've worked it out )

 

get some pics of the white estate up! s2 looks mint in last pic

ADE cheers fella, it was my first time trying night shots. its all pratice i suppose, but i dont think ill be stealing your job in the near future

just need me a travel pak and then i can use the bowens gear, the dodgy ebay triggers almost got thrown in the near by river

SillyFezzaMk1 lol it isnt white its and odd green coloured kombi. it never comes out looking right.

 

Practice is the best thing with that kinda stuff.....

Those triggers are so shit, but nothing else for that kinda money does the job. Although you can still get good results if you can work around their senility! This was the last shoot I did before I shelled out big time for the Bowens gear:

Shot with 3 shitty Centon flashes on stands and those very eBay triggers you've got!

 

ebay triggers thatll soon be finding there way to the bin

well for practicing theyll do untill ive saved for a travel-pak.

top pic alot more practice for me i think

 

Yeah ideal for practicing.... only really become a real pain when you're getting paid to shoot a stranger's car!

There's more on that page if you scroll down too. Not quite the same effect as you're going for there as I've balanced the background exposure in the Capri ones, but I've got some blacked out background ones too I could let you see....

PS, Travelpak doesn't work as a remote trigger, sounded like you thought it did? Pulsars or Pocket Wizards do the trick.
And also you'll need at least two Travelpaks if doing a car as the leads are nowhere near long enough to get the right positioning with just one

 

i had a look around at the other pics on your site, now those are the pics id like to be taking.

2 travel-paks oh well abit more saving will be needed.

so ill be needing a set of thses as well then

Cheers

It ain't cheap, I've got 7 Pulsars and 3 Travelpak plusses, 3 Gemini heads, and a pair of SB800's for lighting

PM'd about that bit of kit......
