A couple of shots I've taken recently.

strobist: 1 Vivitar 285HV, camera right (in room behind subject), 1/16 power, bare, with a full CTB gel. 1 Vivitar 285HV, camera left high and pointed downward, 1/4 power, shot using a 15 degree SaxonPC grid in foam housing and a full CTO gel. Triggered via Cybersyncs.


The following shot wasn't exactly planned. The owner wanted me to take a shot of his automobile sometime in the future, but wanted me to see the car first. When we met, I decided to throw up some lightstands, screw on a polarizer, and see what we could get right then and there. The backdrop is certainly not ideal for the portrait, but I was proud of how well the car looked under the strobes that I decided to post the test shot to flickr anyway. Eventually the owner wants me to do a couple more sessions with the automobile. He's hoping to have it published in a calendar next year.
