Tight and Motion. October 20th, 2008

Here are a few shots that I’ve been working on for stock, the idea was to zoom in to action that is generally gone in the blink of an eye and that no one really pays much attention to, and I also tried to use water to emphasize motion, all with the use of flash. After years of hiring large portable flashes, I decided to bite the bullet and buy some, I decided on Elinchrom. I went down to see the guys at The Flash Centre and they sorted me out with a Ranger RX speed kit with 2 A heads and Skyport remotes. It’s a pretty outstanding bit of kit.
So I went out and gave them a test run in the mud and water, all worked beautifully. I didn’t quite get all the shots I was after, but I managed a few gems.
