Was reading this thread finally and if finaly got me motivated to pull out my hilite out for the first time tonight to experiment and see if I need a 3rd flash. Pulled in the only available subject around (the Mrs) and tried a few shots. Here is probably the best one.
I've use only one light in the 6x7 hilite and one small softbox next to the camera. Apart from cropping the edges it's unprocessed and I specifically put some of the white vinyl train in to see how that turns out. My light meter was reading f11 so that's what I ended up shooting but think I need to get it to f8, but didn't have the time.
So do you think I can get away with a 3rd light?
Would welcome any comments... but be gentle as it was my first rushed attempt.
I would say your light in the Hi-Lite is just a fraction low in power. It only needs upping slightly and you would get rid of that yellow shadow. Light position is also important, where did you have your lights positioned?
