Nissan 200sx - With strobes

[Dal]

Meet up with some mates on saturday night to get some shots of one of their cars.

Some of these were taken by myself and some by my friend Ryan as we were trying out the off camera flash so all of these are with his camera. He has said that he wants C&C aswell. However, I have marked the images that I took and the ones that he took, so feel free to only comment on mine if you feel thats best.

My shots were taken with a Sigma 70-200mm f2.8 and Ryan's were taken with his Sigma 10-20.

All the images were processed by myself.

Dal, sorry mate but I love Ryan's shots. No offence to yours but the lens flare (whatever it is called when the shot goes bendy) really makes them

I think you mean barrel distortion right I agree, Ryans shots also fill the frame which I quite like.

It could be just me (or my monitor) but they also look a tad dark...

think so

Thats fair enough Matt, I'm not a massive fan of barrel distortion myself although it can work and Ryan's shots have worked really well. Cheers for the response.

Someone else said to me that the pics looks a little dark so I'm guessing it's probably my monitor that needs sorting out. Thanks for the comment.

Ryan's for me too! Sorry mate!

They all look a little dark to me as well. I have to say I prefer the wider shots too. I reckon your 70-200 wasn't really the lens to use in this case.

I'm not too sure whether the overhead lights really add to the shot either, especially with the contrast in temperature between the strobes and the tungsten lights above.

Sorry Dal but I've seen better off you in the past mate

That last pic is fantastic, the neverending effect with the lights really finishes if off. Stunning car too!
