K100D Strobist Ferrari

K100D Strobist Ferrari · 02:38 AM

Here's a photo of a 360 Spider using my K100d Super and 18-55 and an off camera Minolta flash. Hope you like it...

So the photo above is actually 3 layered shots. Each shot was a 15 second exposure. This gave me time to run round the car with my bare strobe in my hand (so to speak) and fire it at strategic places. The orange glow from the left of the photo is a street light. I layered those 3 shots in photoshop. Cloned out a telegraph pole and adjusted the curves a touch.

My 100D was a factory refurb. That's a £189 camera with a £20 flash from eBay :-)

Appreciate all your kind comments.

I love the shot. Not sure about the glowing tree to the left (a bit of a distraction) but otherwise a great image.

Correct!

I "feel" I don't "need" to... but I "know" I "want" to

Very impressive! And very creative as well....
