Very nice! Always loved the cafe racer look.
Great shots and control of light, love them!
I like the first image a lot. Great lighting.
Very Cool! Care to share your lighting information?
Hi Chris Nigul
the first image was made in the studio and if i remeber it weel i uses a strip box on top to iluminate the top of the bike.
For the image 2, 3 and 4 i used a single speedlight...yep a small canon flash... that day we were suposed to shoot the bikes moving...on the road, and using the sun light...but at the last minute one of the drivers couldnt make it...so at the last minute i had no lights, no place to shoot and no backup plan...
i only had the cam, the lens and one speedlight...so i had to find a place and i had to shoot the bike with the tools i had... i used the flash to light paint the bikes...i hade the cam at the tripod so at post i had to combine the light from all images... at the end it camo out ok. :-)
the bike on the boxe gym (image number 5) i used 2 stripbox, on the sides and one octabox in front.
the last image was made with 4 speedlights one at eatch side, one for the front and one for the back wall
;-)
Thanks for the reply. A friend of mine is getting a 2014 Road Glide and asked me to photograph it. "Maybe you could take a few pictures of it?" he said, and now I have my mood board up and running, but it's not fully complete yet.
Very cool shots, I like 'em!
