So it's been a fun month of driving my JCW and breaking her in, when the rain decided to come back and ruin my fun. Stuck inside, I decided to try my hand at some light painting. I made a super craptastic softbox and used an equally crappy flashlight I got from the gas station and got to work in my very tight garage. Considering the 3 dollar flashlight in a cardboard box, I think it came out pretty nice. What do you guys/gals think? Any pointers/tips are welcome as this was my first try.

 

Nice shot!

 

Thanks!!

 

Awesome picture.

 

Any chance you have a high-res shot I can use as part of my desktop theme?

 

Here you go

Thanks!

 

Very nice!

 

Came out great!

 

Pretty darn good !!

Now... paint your garage floor black and do it again !

 

Haha thanks CR . Nothing a little photoshop cant fix.

 

But then you'd have to photoshop the lighting on the floor too and that wouldn't be as good as the actual effect from the lighting.

You definitely have a good eye for photography though !

 

Looks good. I'd say try without the flashlight. The softbox lighting and floor looks great. The airbrushed effect with the flashlight could easily be done in photoshop.

But again, the angle and overall lighting is excellent.

 

Awesome !

Thanks for the new desktop picture.
