In a photo like this, I am curious how the four lights were set up. Can you explain how and why?
Thanks in advance.
Jim Saunders said:I make no claim to expertise but at this point in my life I'm happy with this one. I would trade a klondike bar for a 1Dx that syncs at 1/1000 without using HSS though...

I like the way you got light onto your subjects; I haven't figured out how to get shots like that in sunlightJim....

The Forum converts the images to PNG, but they suffer. I try to link mine directly from SmugMug so no uploading happens.
I took some shots of our local Inland Grange trail riders again last Saturday. I've done it every Fall since 2010. I shoot the images when the riders are heading out at 10 AM, take them home and do a little cropping and adjustment of lighting, then print them on 4 X 6 photo paper, and have them back for the Grange when the riders return at about 12:30. The grange sells them for $5 each which goes into their operations. We live out in the country where the grange system is still going strong, community members all pull together to support each other. Rather than bog the thread down with a lot of images, you can see them here:
