Just wondering if it's really good technically speaking for the price you'd have to pay for it.

A friend of mine wanted some shots done so that she can submit them to a contest that Guess is having. We had a big car show the other day and she agreed to model for it, so afterwards we went and did a quick shoot to get some photos to submit. I haven't really gone through them yet, but here's a quick something I threw together this morning as a preview. I've looked at some of the photos that Guess uses, and I tried to emulate that in the shots and in the PP.

She's a great model, I love working with her. She's the GF of one of the guys in my club so she is at all of our shows, and she's been a model for other companies at other shows that we've been to.
Here's the rest from Sunday just in case you wanted to take a look... there's another model in there, but I've never worked with her before, and she hasn't done much modelling so the pics aren't as good, but she's really cute too. http://www.2k4civic.com/albums/carsh...amshadowfinals
Just for you Dan:

My brother in law recently acquired a light sphere for his D200
He shot some portraits and up close shots with it and it makes a big diference. Photos looked very evenly lit with no backgroung shadows
