Photography LabTHIS SPACE OPEN FOR ADVERTISEMENT. YOU SHOULD BE ADVERTISING HERE!
A place to display digital masterpieces, enhance photography skills, photoshop, and share photo tips with one another...
And the new 10 dollar light box I got in China is in the background. It's an awesome piece to replace my homemade one (it was falling apart. Damn cardboard) and for the price is no brainer.
Sry for the shallow DOF, I was too lazy to go down to the basement for my speedlights...
another windy, sideways rain,cold crappy day, so i decided to go to the worst place possible, ocean side @ Horseshoe Bay. stupid. frozen fingers, wet gear, hat flying across the road, haha!
Just got back from Vegas for the RE/MAX International conference I was asked to speak at. Went out with my camera one night for some shots and took a quick pic of my room at the Mandalay Bay.
Photo of my room
great height of camera and glad to see you lined the parallels perfectly straight.
a tip for your lighting setup; you can achieve the same result with 1 flash by bouncing it straight up in the ceiling + pulling up the catch light reflector. If you want a bit more natural light, bump to a lower shutter and fill in with the flash pointed behind you 45 degrees angled up. 3 flashes for that image is overkill, not to mention your flash into the black TV screen doesn't do anything.

Actually if he when for a ceiling bounce with the bounce card there would be a hotspot on the ceiling and in the window reflection. the extra flashes were a bit excessive.
It could have easily been done with 2 lights as its a basic square bedroom. if the door behind the camera could have opened it would be perfect to bounce a light into that top corner of the room to get a nice bright and soft light spread into the room. The bounce off the closet added just enough light to throw some extra highlights into the room.
I'd say its light rather well and the view of the strip was captured nicely
