Team Shot

My first time doing anything like this. I know the setting is hella' boring, but I'm pretty happy with the lighting. Were some other things I would have tried out if I had the time.

I forgot to turn of auto ISO, so shot this as ISO 6400!! Man I am stupid.

Nikon D700 with Nikon 35mm f/2.0

Vivitar 285 in silver umbrella right and left, and Nikon SB-800 in umbrella behind them all.

Good picture! I'd be pleased if I was in the team having a picture that was different like this. For me would just like to see less burned out highlight on the floor in front of them, draws the eye and a bit distracting but overall good interesting picture...and to make it perfect it's a shame all the faces are not in the same mood, happy and smiling. But it is difficult to control everyone.

Tommy , interesting team shot, like the lighting behind them too.

Fantastic shot Tommy - the only things I'd change are things that could easily be edited. Now I know you're not a fan of editing but I had a quick edit to show you what i mean! Let me know if this offends you and I will delete it pronto and slap myself on the wrists

this picture could have easily ended up like thoses boring school photos but what you have done is brilliant and love how you did the lighting and made them stand out and proud !
if i was a parent of theses boys i would be pleased as punch !
well done !

Fantastic lighting, brillaint

Thanks guys! What did you do Azz? Pushed the contrast a bit? Looks good ;o) Don't see any other differences than that their faces are a little darker.

He's taken out the distractions of the background above their heads

^^what he said. Plus the red strap on the left hand side

Haha and I didn't even see =P
