Hot girls and dirt bikes!


With a combination of a hot girl, dirt bike, and a beautiful sunset in your viewfinder, you can't miss!

Obtaining the correct exposure for this type of shot can be tricky. However, with a little practice you'll get the hang of it. The real challenge in these situations is adjusting for the constant changing of light.

First, meter for the ambient light and set your strobes to that aperture. Remember, the aperture controls the power of your strobe, and the shutter speed controls the ambient light. Underexpose the ambient light by raising the shutter speed on your camera. This will increase the saturation In the sky and vollah, you'll have your shot.

Hasselblad H4D-40 with 50-110mm lens at 70mm
