It’s always good to have a brother that has gold, curly hair, like any surfer would want to have as he runs down a beach with board in hand… Anyways, Seth was subject to a quick test run for the new Elinchrom Ranger Quadra’s I procured yesterday. These little (and I mean little) lights can punch out some light! I’ll post a more thorough review later, after I’ve had more than a few shoots with them (just finished with a shoot where I used them with some bigger units, and they came in dang handy), but right now, they are looking like the ideal lighting setup for 80% of my work! If you’re in to portability, then this is it!

These are just a couple test/fun shots we played with yesterday. The top photograph was with a 39″ Elinchrom Rotalux Octa camera left with a shoot-thru umbrella back and camera right. The bottom photograph is the Rotalux Octa actually behind Seth, and the umbrella turned the other way around, camera left. Color in Lightroom 2 (Lightroom 3 beta is cool, but there are a couple export issues I want to conquer first before running a lot of photos through).

More to come!
