how did you setup this shot? were you firing the light right at the car or did you use an umbrella? ---

could be because your light is too focused on the car. maybe with an umbrella it’ll soften it up and spread it out more? I’m trying to learn more on nikon flash photography so if i’m telling lies tell me haha ---

lol well it all depends on the look your going for. If you are trying to fill it out better than bouncing light is a good way to have an even spread i was trying to get this look and not the even spread if i was trying that i would go indoors like a car garage to use the roof or walls to bounce light [Next page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/shooting-some-pics-cooooooool/130553.md?page=2)
