Nice shot. I have used worklights at dusk but not strobes. What power were your strobes set at for this shot?

[Mike]

Good question - I realized after the recording that I didn't disclose that the flashes were on 1/1, AKA full power. That's one of the limitations of using small flashes to light up big objects - they need to be blasted and they need to be close. If you have a bunch of them, you can bring them back a little and zoom the flash-head in, but only if you have a large group of flashes.
