L39 Albatros & Lorinser Mercedes CL550 Photoshoot - 7 images

[notbland]

The full series is posted in the Mercedes section, but there's an entirely different kind of appeal in this section of the site, so I felt it was worth posting again. Commissioned shoot with a privately owned L39 Albatros jet in southern Georgia. One of my favorite series to date. Hope you enjoy it. 1. 2. (The title refers to the car's low drag, but I kinda like to think they're about to have a drag race, too.) 3. 4. 5. 6. 7.

Great work! Awesome rides. Beautiful setting. How'd you get the red effect? LEDs?

Thanks! That's actually a composite of ten photos taken from the same angle, just moving my lights around to achieve different results. The red comes from firing my strobes into red gels behind the car, and again behind the plane, bouncing it off the walls.
