Looking for the perfect beat setup shot

Garage parties... man remember those. I feel like I should be in electric boogaloo or chasing Spit down the tubes for taggin' my stuff... watch out for that electrical 3rd rail! So what better way for me relive this than photographing me doing the shuffle in the garage! <-- yeah every sane person thinks that :P

 

I really wanted to focus on the hands for this shot so I placed a snoot/grid on my 430EX to restrict the light to this area. In addition I placed a snoot on a 580EX II to highlight an old pair of cans I had lying around and I threw in a iPod for good measure.

 

Somebody say RAMON!

 

Strobist info:

1 480EX 1/8 power 1/4 CTO snoot/grid high camera right aimed at hands

1 580EX II 1/4 power 1/2 CTO snoot far camera left aimed at studio cans and iPod shuffle

 

Completed shot can be found here.
