A Roads Policing Unit Volvo V70 seen responding along Cowdray Avenue, Colchester behind a Land Rover Discovery. This later parked up in a side road during a hunt for a vehicle. A lot of action all in a small space of time.

Apologies for the poor quality. Forgot to pack my 50-200mm lens so had to make do with the 18-55mm.

See this photo for a behind-the-scenes view of the setup for this shoot.

Strobist/technical info:

This is a composite of a two-image focus stack. The cottage ornament was placed on a soft white mat. The background lights were created by light painting individually with the green, blue, and red LED's, respectively, of a Coast TX10 Quad Color flashlight onto an aluminum foil background over the span of a fifteen-second exposure. The foreground and subject were illuminated by two Nikon SB900 speedlights, both fired through Neewer 24" x 24" softboxes slightly above camera level. The first speedlight was placed 85-degrees CL and fired in Manual mode @ 1⁄16 power. The second was placed 80-degrees CR and fired in Manual mode @ 1⁄2 power.

The SB900's were triggered by three PocketWizard Plus X's.

Lens: Tokina AT - X M100 AF PRO D (AF 100mm f / 2.8 Macro)

This wind-up torch has been in our drawer for quite a while. It lights up during the winding process but will not charge so unless the user walks around constantly winding the torch it is useless. It has been in our drawer for over a year.

I did buy another one a while ago which now sits in my work bag.

Here I blocked out as much light as possible, set a 4 second exposure and used a burst of flash at the end with a red gel. The white balance was set to Incandescent as the LED's seem to be more daylight balanced so I could get it to show blue.

I took two exposures and blended them. The first was while I was winding it to light it up and the second was so I could erase all the distracting blur.

One of a handful of Essex Police Ford S-Max Dog Units. I believe this one is based at Sandon Dog Base, Chelmsford along with the Ford Mondeo next to it (EU11 FFW). It was seen here parked at Lakeside Bus Station, Thurrock.
