WetLeather Motorcycle Rider Information

I ran into a really cool web site a while back and was just researching the techniques this guy uses.

He posts to dpreview.com in the Nikon D50/80 etc forum.  He won't reveal all of his techniques but I did come up with the following data -

Camera D80 Nikon, SB800 flash, 18-50 sigma lens, ISO400, f5.6, 1 sec-15th sec shutter speed.

He uses front current sync flash (goes off first) and drags/pans the camera a bit to get the blurred background/interesting light swirls.

He also uses a better bounce card  http://abetterbouncecard.com/  (video demo of how it works and how to make one for free)

I'm definitely going to try some of this out.

Might be something to play with at a WL event (cookoff).
