Photographing plain glass with 2 flashes?

my niche is translucent subjects like glass, water et cetera for example........

to get a white BG and light the glass you have the flash behind a difusion panel which is behind the glass, on the sides out of frame you use black reflectors which will add definition to the glass, if you want more light use white reflectors at the front to the side of your camera out of view,

sounds easy takes alot of training and practice to do well,

Since you only have two flashes, try using mirrors or reflectors to compensate. You can pick up some little mirrors at Hobby Lobby for super cheap.

Thing is though, the key with shooting reflective things is really the shape of the light source.

So your options are...

Find some way to shape the light coming from your flashes into nice long rectangles. If you're on the cheap, cardboard duck tape and cloth actually work decently for this. (If you need to stop motion, or if you are shooting in a bright area, this is your only option.

If you're in a dark room where you can control the light, fluorescent tube lights from the sides and a soft light source from the top would be beautiful.

Or you can paint it with a single constant light source. If your movements are smooth enough, that can be a great way to make consistent smooth lines on a reflective surface. I shot this with that technique using a stripbox made out of cardboard: http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=35400135468...

Good luck!

raybanchina.net is a nice site...

Depends on what you want to achieve..

Because of the transparency, sometimes one light can create a more dramatic effects. try one and both.......what position.....if you are using a dslr.....just spray and analyze.. and please don't pray , it doesn't works.
