Cyclist in the dark

Last week I also made this portrait of my brother-in-law on his racing bike. This is what you can do with two off-camera flashes in the dusk in autumn.

Setup: Low angle camera position. One flash on camera right with CTO gel, another flash on camera left with a CTB gel, both on 1/4 power to keep the flash short to freeze the motion. Then in post processing I darkened the trees and added more blue in the background. Also made the bike pop out by working on the details.
