Ranger Quadra

Yesterday was the day of the Galway Strobist Meetup, organised by John Mac and yours truly. I made a decision to run with just the 2 head Elinchrom Ranger Quadra kit. I had intended bringing the 2 EL-Adaptors and using a range of modifiers with them. Except one of them was missing (I found it under a camera bad this evening).After driving around and around for ages, I eventually got parking a distance away from our meetup location. I'd nearly had enough by then, carting a fully laden camera bag (with laptop), the kit, a stands bag and softboxes up with me. Next time, I'll have someone wait at the door!Anyhow got up to the room. Nicer than I remembered, but still a little lacking in locations. John Mac commandeered one of the better locations and went to work with Zoe. I on the other hand went with new girl Kaila, who came via Folio 32. The quadras worked well, but I was really missing my grids, beauty dish and that second EL Adaptor.I borrowed a small softbox (one that happens to spring clip onto the Quadra's reflector) and got a working clamshell setup going.Later I also went with a shoot through umbrella and did a whole bunch of single light shots. I was happy enough with my work overall, but next time, I'll bring completely different stuff.. and mix in speedlights!
