ON STRIKE-a reminder of hardship.

We did a shoot the other night to commemorate all the people who went through the hardship of being ON STRIKE to lift the working conditions in many industries.
Set up info: D300 shooting tungsten WB. On Boom 2xSB600s triggered by PW with 2xCTO.Camera left low hand held SB24 double red gel. gels.Camera right and left 2xSB26 no gel to edge light the STRIKER.More on our blog site.
Here is the talent carrying the flag for the STRIKERS of all nations. Chris did a great job. The management of the factory didn't like us shooting from a public street towards their front gate. They sent a couple of guys over to stand in the shot ?????? Terrorists??? Chris stood his ground.

Here is the crew, some friends,some students from my PRO AM photography course.They were great too, they got to see me trying to be as friendly as possible whilst still trying to get the shot I wanted.....

Below is the best shot (in my view), I would have liked them to have all their lights on as well , they cast yellow and would of added to the atmosphere but they didn't come on UNTIL we were taking our gear back to the cars.
