i haven't shot with strobes, but i'd say try and keep the strobe itself out of the picture, or not as prominent.
but fisheyes are fun to mess around with for sure

Maybe when you post you should put spaces in between the pics so there not all bunched together, other then that there are some really sick pics.

1st one especially

I like your first one a lot. It could possibly be a good entry for this weeks photo contest (subj. is leading lines)
Good work on the other ones, and yes, like the others said, keep the strobes out of the pic.

yeah you definitely have some hot spots from your strobes in a few. if they are already at 1/4 power i guess move em back or diffuse em with something.

and its always nice to keep your strobes out of the picture, but if you cant really, oh well.

but all in all really sick.

Super legit! But like mentioned if you're going to have shots with the strobe in them, try and only do that in one or two pictures because then it gets boring, nice to see someone doing something different for once though!
