if you think it looks good, you should have heard it!

Couple shots of my friends Ferrari and GTR. Links to the full albums are below, or just click the shots

-Ferrari F430 Album-

-Nissan GTR Album-

And one of the GTR

ferrari shots feel cramped by the width of the road. to me, the GTR is your best image (of the ones you posted in the thread). maybe i'm just partial to GTR's tho

I agree.

For some reason the F430 seems abnormally long in the pictures, might have to do with the width of the road as HKY said.

Thanks for the CC guys.

Why did this thread die!? Time to revive it.

Random shot of our BMW 1M right before SEMA 2011.

reminds me of the star trek episode with the half black, half white guys...

GTHAUS · 11-17-2011, 08:58 AM

lol. It is different, and not for everyone, but people really seemed to dig it at SEMA. It's back to complete white now.

HKYStormFront · 11-17-2011, 02:20 PM

one of my recent fav's from autox:

fall color FTW

Parkerman · 11-17-2011, 09:03 PM

No call colors FTL =\

Went to the Smokey Mountains this weekend... Leaves are all gone.

HKYStormFront · 11-17-2011, 10:55 PM

still a good shot tho! i would have got down about 6" or so just so that fence post wasn't sticking out of your hood on the other side of the car, use the car to block it

Skeeterbop · 11-18-2011, 12:27 AM

Last 2 photos look great. Seeing that MR-2 makes me miss my old one. The way the 2nd Gen has aged is awesome. It looks just as good now as it did 20 years ago and doesn't look dated (well, minus the pop-up headlights).

lol well there is that too... i try to do everything i can in camera, makes life easier later.

here's some words of wisdom for all, call it my photo philosophy:

the devil in good photography is in the details. if you get your composition and settings right, you can still blow it by missing something in the details. get all 3 right and you are gold, every time.

next time you guys go to shoot, get your composition lined up, fine tune your settings the way you want them then just stop and look around. make sure there aren't stray leaves laying on the ground, larger rocks, stuff sticking out of the car from the camera's point of view, check your reflections on the car, etc. take one minute to get your composition, take 5 to walk around and make sure it's perfect. i guarantee there is something you didn't see at first. happens to me all the time. and to me, that is what makes a good picture excellent.

also, if you don't have a circular polarizer, think about which lens you use the most to shoot cars with and get a B+W brand one for it. they aren't cheap but they aren't much more expensive than the really cheap feeling ones. you'll thank me later

Yea, I know I need a CP, its on my list its just never made it up to the top.

I will generally try to look for all the details and get everything right in camera but this was a pretty quick. Took it on a turn off spot in Cades Cove with the family waiting on me... haha. So I didn't have the time to pour over the details.
