Yea..they still need a bit of editing work, and I've got more to process. Generally hate shooting at car events because there is so much **** in the way that it ruins the shots...cars, people, trees, other crap..I prefer shooting at an off-site location so much more

Get your edit game on.

Look P+S status.

S4toSTI · 11-17-2008, 01:39 AM

Why post before you edit.

I did edit them...I'm looking for critique so I can edit them further based on that, like Matt said, they seem dark so I'll brighten them, etc.

Spocknasty · 11-17-2008, 01:47 AM

Here's a hint.

If you hit auto contrast, and the image changes dramatically....you have no idea how to edit.

Come on read your histograms, that's sloppy.

jspek · 11-17-2008, 02:35 AM

they are dark. the last pic drives me insane. i cant stand half'ed cars. its like putting a lambo on the grass to shoot it. grrrrrrr.

id like to see some shadow/highlight editing.

S4toSTI · 11-17-2008, 02:36 AM

Honestly i feel like they have composition but thats just me. Thats first and foremost worry about other stuff later.

YellowMSP · 11-17-2008, 09:10 AM

besides looking dark your white balance looks off in a lot of them, they look blue. did you set your custom white balance before shooting?

I did but I shot them in RAW+L so I can still change them a lot, just wanted to get some advice on what to do exactly because as James said, my editing game sucks

S4toSTI · 11-17-2008, 12:15 PM

Why would you shoot on raw+jpg????

So I wouldnt have to open up every single RAW file in PS to see what it was

S4toSTI · 11-17-2008, 12:28 PM

See they make this program called bridge or lightroom or aperature or anything that can view raw files without opening them in ps.

I don't think Mustangs are considered exotics, but unless thats a Shelby GT500, then its different. Nice pics btw.

a gt500 is not rare! a 2000 cobra R is exotic to a mustang! The saleens are pretty rare also!

Next thing you should buy is a hotshoe flash. Most of the shots are bland in color. Post processing can only do so much. Artificial lighting will allow you to expose the vehicle and add saturation while keeping the sky properly exposed.

YellowMSP · 11-17-2008, 07:43 PM

try this too if u don't have bridge or lightroom. i dont know what os you have but i use this on my windows xp whenever i shoot raw which is really rare, but it makes them show up as thumbnails raw thumbnail viewer
