Thanks Jul

The 350Z is a project car for MPG Motorsport that is getting a twin turbo kit put on this week as well as a crap load of other things (Wide body kit, new paint, wheels, coilovers, brembo brakes, etc., etc.)

the profile shot of the bmw would be so bamf if there was a touch more light on the wheel.

RichK · 03-23-2009, 04:42 PM

All are nice shots. I'm not a fan of "showroom shots", but that's just me. The second shot is my pick. Rolling shots look so good when done right.

YellowMSP · 03-23-2009, 07:26 PM

i like numbers 4 and 5, nice shots. on the rolling one you could probably take some of the blue out from in the shadow of the car up front and maybe a little in the paint of the car

Shots look great! Its nice to come on here and see the decent shots, because I sit at a computer/printer all day at work and print the most atrocious pictures...

I agree. Didn't really plan that shot. I was taking a wide angle shot of the three cars that were there and liked how the light was hitting the wheel. So I put on my telephoto lens and took a few shots.

Yeah the "showroom shots" are pretty boring, even though they are super nice cars. I would've loved for them to take the LP-640 out back so I could shoot it with my 70-200, haha. But that wasn't going to happen.

Thanks.

Yeah I probably should take some blue out of the shadow areas. You think the paint looks too saturated?

now that you mention it, the paint on the bimmer does look a bit too saturated, almost dirty. unless it is dirty, then im just retarded.

i dont know what color that paint really looks like but im guessing its a black. i usually just dont like blue tones in cars that arent blue so i bring them down. im guessing also that it was a single file hdr because of that shadow detail color and how it looks like it may have added a little bit of noise. haha i could be wrong about any or all of that but i gave it a shot and heres a quick edit of what i was talking about with the blues

edit: pic taken down since it was wrong color haha

I know what you're saying and if it was a black car I would've taken out most of the blue and cyan. Car is blue though.

Image is also a single file HDR that's why there's some noise.

YellowMSP · 03-23-2009, 10:09 PM

haha i thought it may be blue so i guess only the shadow needed a little work. still nice shots though
