Pics look sick Kevin

 

nice rides..

hmm, it may be a BIT due to my work's LCD calibration, but as a fellow advanced amateur photographer, it seems like the 2nd, 3rd, 5th, n 6th shots are a bit underexposed.. ? I would guess caused by your camera's evaluative metering overcompensating exposure to prevent clipping the overhead lights.. but since your subjects are the cars, you should just adjust exposure higher towards the first shot to bring out as much detail lost in the shadows, especially in the 2nd and 3rd shots of the dark blue G.. anyway, just a suggestion.. great shots!.. i'd be glad to help tweak the shots if you're not all that great with post-processing..

Out of curiosity, what DSLR and wide angle you using?

 

Thanks Gamedog.


TIMMAY, I forgot to mention... I can easily properly expose these pictures, but I tried something new with #s 2-6. I went for a "darker" mood. *shrug* lol.
You're definitely right, they are underexposed, but that's what I was going for. I think what I tried to do works much better for light colored cars since I lost some detail in G37Rider92649's 37. Thanks for the critique.

I used a Nikon D80 and a Tokina 11-16mm f/2.8.

 

Ah.. yeah, I considered it might be photographer's intent for mood, but just wanted to mention it in case.. hmm, if your car is the white one, I guess you're not as sad you clipped detail in G37Rider's hahaha

thanks for sharing..

 

The white G35 does not belong to me. It belongs to member "dranom"; I'm not entirely sure if he's on these boards, but he's definitely on G35Driver.

 

2 pretty sweet g's. nice pics.

 

Thanks w0ady.

Sometimes I forget that you have a 37 now.

 

i really like number 1 4 and 5. Although its hard, because you have a dark coloured car and quadbike thing in the photo as well, i think that the darker photos could do with a bit more curves adjustments, otherwise it just looks underexposed. number 6 coulda done with an extra light lighting up the side of the car closest to the camera. but otherwise, awesome stuff

 

Both G's looks fantastik! Esp. the White/Gold one, I love the combo!

 

Looks very good!

 

Thanks, guys.

^ O.o I think you may have something with curves... I'll go play with that when I get some time later today and see what happens.
Thanks!

 

Yes, curves adjustment.. you can still keep a dark tone to the photos but bring out more detail in the blue G..

 

Very nice pics. Love your 35 by the way. Any more of the front bumper on the 37?

 

Wh0oa, thx for postin Kevin!!! Hit me up when youre back down in SoCal man!

 

Thanks. You might not have seen it, but this IP G35 with gold Volks doesn't belong to me, so I can't take credit for it; it belongs to member "dranom."

I looked around and found this picture I took of G37Rider's front bumper @ HIN:


My pleasure. Will definitely let you know when I'm back in town.
