My latest and greatest night time photoshoot!!!!
 
i just took these pics about an hour or so ago and i think they came out very good. i'm starting to get the hang out doing night shots. a very long shutter speed, a tripod, and a 2 second self timer(to make sure your hands are not on the camera pressing the bottom and slightly shaking the camera). please give me your comments on both the car and the photography itself. thanks and enjoy....

I don't know jack about photography but I think they look pretty good. What did you use to tint your tails?

Some nice shots but ... https://i111.photobucket.com/albums/...q/IMG_1592.jpg

That is by far the best one!

very nice

instead of angling the camera so it looks like the car is going uphill, tilt it the other way to make the car appear to be going downhill...it gives the illusion of speed...and good job angling the camera...it makes the pic more interesting

also, it helps to divide the camera view into a tic-tac-toe board...put the car in one of the intersections of the imaginary tic-tac-toe board...the eye tends to be drawn to that part of the photo...i dont know why...it's something that is always taught though

keep a simple background to avoid the eye from being taken away from the tC, we know we dont want that

and, like in your last pic, leave room for the tC to "move" across the photo in a forward direction...it gives the illusion of movement in a still picture

i took four years of photo/design classes in high school...kinda nerdy, but it works. You may not realize it at first, but it's all in your subconscious mind. weird i know

i agree 100%. when i saw that pic load onto my computer from my camera i said the same thing.

oh and for lilwil i used the vht nightshades and a lot of clear and buffing and polishing. they shine like mirrors.

STNC 08-30-2007 03:28 AM

yea thats what i figured.

i have just the RS-1 carbon fiber front lip. i don't know what i'm gonna do with the sides and rear yet, if anything at all. maybe i'll get the rest of the kit but have it painted flint mica to match the rest of the car.
