Photos - would love some feedback

I like most of these. I like the rear shot of the porsche turbo but I'm not to keen that you can see those other cars in the shot. You could PS that out.

 

Very NICE!!

 

the first one is awesome.

 

Agree, love the one of the Porsche Turbo. Great angle to show the lines. Nice work.

Excellent shots!

 

Great shots.

Bending down and getting on a horizontal level with the car works better than standing 6 feet in the air looking downward at an angle. Yeah, background is everything, too.

You're great at finding angles and curves which appeal to the enjoyment of the cars.

My favorite is the Fiat 500 with the Lambo.

 

They look nice.... Looks like a bit of post-processing, no? How much Pshop work?

 

well some of them have slite and i meen slight editing ,
but some are HDR shots such as the columbia mall and the blue f430

 

Did the sky over the Columbia Mall REALLY look like that or is it enhanced? Pretty wild looking!

 

Nice stuff, man. Real crisp, clear. That black Turbo looks insane.

Is that a Ruf GT3? There's a blue one here in Nashville almost identical to it...it's in the Nashville Spottings thread in the south/central section...

 

Very nice! What are you shooting with?

Shiny Side Up!

Best shot is the building. Where is it??????

 

The roof of the Mall in Columbia, MD.

 

thanks guys
im shooting with a nikon d80 18-135mm
and yes the sky really did look like that but it was an HDR shot i took, so thats why theres soo much color and lighting.

 

Looks amazing!

 

isn't hdr a processing technique? can you "take" and hdr shot?

 

It can be accomplished both ways. To do a "real" HDR you just use the bracketing feature and take a picture at +2,-2 and 0 exposure or you can add +1 and -1 as well. Then you use a program like Photomatrix to combine them and do tonal mapping. You can also use a single RAW and change the exposure after the fact in PS and then go from there. I have tried a couple and they were not that great.

 

there's tons of ways to do it. and for some shots you may have to take say 5 or 6 pictures to combine together to get the results you wants.
i have been shooting in this way for a little bit now.
the multiple shots method is the way to go for say scenic shots but for cars ive found that the single RAW or JPEG method works best.
as you can see with the columbia mall and the blue F430.
