GT Haus Widebody M3

[wfarrell4]

I finally got around to editing these to my liking. My CS5 skills have improved greatly since I took these in July. Jeremy Cliff was nice enough to let me shoot the car while he was shooting it early one summer morning during sunrise.

Please excuse the different lighting, it was all natural light and it was quickly changing, as was the location of the car. Furthermore, the haze in the air helps the backdrop Chicago skyline appear artificial.

Open to any and all critique, even bad.

Have at it:

4. The lighting was simply magical in this one - the car is SO white.

Good ones. A little separation between the wing & the building in #3 would have been nice?

[djdino]

fabulous! Great look M3 too! Brake ducts reminds me of the Testarossa

I didn't notice that until now. Do you think the more "centered" crop would look awkward?

Thanks for the kind words, djdino.

Do you think the more "centered" crop would look awkward? I prefer more room at the front for the car to "move into".

Does it really have different coloured wheels on left and right sides, or is it just a trick of the light ?
Pc 3 right side seems silver, others are looking orange/bronze.

Yes, different colored wheels.

This looks a lot like Jeremy Cliff's shooting style, i really thought he took these!

[Clayton G]

Love the car, light, and processing but I just don't know how If eel about the comps. They are all a bit tight or cramped feeling to me. #1 is my favorite.

[nmcqueen469]

I think #1 is the best. Beautiful location and great light to work in!

Maybe try cropping out the tree and removing the yellow paint from the curb, the paint seems a little distracting to me.

[SeanBradford]

#2 would be my favorite, but it is cropped a little to tight... good shots overall though!

Jeremy? Is this you?

Jeremy? Is this you?

Did you read the first line?

[jeremycliff]

Nice shots Will! The last one came out really nice! Congrats on the Jalopnik feature as well!

Nope, mine are on my Flickr though :)

Jeremy? Is this you?

No sir, I met Will while out shooting the car though. Cool guy.

[Drewc2010]

This car is great. Good shots do it justice!

[bstyleZ]

Did you read the first line?

I did indeed. I was simply adding on to the "looks similar to jeremy's shooting style" comment. When I first saw these shots on Flickr I thought it was him also.

The sky is a little too blue for me. Was the blue sky PP'd in?
