Well after I smashed my truck (http://photography-on-the.net/forum/showthread.php?t=282911) the wife made me promise not to get another one. She said they (high powered pickups) are just to dangerous. So I decided to get a laid back sedan (V8 290 Horse!).

any post processing to this shot? the DOF looks slightly out of line with the foreground, i.e. it's almost too OOF for the clarity up front in the car. I could be wrong though. Either way, nice shot. The car pops off the image.

Nice. But with all the time you spend here, you still turned the front wheel in the wrong direction? :D

What direction are the wheels supposed to be turned? I never shoot autos, so I have no clue.

Usually the rim of the tire is more interesting than the tread so you turn it so the rim portion is well exposed.

1) I cannot stand fake "blur". Next time use proper technique to achieve real "bokeh".

2) Wheel is turned the wrong way. It should be turned the opposite direction.

3) Watch your reflections, the trees being reflected are really distracting. you can always remove them via Post Proc though.

4) You did a good job exposing a black car though. Hope that helps.

PS: Just realized you didn't ask for C&C. Sorry for being a tad harsh. Nice car!
