2 and 3 are my favorites :)

the Z in #6 looks a bit squished :(

[kaitanium]

#4 is dramatic! ive been a fan of your stuff and now continue to be! keep up the work! some of these HDR by any chance?

[e r y k]

thanks guys :)

yes kaitanium, 3 and 4 are HDR's. i just had to with the beautiful cloud overhead :D

Charles Richards what do you mean the Z looks squished?

With the environment in #5, it seems that the highlights on the body should be better?

[Bob Tilton]

Very nice! Please tell us more about technical execution, thought process and post processing.

[DVS_WiNdz]

[Matt Peters]

#4 is an awesome shot!

Nice pics man, i remember seeing your pics over at CRSX :P

photosguy - what do you mean? i HDR'ed for the sky mainly, then overlayed a properly exposed picture of the car to subdue some of the HDR effect on the car since im not really a big fan of HDR.

bob - whatcha wanna know? thought wise, ive been shooting cars for a while, although im not the best at it, practice makes perfect :) PP depends on what i want to bring out on the car, i usually process each pic differently. i usually dont HDR much unless the sky is really nice or if there is a lot of dynamic range in a picture.

dvs & p33we - thanks :)

obey - lol i guess the guy i shot it for posted it there... CRSX is a forum i take it?

3 is just epic. Great shots.. and that model is hot; post more pics of her =P

[Doogiekr]

I really like 3 and 4, but all are good :)

[BenJammin]

2 and 3 for me, I think in 3 I would of put the space in front of the supra instead of behind. Just my opinion though.

Very Professional picture's good job..

If you live in Canada i can hook you up for a Maserati MC12 shoot :) im serious!!

[e r y k]

VorteC - hehe thanks, im gonna try to get her out for modeling shots once i get a second flash :)

Doogiekr - thanks :)

BenJammin - too late :( the car is shipped out to Hawaii with the owner. However, there is another local with almost an identical looking supra :D

MLphoto - ah man, that would be so awesome :P I used to live in Canada, and I still visit over xmas / summer at times :D

I have to plead ignorance. I did not know what "HDR" meant until tonight which was the most appealing part of your imagery. The timing of how this went down is funny because I shot this picture(s) last night and merged the exposures using layer masks. I guess I just wasn't using the "HDR" route.

So thanks for posting your pics, making me ask "how did he do that?", and encouraging me to get behind the viewfinder. You're on my radar.
