Was a practice session so to speak, car was dirty but I wanted to still have a crack... my first car shoot really, so looking for honest feedback.

Hey Pete,

Awesome car my friend!

3 tips...

1. A car drives on a road, not on the grass. It'd be a lawn mower otherwise!
2. Leave the uber wide angle in the bag, distortion doesn't lend itself well to the awesome lines of a rado.
3. Calm the angles down a tad.

On the positive side though, they're dead sharp and lightings great. Lovely day today wasn't it!

The top of the car shouldn't merge with the horizon as in #1, & you might turn the wheel a bit.
You have pretty good light there. A little later would be better: A few Car Lighting Tips - Updated (http://photography-on-the.net/forum/showthread.php?t=70290)

Really really appreciate, still chuckling at number 1! I'll stick to my primes next time and come up with better locations before I head out. p.s. wish it was my car!

PhotosGuy: Thanks for the tips and tutorial!


One more for luck, less crazy and on a hard-ish surface :D
