I really like the shots but i'm not a fan of the overexposed lights/headlights. A composite shot and/or using fill flash on the car could help. other than that I really like them

[djthemac]

I like the first and the last shot, however the last shot looks like it has a bit of an uneven horizon.

[be_good]

^ yea my tripod isn't the greatest

[bjyoder]

The first shot is probably the best. In a few of the others, you have poles and buildings growing out of the top of your car. It seems like you were out to showcase the Chicago skyline more than your car, and the car got in the way.

keep brining the c&c i am learning allot

I like #1 best also.
Is that at the Whole Foods in the South Loop?

You have some good ideas there, but I prefer shooting a little earlier.

you right. but i love to shoot late as hell. when you can park your car in the middle of a malls entrance and not worry about being hit.

I like the photos and nice car. What location is this? I have been wanting to get a shot of my car with the Sears Tower in it.

[be_good]

also i couldn't tell you where i was. i fallowed a friend there. i'm from Woodstock about an hr out. so i am not up to date with the surrounding

[jdmoto]

woodstock huuh... I live in Crystal Lake :D

as far as shotting goes. the first one out the group is the best, but still need more work. I would of shot it landscape to get a better show the background more. Maybe would of spun the car the other way, to keep the flow of the wired lines. i dunno just my 2 cents.

^take any classes at mcc?

[i_am_hydrogen]

Try taking these shots while there's still some blue in the sky. It'll make the buildings pop.

[Caspita]

I like the idea of most of these shots, but it seems to me that the car seems underexposed in all of your pictures. Might have to bring the camera down a couple of stops. Good location too, and nice ride. Is that the nismo front bumper?

[be_good]

its the aerosync bumper the nismo was fiberglass an thats no good.

[Christopher.Sullivan]

[mogearnotalent]

That would be at whole foods, a hot spot for gettin photos these days, renta cops generally don't like the picture taking there:
