I took these i think last weekend or 2 weeks ago :lol: i can't remember. I figure id throw them up here to get some CC. It was harder than i thought, they were shot like mid afternoon. The light sucked, i need an nd filter of some sort to help. I'd like to have the backround more blurred out, but this is the best i could do. The white car was shot later in the day which is why i got more of the effect i wanted. Shot with Rebel xt w/ 28-135 IS lens

i was a little skeptical about posting up number 5, its a little over edited for my liking, but the owner liked it. So i cloned out the bridge, it could use more work on the clouds as i did it in like 10 mins. But yeah, let me know what you guys think. I shot a lot of pictures, i forget what i shot these at but the exif data should still be attached, i think they were at f/19-22.

Hmmm, a turbo or super charged IS-300!

Yes the last couple of shots show excessive shadow/highlight correction, I think, but hey if the owner of the car liked it, then why not!

I do like 1 & 3 myself.

Except for some nits with the backgrounds, I think they look good.
In 5v2, you left the pole reflections in the windows!

They are great cars, although mine isn't up to par with some of the locals lol. Sooner or later i will have monies to buy stuff.

It really varied, i left it it shutter priority and shot between 40-60

turbocharged, me, the guy with the red one and the owner of the car did the turbo install + thicker headgasket and arp headstuds, along with wiring in the haltec unit. It made 366rwhp and 360 ft. lbs of torque at 10psi.

yeah i know lol. I think with an nd filter i would be able to leave the aperature where i'd like it at around f6-8 so it.
Nice shots. What sort of shutter speeds did you use?

40-60, with it being so bright i didn't want to keep adjusting, i did it in manual and i messed up what could have been great shots because they were over exposed and i wasn't paying attention to the histogram. Aperature was around f/22 which is probably why most of the backrounds are still in focus rather than being blurred.
