I really like the last two. The lighting really accentuates the 8's creased and curvy body panels!

#1 is nice, but too much blur for most veiwers. I like it though.

The last three are nice, I like them all... What lighting setup are you using? Obviously using pocket wizards or skyports to get that kind of distance from the lights.

Very nice shots!

What were you shutter speed set at for the rig shots?

thanks for the comments. i only use bare flashes triggered by pw's. 1st flash lights up rear panel, 2nd flash front panel, and a 3rd to light up the front bumper/hood. the key is to get down low and dirty. the exposure times for #1 was 4 secs since it was getting dark and #2 was 2 seconds.
