.: Audi S3 :.

[Spoolin]

Here is a shoot from last month I did for Top Gear Magazine Australia.
Automotive photography is all a bit new to me, but I have always had a passion for cars... so hopefully there will be more to come.

#1 and #3 are money... They are my favorite shots. New to car photography and already doing rig shots? nice!

Can we have pictures of #3 before you edited it? Thanks.

[RyanM]

what type of editing did u do in #1?

[Caspita]

Beautiful shots, number one is just an amazing photo. Curious as to how much is to to the lighting, and how much is do to the processing. Number 2 seems to have just a tad bit too much dead space for my liking on top. Number 3 is nice, and as for number 4 I think i would like it more if you removed the reflection of the S3.

Knew your work looked familiar, just had to take another look at your website to verify....beautiful work on your site.

Amazing shots, Audi sure has some nice looking cars out right now, I love their use of white LEDS in the headlights on most of the new models.

I really like 2. In 4 you can see where you used a squirt bottle to spray the car with water. Very nice images.

#3 looks like a pan shot... Wonderful shots for being new to car photography!

[900spg]

Fantastic images! The color and creative makes them really stand out.

#1 is baddd (in a good way)!

[KenTT]

Really like these, especially the low angle in the last shot.

The BG in the first shot is a little distracting though, but love the lighting.

number one looks excellent an almost complete lighting... but... isn't there a better perspective then that?

[PhotosGuy]

isn't there a better perspective then that? You never know what an editor is going to pick. ;)

Good work!

[LuisDubPhotos]

nice shoots...
like #3

[ProjektSol]

badass shots!!
i love topgear too

[Deanphoto]

Chris, these are lovely! I've seen your work before but I cannot for the life of me remember where.

First one is really nice however, either my eyes are deceiving me or, the car is shot from slightly off centre making it looked skewed? Could be the wide angle I guess!

Second is absolutely stunning and my fav of those that you have posted.

Third is awesome, look at those colours pop! I should really invest in a longer rig, you've got length!

Fourth is the most 'medioker' of the set but not in a bad way, comp and lighting are spot on...as usual!

I take it you're diffusing the flash?

[Jamie Holladay]

Nice work.

[chester_hongkong]

Awesome, would love to know more about the setups/editing used.

You must not be too "New" as those photos are amazing.

[Padrino]

Amiazing images. I dream with taking images like that...

[Welby]

Thanks Corzy.
Sorry, allot of money and time went into the rig, so I would like to keep it quiet!

what type of editing did u do in #1?

There was a little bit of work on the background and a separate exposure for the lights.

Beautiful shots, number one is just an amazing photo. Curious as to how much is to to the lighting, and how much is do to the processing. Number 2 seems to have just a tad bit too much dead space for my liking on top. Number 3 is nice, and as for number 4 I think i would like it more if you removed the reflection of the S3.

The background in the first shot drops off in print allot.
