Strobes left and right front. Non diffused which I will correct next time around. Still turned out great I think.

I like the feel of this shot, lots of texture in it.

Looks nice and the car really pops off the background ;)

Thanks PhotosGuy

Here is a non-crop shot.

Thoughts?

Here is a non-crop shot. Thoughts?
1. It would be easier if you turned on "Image Editing OK" in your Sig. There's an easy way to set this in your User Control Panel under EDIT PROFILE

2. Just the usual: what is it about the empty space on the left that you like? Are you saving it for ad copy? Is there a good reason to frame the shot less dynamically so the car doesn't have room to move into?
Most of these guys crop that way because they saw it in a magazine where room was left for type.

I don't mind creative cropping IF you have a reason for it OR it makes the car look better. For this shot, as a "car shot", I'd remove about 60% of the unimportant stuff.
