This is my first attemp at posting. I have only had the camera a month or so now. I just enjoy shooting a bit here and there. Would probably enjoy it more if I took more time to learn. Let me know what you think.

Nice light on it. I'd like #4 best with a crop so it had some room to "move into".

Thanks for all the comments, it is a fun car!!!! I enjoy it every time I drive it.
Photosguy I agree about the crop I will see what I can do with it. The lighting last nice was pretty good although it was getting pretty dark when I took the shots, I wasn't sure how they would turn out. A few are pretty dark, (I didn't post them)!

although it was getting pretty dark when I took the shots, That's about the time I wait for, & sometimes I wait even longer than that. See this, & the links in it.

Good light. The interior shot is nicely done - very soft light and good clarity.

However, you're putting the car in the middle of the picture nearly every time and that's usually not as nice as when you offset it in some way (look up the "rule of thirds"). That's what PhotoGuy was getting at.

Move the car up or down and left or right to make the pictures more dynamic. Keep shooting and you'll get the hang of it quickly enough.

Good looking Pulse Red goat you got there, I have the same exact car!

Good shots I like #4 the most.

Thanks for all the comments and compliments. I see now what you were saying about the crop now that I read the linked articles. Total noob moment on the previous post!! Now I want to get out and take some more shots. I would love to get my wifes car in the shots too, but I am not sure about moving up to that large of a "object." She has an a4 avant black, but what the heck I have to try ti sometime.
