Default Corvette motion shots

Here are my first shots with my new Canon XSi.

For those that do a lot of this stuff, I'd appreciate feedback.

Just discovered this forum too, what an awesome community!

It's actually a Lingenfelter C6, not a Z06

ok well double the BLASPHEMY! I was wondering why the hood looked a bit odd lol, wonder if it's the 427 twin turbo version?

Good ones. A tighter crop might put more emphasis on the car.

The rear panels of a Z06 were added to this car to accommodate larger tires (needed traction).

That's funny, my favorite one is #4

nice car... terrible lighting conditions... that harsh sun light on its rear makes the back end look a bit lift from the light underneath it. try in a slightly darker time of day.


oh and some EXIF data would be great to read

Love the car - right colour too

Shot 1 would be good if you cropped in a little and it didn't have the road sign and its shadow.

Shot 2 may be a tighter crop from the bottom and the right.

Shot 3 the distant hill spoils this one for me as it doesn't look right with your pan.

Shot 4 needs a tighter crop and losing the fence and the wires.

Of them all shot 1 is my favorite.

Oh this is new to me. What's EXIF? Will Photoshop embed that info into files?

My fav is #1, but I really hate that hood on that car. I know its somewhat inevitable with the s/c strapped to the top of that badboy, but still.. it looks like **** IMHO
