The beach shots are a little flat. I think I would like #4 the best if it weren't for the ricer angle. Good looking car though, it looks like it was well maintained!

I have seen recently a few shots of cars on beach and they looked awesome, so wanted to try. Asphalt is great, but time to try something else as well Canon 5D mk III, Canon 7D, Canon 24-70mm L f/2.8, Canon 70-200mm L F2.8 IS mkII, Canon 135mm F2 L, Canon 300mm F2.8 IS L ,Canon 17-40 mm F4 USM L, Canon 50mm F1.2

I don't use one 99% of the time. I'd rather find the right location & angle on the car. But that doesn't mean that you can't try one. It's just personal preference, except that I find that when I remove the bad reflections, I also lose some of the good ones. And polarizers usually make the late model headlight plastic covers & some windshields show a "rainbow", and I can do without that. FrankC - 20D, RAW, Manual everything...

I've always stated that I wil do those angles (ricer or whatever somebody wants to call them), because this is what I do, imo they are 100% better than standard straight level ones, as in my opinion that technicque describes the older generation photos aka old school stuff. #1 is the same as #4 with the same set up just straight line, therefore posted both! But cheers anyway!
