Nice lighting and framing on the full car shots - not a big fan on the over processed #7 & 8.
#2 is super - why not clone out the bottom left corner and black item on the floor - right on #6?

Thanks for the input. #7 and 8 I'm still up in the air about, I think I really like #7, and #8 was a "what the heck" kind of shot, I like it, but I'm pretty sure if somebody else did a shot like that I'd probably not be a fan of it.


#6 was a "Let's process a shot and not think about what we're doing" type of shot; the whole time I was doing it I kept thinking to get rid of the fender in the left corner and my camera bag on the right, and didn't do it. I just haven't gone back for a redo yet. Most of the time little stuff like that doesn't bug me if the car comes out the way I want.

#6 & 2 are tilted, & I think #17 in your gallery looks better.
Nice coverage of the shop, & nice other shots in the gallery, too.

Thanks.

#2 and #6 are supposed to be tilted, I'm funny like that. If it's a bother, just tilt your monitor, and maybe have a beer or two, things will straighten out nicely then. As for #17, you sure you counted the right one, #17 is a shot of the engine, and is actually kinda boring if you want to know the truth.

I guess I didn't.

Well now I want to know which one you were talking about, don't leave me hanging!!


Here's a redo of #7...

Maybe it was Voodoo Larry 014.

Ah, #14, like that one a lot, except I think it's too "blue". I changed the color temp after I uploaded it and didn't upload the new version. Which version do you think is better, the newer warmer version or the original version?

Generally, I tend to like warmer over cooler, but in a case for a client, I'd try to remain true to the color of the paint.

My preference is towards color too, my general workflow for cars is always towards making the car look like it's supposed to, but that particular shot overall just looked too blue to me. This was a preliminary shoot so I didn't spend a lot of time shooting, just wandered around and shot the shop. Next times out things will be a bit more structured, and shots will come out better.


Thanks for the input.

#3 is awesome. Looks like two alien robot test dummies driving. Awesome.

nice shots! Love the old school stuff..
