First, third, and last ones are my favorite. Good job.


I shoot photos of cars.

I'm digging the alternative compositions from an artistic point of view, but as far as featuring the car, i feel like i never really saw it except for the last one, lol. some of the reflections are a bit distracting (especially in #1), did you use a CPL?

with that said, i really like them from a pure artistic standpoint, if that's what you were going for.

I like the last one.


Don't try to confuse me with the facts, my mind is already made up.

I agree with p27rpy. The last 2 is too similar... could have just posted the last one. Other shots are different than a lot of car shots, though. Just need to somehow bring out the car more...

Would love to hear some advices, comments.

Appreciate the feedback. I'm still pretty inexperienced at this and had a hard time getting good sharp and detailed photos of a black car on a overcast day. I did not use a cpl since I don't have one but it would have helped for sure. I did a color set that was a little more normal as well but for the black/white I wanted to try some different angles.

i thought so. a CPL will help you tremendously, especially with a black car. keep shooting though, they look good!

A CPL might take out some bad reflections, but it can't put any good ones in. Only you can do that.
