The Garage in the scene is where the 'Race' part of the car was born, its birth place say :)

I don't like the over exposed messy tyres in 2 now <_<

C&C very welcome :)

Absolutely love them mate!!!!

The lighting on the car is just sublime. Love all the tyres n wheels scattered around n your composition rocks.

I have to ask though.. any interior shots? :)

No interior shots which fit the set anyway. The only ones I have were taken outside and have a very different look and feel to these shots, so I haven't put them online as yet.

Thanks very much for the comment though :)

1 & 3 are great shots.
#2 is interesting but seems too busy and the light keeps drawing my eye away fro the car.

They look pretty good, & he should be happy with them.

Thanks for the comments everyone. The driver, Jeremy was happy with them and now uses them for advertising :)

I agree the burning light in 2 is rather strong, but I felt this was somewhat of a dull scene/comp and needed some help to boost it. That and the idea of conveying the 'burning the midnight oil' as it was late and as you can see work on other cars is still going on in the background :)

Very nice shots of a nicely built car. As a fan of the 5 I always like to see them in photos

First one is amazing. Very nicely done. The whole set is good but the first one really rocks.
