I don't think the white border compliments this image. It looks a bit overexposed, well at least on my work monitor it does.

Yeah, the white border doesn't work there. It is a bit overexposed, but I kind of like it that way. Maybe desaturate the trees a bit to compensate on the brightness.

Ya, my dad has had 2 of these. Not the fastest car I've driven, but quick and super fun (I've been reminded recently that the fastest car available isn't always the most fun to drive with my cars also). I never thought I'd have so much fun driving a FWD car, but I got hooked. I took his newer one on a 2500 mile trip around the US and average 38mpg for the whole trip.

And even though people pick on them for being small, it easily has as much or more room than my Jeep Wrangler does, and is comfortable as long as you don't prefer 1990's Lincoln-type suspension.

Congrats on the new ride.

Yep these cars are easily misunderstood.
They have plenty of room in them. Granted all cars have limits, but it should still fit all my gear in it. I have yet to test it out, but I don't have much doubt on the majority of my stuff.

LOL The white border goes on all my images... it may work better on some than others... but the intent is to have my logo on there so when the client puts these on Facebook or emails them out... they know where to go to shoot with us.

The sky in the top right is clipped... everything else is fine.. the working off a calibrated monitor.


Thank for the comments.

Congrats Ryan..

that is a fun car to drive.. i have had the chance to drive one for the weekend in 2005 and it exceeded my expectations.. at that time i owned a 2003 WRX and i was thinking in track race, the mini handled better, braked better and excellerated just fine..

now your going to have to design a cargo organizer for your AB1600 and stands, maybe lay the passenger seat down and make that side the flat side to lug cargo around?

get some 20percent tint on that! don't know what the laws in Florida are?

Thanks! It's my first official "new" car that i've been able to buy.

20% is coming. I had 20% on the neon and the other neon before it 20% is like the perfect light level IMO. I am not aware of the tint laws either, but I didn't get hassled with the neon here so I don't think it'll be much of a problem.

I've also already ordered a 2" shorty radio antenna to get rid of that RC car look lol. Not sure why they made it so big on such a small car. Also ordered a stiffer BOV spring which will allow more boost pressure in my tubes. Keeps my shifts more smoother, and a little less turbo lag.

The two rear seats fold down flat to allow more space. So I should be able to fit the equipment in that way. The 2011 models are quicker then the 05s. I'm sure driving one of the newer ones would feel much more solid then the one you drove, but yes very fun cars! All while getting 35MPG, which is perfect seeing as i drive 70 miles round trip everyday.

Ya, I drove the older supercharged model and then my dad had the newer turbo model. The turbo model has great torque even down low and pulls harder. I was a little unsure of the drivability when they switched to a turbo (being on such a small engine), but it was definitely a good change (and much easier to tune!).

Yea, I was just being facetious, being your gear list. I know how much room they have.

It's interesting. I keep looking back between this thread, the Sigma 85/1.4 thread, the 85/1.8 thread, and the Zeiss 100/2 thread. The only lens I can tell apart from shots alone is the Zeiss. The Sigma and Canons both produce basically the same images (in my opinion). Anyone have any exquisite 85/1.2 shots showing off the 1.2's color or DoF? I'm having trouble justifying it over the Zeiss or Sigma.

Buy the Zeiss or Sigma if you can't see it. Why try and justify it?

^Nice work Hatch. The background is so dreamy.
