shot 2 was actually taken first a few hours before sunset
shot 1 was taken in a different location just as the sun dissapeared over the horizon

Sun, sun, lucky you we have had fog here for days.

Nice little car in my favourite colour. I like the first one but I don't like the parking lines, rubbish at the bottom and the colour looks a bit off to me. As to the photoshop it looks great to me well done.

I don't like the 2nd as much it's the hard edges, perhaps a feather is needed but hey I'm no expert.

Keep shooting! Enjoy your Christmas in that warm sunshine I'm not envious at all.

I wouldn't put the tyre facing the way it is in the second one - it tends to look much better to show alloy, not rubber...

The hard oval cutaway in the second one doesn't appeal much, either.

I don't mind the first but I find the slightly blown headlights and the white number plate fairly distracting... maybe burn them in a little?

Much better.

I have seen someone do a shot of a side of a car and then the driver/interior can't remember who but you could give that a go.

i took some shots from the side but got them from the wrong angle, when i end up in fremantle again (its a 45 min drive away) i will try shooting some side on interior shots

Interesting concept...#1 I like the PS on the hood and #2 is too sharp and I don't like the ps personally. Also the front tires are pointed the wrong direction. Keep on posting


a special thanks to the Big Guy upstairs
