These were just some quick spur of the moment snaps after watching a movie at the mall, hence the dirty car. This was my first attempt at shooting a car too, he's going to clean it up and we're going to get together for a serious shoot tomorrow. C & C welcome as always!

Thanks Jules! I just wish the car was clean :) But like I said, these were spur of the moment shots since I had my gear in the trunk of my car. He was supposed to come over today for a serious shoot, but unfortunately the weather doesn't agree, it's raining right now and supposed to rain all day :(

He actually had the spoiler removed, he said it attracted to much police and kept getting pulled over.

I used my super wide angle lens, the Sigma 10-20 F/4-5.6

I think the nose of the car really handles the wide angle distortion well. Cool stuff.

That's why I love my sigma 10-20, it's so wide, and you can definitely use the distortion to your advantage, it gives objects a more dramatic look!

Yeah, the car looks so great with the spoiler, but it attracts so much attention to the car, both positive and negative.

man, i love this car.

although that isnt a dirty car, i would post a picture of my car at the moment but i dont have my camera with me.

if you lived in the countryside in the UK you would see plenty dirty cars.

awesome shots though


Canon EOS 400d, 18-55mm, 90-300mm, speedlight 220ex, numerous screw on filters, and a cokin p-series filter kit.
