Very nice clean civic

I just think the pics are a bit dark and can use more lighting.

Interesting backgrounds.

they are a bit dark

Take a look at this thread for how to use a Layer Mask to selectively lighten/darken part of a pic: Airport runway shoot
"Contrast Control" Tutorial
Or, to blend two different exposures:
Blending Multiple Images (external link) They use a gradient, but I prefer to use a black/white brush to make the changes. Like in the "Airport runway shoot" example.

Ah, agree on the shots being a bit dark. Until I get some secondary lighting, I'll have to try and work some photoshop magic. :)

#1 and #2 are my favs. Nice shots.



Sometimes I question if I really know what I'm doing.

Yes, this is Milwaukee.

I've been playing around with Photoshop to lighten these up a bit. I'll post up when I get a chance. I think what I'm going to do is get the brightness / contrast of the car right in DPP (I shot these RAW), then bring the background back down by burning.

white balance on a few could use some work. The second and third have good lines that draw the eye to the car. Especially the third.

I like this shot. Your PP is nice on this one. I do like the original a little better from the stand point it had more background in. I think you crop a bit to much off the top. Good compositions with these. All I'd suggest, (other than the darkness of the shot which has been well covered) is give the car some room.
