There are some things that I know will be distracting about the pictures to some. Basically I am still getting familiar with the new camera so I have not been concerned so much about location.. Here we go...

Love the body on this. Looks like a matt finish......thats because it is. My mistake. Only seen this done once before. Matt black but chips caused flaky paint.

Second = money shot. First also.

If only that car would be road legal over here! Sadly that ride would be impossible to drive in the UK let alone get near my drive.

Looks like you are getting the hang of the 40D. I really like the location. 5 is a good shot, I would like 2 better if the car was angled in the corner a little more towards the camera.

I actually like the location, but would ease up on the vignetting a bit in #1

Probably no surprise to anyone, but I like the last two best. Turn the wheel a bit in #5.

That is some MASSIVE rear dish action. Great shots and insane dub! (I'm a mkV driver myself.)

nice shots. i'm in no way a gti fan, but for some reason that sort of "out of the box" color combo does it for me. it's hard to find an import that i like, nice! ;)

Thanks guys! His car is definitely unique and deserves the recognition that it gets for all the hard work that has gone into it over the years.. It has been featured in many magazines and it is much deserving. Some magazines have features it more then once because of the drastic changes it has gone through over the years. It's not everyones cup of tea but it is unique.. That is forsure :cool:

Fun car too shoot too :D

So lucky!!! A matte finish car is easy to light! No reflections to worry about, maybe just the occasional hot spot here and there. I think you did a great job with these. I think that rolling shot stands out some. I like the first, just seems that you're losing definition towards the back of the car.

I for one think your shots are amazing, way crisp and just plain eye candy. Look forward to seeing more work from you.

first shot is my favourite, location is excellent!
