Man that's a lot of L glass tied up in sheet metal, kevlar and rubber...

<j/k>

Nice, clean, crisp and colorful images. Must have been fun wandering around all those "toys."

Actually, all of the non-panning shots were shot with my trusty Tokina 12-24mm

Dang, there is a ton of super nice rides there. I keep meaning to make it out there some day. With that Bugatti shot, you have twisted my arm to make it. Do you have any more of the Bugatti?

Nice cars. Can't say I agree with the cartoon saturation, though.

Sorry, but IMAGE POSTING RULES only allow 8 embedded pics by the OP per thread, so I removed the IMG tags from the last ones. You can always just post a link to them, though, or better yet, post a link to a gallery so we don't have to click on each image.

Actually, I did not do anything to bump up the saturation in post-processing.

I shot them in Standard picture mode and saturation is set at 1 (whereas default is 0)

It might be because Lamborghini carries cartoonish colours on their cars :)

Nice shots! Edited saturation or not, I like the colours!

Where is this meet, and how often is it held? I think I've seen photos from a similar meet before at that location. I recognize the Mazda building in the back.

That's quite the lineup! :)

I like the colors.

And that red Gallardo Spyder.

I'm more interested in the Gumbert.

Here are some more (not mine)

They had a Gumpert on Top Gear the other night. They were mocking it, saying how ugly it is but it went on to set the fastest lap time. :lol: (That's ignoring a couple of other cars which they disqualified for being "too low")

I wouldn't say it was "ugly" but it's not the prettiest super car ever. :confused:

OK, what you did is bump the Sat in the camera. Some guys like that, but I expect that you'll have problems getting a good looking print from those files as the colors will be out of gamut.
I'm not a big fan of in-cam "processing" & suggest that you try to get friendly with RAW files so you can have bright web images AND good looking prints.

When to begin shooting in RAW?
