something about them (pics, but love the old coopers) that just doesnt do it for me..just a lil c&c
1st pic wouldve been better if the mini badge was in focus or go front on to the light if u were getting that as the subject.

2nd, cudve gone to ur left abit more to show more of the rim and of the car..

3rd, move to ur left abit more so the words on the light can be seen which will make that something to look at..

try not always focus on the middle..so say have the thing in focus on the bottom corner or something..not meaning to sound rude..just a lil c&c

Love me some old coopers haha. I thought you meant a small meet with another type of car from the title. I've driven in one of these and they're awesome. My old man has a newer one and I'm just not a fan. A buddy built his with a (IIRC) B16 out of a Honda into his older mini and it flys!

1st Totally agree with you

2nd Totally agree with you

3rd Totally agree with you.

I was a sucker for selecting the middle segment in the AF setting, Will deffinatly be moving around to pick different AF points as the picture dictates.

I love putting my pics up on here, you get so much constructive input about them.
The story behind the shoot was , went to Llandudno for a boring shopping trip. Ended up in Jessops and bought a 50mm f1.8. (Not so boring shopping trip)

Stepped out of the shop and around 100 classic mini's came through town. It would have been rude not to go down!

Thanks for the comments much appreciated.

Nifty fifty is the best lens for the price ever! End of!
