couple things...

1. what is the deal with the redish white lighting cast upon your cars?
2. you're shooting a white and black car together...bad bad bad. at least you make the STI look better than the washed out S2000.
3. most of your shots are out of focus
4. get rid of the signature, it really distracts from the photo.

This is the first time my friend took pictures of our cars with his new camera so give him a break and stop hating. Shooting black with white does not go well together but that is my friend's brand new car and we just wanted to get it in the picture as well and the pics are out of focus because we're still new at using his camera. And he wants to leave his sig on there to feel special. Then again i am only 17 and i dont know better.

Not hating here, but next time a little less post processing. Too much saturation and sharpening going on. Composition wise though, most are good. You guys have some good looking cars, now figure out that camera

sti_nguyen · 12-10-2007, 11:04 PM

yeah i can see what you're saying, friend went a little to wild with photoshop, ill tell him he needs to clam down with that, thx.. our next shots will be a lot better

it's called constructive criticism...learn how to take it. I am not hating, im trying to help. shooting white and black cars together is very difficult and you're setting yourself up for failure. granted, it can be done but the results can be somewhat unfavorable. you didn't do a bad job with your shots but keep at it and you'll get it.

being new to a camera shouldn't matter with your focus...that is one of the keys to photography that is one of the easiest things to do. watch your lighting, composition and angle and you'll do well.

Sorry i took it the wrong way, the shots dont look as focused because we didnt have a tripod and it was freezing outside..making it hard for us to keep the camera straight and steady..also too much sharpness in the pictures

GCtoSTI · 12-11-2007, 05:48 PM
