2006 STI pics in the wild / D50 fun...56k, stay away

SCRAPPYDO · 03-21-2007, 03:18 PM

Took these pics from my favorite spot. On the way I found a nice little road that could probably pass for a small rally stage elsewhere. Enjoy, and as usual, comments welcome.

I have many others and more high res shots of these. But I picked 5 of my favorites. I am getting the hang of my camera, as well as effects of the different lenses have..

I shot this with a D50 with a simple AF-S Nikkor 18-55mm lens with a UV lense protector on it. Nothing crazy. I am no pro, but I love snapping pics.

4th pic looks sooo good....good job

scubadiver424 · 03-21-2007, 03:30 PM

wow, those are some really good pictures!

scubadiver424 · 03-21-2007, 03:35 PM

Hey I really like that grillcraft lower grill, did you install it yourself?? if you did how was the install???

SCRAPPYDO · 03-21-2007, 03:52 PM

Install was easy, but you have to drill small holes on the inside of your lower grill. AND you have to pop off the fog light covers and drill a large hole big enough to get a screw through to fasten it to your new Grillcraft grill. Its the only way to get to the small holes you drilled for the screws. I dont like putting holes in my car, but this was warranted. At least thats how I justified it!

Thanks for the compliments.

wow that grill is really nice, and nice color combo on the car and rims

***sti-liger*** · 03-21-2007, 04:06 PM

SCRAPPYDO · 03-21-2007, 04:17 PM

A few more...

The sky in the last lane washed out.. should have metered on something that was brighter.

GPJamesMVT · 03-21-2007, 04:30 PM

I want that damn lip!

SCRAPPYDO · 03-22-2007, 03:03 AM

you can find that lip at renick motorsports for around 450ish.

Happy purchasing

The 4th picture is perfect! Man, makes me almost wish I would've gotten Aspen white & gold instead.

SCRAPPYDO · 03-22-2007, 04:19 AM

Thanks! I say the same thing when I see a WRB/Gold.. haha

Pennywise · 03-22-2007, 04:52 AM

If you don't have one, I'd try out a PL filter. It will make the sky a little more blue and get rid of glare on your car.

SCRAPPYDO · 03-22-2007, 04:54 AM

I assume by PL you mean polarized light? No, I dont have one, but that is great advice. I will try one out! Thanks.
