Black on Black Photos: Take 1

Just a test photo for an upcoming photo shoot.
Think I need to get the car lowered.

Wow! Nice pix! Tough to take eh?

So you either: (1) are willing to jeopardise your life for the sake of art ie. leaning out the window and driving at the same time..... what a skill eh! I bet you can also read, drink soup, do crossword puzzles and clip your toe nails all the same time whilst driving at 190kms/hr too then. A true multi-tasker.

Or (2) have a damn fast (Carl Lewis like) photographer running along side the car, snapping shots away. But remind him that it looks like a dual carriageway ie. may have on coming traffic to watch out for.


Can we have a competition as to guess where it was taken sort of thing? Coupe07 can offer some free prizes from his collection.

Good spotting... yellow stands out sooooo much.

Great pic - me want one. I cannot drive and lean outside at the same time though. Did you just put your left hand out and hope for the best shot?

i tried this awhile back...very very difficult. i still want a rolling shot of my car, but i don't trust anyone...either driving my car or hanging outside of a moving vehicle with my camera.

Erm, I hope I don't get flamed for this, but I looked closely at the picture and I think the image of the car is digitally superimposed onto the background. I might be completely wrong but its my opinion.

I don't know man, the reflections on the car seem right.

I saw the guy parked up with his gf on Saturday setting up to take the photo, the car and camera looked hardcore, great photo, and it is real. He obviously trusts his gf with his camera, and not to scratch his car!!

I am not sure whether its an issue of trusting his girlfriend. If I was the driver, I would be more concern about on-coming traffic!! Half her body would have to be leaning out to this this beautiful shot. This position may also be distracting and forget to look out for on-coming traffic.

May lose GF and his camera -- woman with camera (unless some sort of special woman) vrs (on-coming truck) truck usually wins! His new RX-8 experience may be changed forever!

It was the road up to the SAFRA club, I was on my way back from a bike ride when he was setting up.
