Mini Cooper Photoshoot
I just shot this for a guy called Mike, i shot his 350z about a year ago when i first started getting into automotive photography.

I found this cool road that looked like it had never been finished. mike turned up and he said he"d already shot there!! but oh well.

I wanted to give the shots a apocalyptic kind of feel to them as the place looked like that.

Nice looking. Minis look 10 times better when the fenders are painted to match the body color.

nice shots. me likee the contrast with the red of the car against the bland color of the landscape/mountains around it.

Awesome shots, but the roof like everyone else said, gotta go.

I was looking into the mini's to soup up on performance before getting the 8 but the interior is just way too fugly with the clock-sized like speedometer sitting right on top of the middle dash. Absolutely disgusting.

The latest Mini has a dash that goes way beyond form over function to ugly over function.

I like the guns on the roof. Not so cute on the "cute car".
Awesome pics, great eye!
