straight from the camera. no post processing was done on any of the photos.

 

see thats talent ^^^

 

i do what i can

 

Wow, My engine bay looks like CRAP! Something I have to fix.
Thanks for a diffrent perspective.


Everyone in here has some really great shots. Good job!

 

so, i've seen some of my photos being used to show off your cars in other threads. that's fine by me as long as

1. you give me credit
2. you take the photos off of my flickr account. not the ones i posted in this thread. the only reason i posted my pics off of photobucket is because you can post them as thumbnails, which in turn lets the page load faster and you don't have to view everything. the photos on my flickr account are better quality, richer colors, and sharper. to post a picture off of a flickr account, you click 'All Sizes' at the top of the photo, and then find the image's URL when you scroll down. you then bracket the URL btwn [IMG][/IMG].

kthnxbye

 

You should assign a creative commons license to your photos. I think you can do this within flickr.

Something like this http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/us/

 

ya. also, i need to create a unique watermark and start slapping it on all my photos.

 

thanks for sharing the photos lena... i'm sorry didn't get to meet u in person at ss11. maybe one of these days i'll try to make it out to lax again. (i've only gone once and that was like a LONG time ago.)

keep up the good work!

 

why thank you

i don't go to the LA meets anymore, but might make a cameo some time soon

let me know when you go, and i'll go and get some shots of your car

and yes, I LOVE SMILIES!!!!

 

nice pics

 

i hate my job

 

OMG

i knew you were gonna say that. i think you're waiting for the question,

nuke, why do you hate your job?

 

because i missed both BOTD and SSXI.

 

awww. well, for SSXI, it was hotter than hell and the pics pretty much tell yu waht happened without the heat stroke

 

i would have went to BOTD if i could have taken leave. one of these days i will try to make it to a SS though.

 

well, everything happens for a reason. just keep that in mind

 

oh yeah, awesome pics as always Lena.

 

Some of my pics from SevenStock taken with 09Factor's camera:















Same dude caught napping by PC in an FC:



MMMM, race cars:

 

Some more detail shots I experimented with:











On the way back to Phoenix we stopped here for gas, there was some old Diesel pumps to side. Photo Opp!





Sunkist Fresh!



Erick aka Easy_E1 acting funny:

 

nice pics! i like your 1st and 4th detail photos. well done

 

Thanks! I'm still a camera n00b but I want to pick up a D-SLR (eying the Canon Eos Rebel XS-i). I really like Macro shots where you can see all the nice details, and HDR pics (but I don't know how to do those yet!).

 

I'm glad you had fun using the camera. The few pics I did take were when we stopped for gas in Palm Springs.
Easy pulled into the shade by the diesel pumps and instant photo shoot.

Lena,
Are you still using the 20D that you had at last years SS?

 

indeed i am

 

HDR isn't too hard just bracket 2 full stops both ways from optimal exposure using only shutter speed. (You end up with 5 photos) Then go into photoshop and play with file > automate > merge to HDR. (One full stop doubles or halves the amount of light.)

The minimum is a 3 picture bracket, but 5 or more is better. You can generally get a feel of how many by looking at the shots, both ends of the bracket should be quite dark or fully blown out. (Look at your histogram)

And make sure you disable any automatic exposure pre/post processing in your camera. Oh and a tripod can help.

I'll have to go play now! Thx.
