I REALLY wish I could have been there as Ac3 always does an AWESOME job shooting our cars and I still love the pics he took of our 8's last year when we did a similar shoot.


Rev: the car looks AWESOME.

Ac3: love your ings car and I wish you'd have taken more pics of that gorgeous rear wing.

zach: lookin' good man, can't wait to see what wheels you get next.

First off, Garrett these look amazing. Favorites by far! Great job man

And second, the reason my car looks cleaned up is because it got extrememe body work done to it. Its painted a different shade of black now, Black Metallic. The entire body kit is refiberglassed and the car is completely debadged and removed of any dents or scratches.
Oh and an AEM CAI took the place of my fogs

Thanks for all the nice comments guys

Lol, it wasn't too long ago you were proudly rocking those 20's, you still don't have too much room to talk

+1, I'd sort of like to see some non-HDR if you happened to take any. Heavy tonemapping has never really been my thing, though I can understand why some people like it. Out of curiosity, were you using auto focus at the time?

Some of these shots are pretty cool, keep it up!

I'm really new to photography and its more of just a hobby to keep me sane while I'm away at school. I really love the look of HDR but I'm still learning how to properly use it. I didn't take any pictures that I intended to be shown as non-HDR, just really the same photos without any of the post processing is all that I have. Most of the pics were taken using the manual focus with an f22 aperture on my lens set to 18mm with 9 exposures bracketed 1 EV apart

Any tips, techniques, or ideas that you could offer I would love to hear because I want to improve and learn how to take some great pictures.

I really appreciate though your nice comments and I always like it when people compliment my work. Landscapes are more my thing but I love taking pics of cars too.

Practice is the best medicine, I'm in the same boat myself. I guess Rev's headlights are super hazy, I thought they were a bit out of focus

Some of those wider shots are cool, the distortion almost causes the walls to hug/frame the subject - very cool.

LOL, actually I did mention to Rev that his headlights were super hazy and to invest in some headlight restorer..... I tried to do what I could to make them not look so bad but there's only so much I know how to do in photoshop.

I really enjoy the distortion with wide angle shots as I think it makes cars look way more dramatic, maybe too much for some but I like it at least.

Composition is one of the subjects I've never learned much about as I've never taken a class in photography, its hard for me to just see a good shot when I take it, I usually end up liking certain pictures after I get a chance to process them! I hope to take some classes over this next year so I could learn some of the basics.

Ah, there are countless rules that can be taught and learned, you'll soon find out.

Yeah, I come from a skateboard filming background so fisheyes/distortion seems nearly normal to me. I like 'em

Alright, enough thread jacking from me, others need to comment as well lol
