I was lamenting to dmp about not being able to find as good locations to take pictures of the car as he seems to (some examples) - and he pointed out that in Utah, I should be able to find plenty of good backdrops. (We both love photography, with or without our 8's). So I went searching, and this is the result.

I also want anyone else who has photos of their RX-8 in a cool setting to post them.

So here are a few I took last week:







And I've attached a few more.

Any other amateur photographers out there?

 

way to go, Nick!! Awesome.

 

nice pics, but for the love of god loose that yellow plate in the front, it kills the car and takes away from the pics

 

Crap, I know. I haven't got my real plates yet and was waiting to take it off until after I did - I didn't want them to cry about it when I took it in to get the plates.


But at least now, for all intents and purposes, the yellow plate never existed

 

Sweet Nick, here is one of my beauty in a special place - right in my driveway, but yummy nevertheless IMHO

 

Hey that's awesome! That's the kind of location that I'm jealous of... it's such a desert here that in the valley, that even if there is that many trees around, there's still powerlines or some gaudy monstrosity of a house obstructing the picture

 

We don't have scenic places where I live

 

Dmp, that looks like a RX-8 model car taken close up, in like 1/16 scale, what with how you did the focus like that. Great pic!

 

dmp, get one at rainier! that is the best shot in the world right there, mt. rainier in the background of your car. i meant to do it with my 8 but never got around to it.

 

Another couple pics of my car...

 

Too freaking sweet DMP

 

Love the effects dmp, I have got to learn how to use my photoshop software....that is too sick.

 

My place of work - before I had the kit installed.

A couple of shots when the sun was wierd (used in my avatar)

And some rain on the bonnet

 

wow you guys are really good photographers...holy chit

speechless

 

Nick...you were just a few feet from greatness on that 2nd one....a bit more to the left (camera placement) and those mtns woulda REALLY brought out the grey.

 

i love the shadow of the chainlink fence just under the headlight in nick's first pic. really nice pics guys. one i remember is Elara's first pic of her car. it was one of if not the first pics of nordic green we saw here and there is this huger bug crawling on the floor in front of her car. i love that pic. ill have to search mine to find a good one or go take some more. thanks for the inspiration

 

Here's a picture I'm proud of although it isn't nearly as good as the ones above.

 

I dunno - I like the contrast with the yellow grass, etc. I would have PS'd out that sign, however.

:D



Nick 'is' greatness, btw...if only some of y'all knew how talented he is....you'd be blown away.

:D



Lest he have no flaws, he DOES owe me an "Orange Julius' however.

 

Great pics guys...

 

Hey Nick, great shots! I need to go out and get more scenic shots...

Heres my attempt at a night shot:

 

Xmas day,S.of Houston

 

This picture doesn't belong to me nor does the 8, but I thought it was as interesting photo!.....

 

The lightning should be hitting the blue car with the big-*** wing

 

I dunno about you guys but i think the interior is freakin picturesque...

 

Its watching you....
