+ I'd say it's been long enough since I posted a car shot, wouldn't you? :lmao: Here it is, a 350z shot in St. Augustine, Florida. Jenseylove and I were standing outside an art gallery, talking with the owner, when I saw the car approaching from down the road. I didn't want to distract or bother anyone, so I set the focus to about 15 feet and kept the camera to my side and my finger on the trigger. Once the car passed by, I snapped the shutter and prayed I didn't aim too high or too low.

+ No need to comment on the straight or non-straight lines. I did what I could to fix what seemed tilted. Ah well. I removed a radio antenna that stuck out from the back of the car. At first it didn't seem too bad, but once I removed it everything looked a bit cleaner. Too bad I can't do the same for the "car bra" in the front. That black cover just, yar, it'd be nice to have a consistent shiny element from front to back. Not much I could do. =P

+ Yay St. Augustine! :love:

+ Editing Process :: I didn't know where I was going when I started, so the process here could be simplified, I'm sure. :: 1) Colorized b&w image to a steel blue tone. 2) Duplicated layer, set properties to Multiply and opacity to 75%. 3) Created third layer. Set properties to color, opacity to 37% and filled with pink flesh-tone color. And there you have it. Rinse. Repeat.

I love shooting weddings, but if I could shoot cars fulltime, I think I'd be quite happy too!

Really good shot, I love the fact that it all seems so normal... but isn't when you look closer? <---- Crap justification.

Meh this looks a lot like the Nissan ads, especially the color scheme. :clap:

And that is one heck of a shot for not even looking or trying to focus! ^^;
