rotfl ... nice spot :run_away: any critics on composition n stuff ? :)

[alancheong7]

Nice series
Ditto on the Gold/Golf
Dashboard meter shot looks like handshake blur
Errrrm, ....... need mind-boggling array of lights lor :D:D

Pic 1 : You might wanna readjust the cars next time. Looks like the photo is focused more towards the grass at the back instead of the headlamps.

Pic 2 & 3 : Not everything must be in the center of composition. It can be very interesting if you use the lines and place the emblem in odd places than the center.

Pic 4 : I like this one =)

Pic 5 : A bit cluttered. It's like I see R32 decal and not everything. Tight cropping might work if you wanna focus the photo on something, composition as well.

Last pic : Might work better if the photo is just the car's butt and showing the whole civic decal.

And man, your friend is rich *jealous*

#4 & #6 are my favs.
#4 would be really nice if can add-up some digital processing to give more punches. :P

btw, the VW rims are soooooooooooo nice!
would love to have those sets. *drool*

Hey thnx for the comments !!
#1 : Yea i still think tat the distance apart is too far ... but my fren dun dare to drive anymore nearer lolz .. later bang i die .. but yea could have gotten a better background .. thnx for the reminder

#2,3: Really ? HAha i thought it would be cool with the symmetry n stuff ... i'll try other angle some other time .. my frens are bored :P Hope to get another session with them hehe

#4: U like the gold, don't you ? :D

#5: I'm not too sure i get what u mean but, are u saying this pic would be better than the #5 ?

#6: So u think i should shoot "straight" to the ass of the car instead of having too much of an angle ?

Oh yea they are rich arses ...

#4 & #6 are my favs.

Thnx !! Hehe since i'm on my holiday .. im learning a lil on PS hehe .. but i'm always in a dilemma .. someppl say if edit using PS then they will say "eleh not original la .. use PS who also can la" u know those kinda of thing =/

Sorry, :redface: just my way of saying you need LOADS of lights if you are really into this :D
Look at asyraf's fave #4 .... and then check out those car mags and brochures & catalogues ... very little or NO shadows at all, except for where & when it counts.

#4 sleek lines are shown to advantage, clear, and even reflections emphasise the streamlined design. Absence of harsh reflection(s) is good.

I like #4. Excellent job on the white balance. However, I would prefer a bit more tweaking to have the colours punch out.

[calios]

try to turn on the headlights / HID for these kind of shots perhaps?

Thnx bro ... u mean tweaking with PS ?

Doesn't turn out too great ... maybe coz it's bright so the headlights no effect haha

[noordin]

Awesome car, that R32.

[ShaolinTiger]

Yeah R32 rocks, would love one.

BTW guys have gotten around to making a section for car discussion seen as though there's a request and quite a few fans here
