996 C4S on lower Grand - AutoPhotog : Photo Enthusiasts/Pros Forum

Synthetic Darkness · 02-04-2010, 09:25 PM

I took this pic at a very popular spot in LA. I used lightroom to edit it. It was shot with my Nikon D80 on a tripod.

This pic is one my friend took with his Canon 5D Mk1 and 3 Alien bees and a lot of post processing in CS4

Comments and criticism welcome.

Great pictures! I don't like the green tint for the 1st one, maybe pull that out, otherwise they look great. What type of processing did you do for the 2nd picture?

Beautiful car! Pictures look great. The only thing in the first one that distracts me is the megahorn or something right above the roof of the car.

Looks like a Bee.

The green is also kind of funky. Second one looks much better but looks kind of noisy in darker areas. Maybe too much processing? Sweet car though.

Nice shots and I love lower grand.... its like every car commercial is filmed down there or somewhere around there lol. They need to fix the florescent bulbs that are burnt out.

Like the composition of the first shot, makes the car remind me of Big Bird

Nice car! I know 996's don't get the respect from the Porsche community that it deserves.

I'd crop the second one a little tighter to get rid of the trash on the right sidewalk and the transient too.

Since you did a lot of processing in Photoshop, might as well clone out that strobe head in the top shot too! And has been mentioned, the color is a little off. It is like a green banana in the top photo, and a ripe one in the bottom!
