This was the last photoshoot I did of my car and it was a few months ago. I think its time for another one ha!

One that I did a HDR effect to:

**UdubBadger** · 11-03-2009, 11:54 PM

nice shots, the HDR looks really good too.

are the other ones RAW's with shadow/highlight added?

djdorifto · 11-03-2009, 11:56 PM

thank UDub, no theres are in L, right below RAW. I need to upgrade my CF card to start shooting more in RAW.

I did some tweaks here and there in lightroom 2.2

**UdubBadger** · 11-03-2009, 11:57 PM

cool. how big of a CF card you got?

djdorifto · 11-03-2009, 11:58 PM

just a 2gig

**UdubBadger** · 11-04-2009, 12:01 AM

pshhhh.... I shoot on 1 gig cards (though I have 4 of them... benefits of working for a photo company and then them letting you go but they are located 2 hrs away... they didn't seem to care I didn't return them.)

I'd say go on ebay and just pick up another few 1 or 2 gig cards and you'll be fine. I can get about 75-125 RAW's on each card.

djdorifto · 11-04-2009, 12:05 AM

haha nice!

Yeah I was thinking of getting another 2gig or 4 gig for my regular stuff and keep this current 2gig as my RAW only card. But, its a "ehhh" card so it doesn't write that fast.

djdorifto · 11-04-2009, 12:48 AM

ack! don't jinx me now, haven't had any errors yet :P

but yeah a San Disk is on my list to get on my next pay check

kcsays · 11-04-2009, 01:44 AM

try not to have poles behind the car...

Zaitz · 11-04-2009, 04:42 AM

Car looks nice. Some of the angles are a bit repetitive though.

Professor · 11-04-2009, 01:38 PM

Do you usually keep the car reading Kph or is that just for pictures...

jmk · 11-04-2009, 01:41 PM

Shots look good except for this one:

I don't understand what the appeal is to have the subject out of focus in the background and have a random object in focus.

well it'd be different if there were 2 subjects... say a person in the foreground and the car in the background... but a wooden post doesn't qualify IMO

jmk · 11-04-2009, 03:02 PM

Yeah thats why I said "random object". Car owner would work, female in bikini...

djdorifto · 11-04-2009, 03:11 PM

I've over used that area so much I was just getting bored and doing different things, I think I found my new spot to take new pictures at.

1HotA32 · 11-04-2009, 08:31 PM

awesome shots and a clean s2k

BandyDesign · 11-04-2009, 11:17 PM

I love the first shot.

I'm really not a fan of the mild-wild editing.
