Just had her waxed and sealed today, so I decided to take some pictures.

Here is a photoshopped version one one of them.

Camera was a Canon eos 300d.

Lots of soft focus, B&W blue filter, Levels.

that is one sweet pic. you need to black out your headlights and your SS would look awesome. that camera takes some nice pics.

MarcS

Thanks Yeah I love my camera. I should have taken off the liscense plate though lol.

I like the headlights as they are on my car, but the black ones do look pretty sick.

Jabbles

nice pic, just a thought maybe put your watermark on the bottom or make it smaller I found it obtrusive.

selfinfliction

it's like that to keep people from cropping it off... you can tell he does alot of photos from that simple fact lol


sweet picture as well. i'd love to see more if you got any

MarcS

Thanks , I did the watermark just so someone wouldn't claim it to be theirs. I don't mind people using it for wallpaper or whatever, I'd like to know about it.

Thanks also I may post more if I get bored tonight and feel like messing around with some more shots.

ssstraub

Nice. The shot would be perfect if not for the shadows on the car.

MarcS

I like the shadows, helps bring out some of the contrast in the car's lines.

selfinfliction

yeah get some more up.. i would be interested in getting a few hi-res/full size photos for some desktop backgrounds.. watermark and all

also, did you emboss the front end? or is it naturally looking like that? if it's embossed i'd probably lighten it a little

MarcS

The fog lamps should be sharper, hard to decide on if I like it or not. I wanted an almost "dream like" appearance. I'll try to correct it though, you're right about it needing to be more clear.

Heres another shot I took a while ago:

Edit:

I just did a B&W overlay with the origional and the front actually was like that in the color version without any other adjustments. It's out of focus but doesn't seem to be exposed until I convert it to B&W

selfinfliction

you should take that same picture with your car after you drop it, if you are.. that would make a pretty good before and after... if you got any large files you need to host, just pm me.. i got a couple hundred gigs of storage and bandwidth on a dual xeon in a data center hooked up to 6 x 1 gb pipelines lol

Spectre

Nice man, the second time your car has graced my desktop

zinner

nice picture! You should photoshop the onstar nipple on your cars forehead

MarcS

lol you're hooked up I see. I should be alright for now, but I'll definately keep that in mind thanks.

MarcS

haha, it's an honor

I kind of like it in this picture It probably look much better without it though. I will have to work on it

selfinfliction

yeah i got a reseller's account for a huge hosting company... can host pretty much anything but the normal bad stuff. anyone needing domains.. i can hook you up too with some crazy deals lol

MarcS

So I'm really bored

Here's something I was playing with.

Photoshopped out antenna and my license plate.

+motion blur

krzykrl

damn your car is making me regret i didn't get blue.. that is one sharp color

nice cars and photos

MarcS

Thank you

lol I origionally wanted a black one, but once I saw the blue I loved it instantly.

donkiluminate

Nice pic. I swear, if I have one more problem with my S I might have to trade in.

2006ArrivalBlueSS

And I'm saying the same thing about black...that I regret changing my colour on my 2006 order from black to blue. But, the more I look at blue, the more I like it. Don't get me worng, black is my favourite colour on cars but I've always had black cars so I wanted to try something different.

Arrowslinger

Very nice!

My better halfs daughter works in a photo lab and she hopes to be a photographer one day, she shot some pics of my better halfs GTO, I need to see if I can dig them up. She used a lens that made the headlights seem to have a sun flare effect, really cool.

MarcS

Good luck to her I love photography, it can really change the way you see everyday things.

DJNateGnau

Dude, That's a seriously hot pic.

Mike_42

Very nice....

makng me contemplate changing my computer's desktop wallpaper ...

I do wish that the law didnt require a front license plate .. looks so much better without that license plate there
