Car shoot, C&C

Kinda an impromptu shoot with my friends before I had to head back up North. I realize it was by no means the best time of day and a few clouds woulda been nice, but I wanted to see what you guys thought. Thanks for looking.

for the 2nd photo, i like it when you use lower shutter speed because it create leading lines

Suddenly, my neck hurts... Low angle on cars, Good! Dutch angle on cars, or on anything, ever, Bad!!

With that said, 5 and 6 are fine, the others hurt to look at.
Try not to get your window in the frame.

What were your settings?

Nice job getting the mustang sharp in number 6, keep trying, each time with a slower and slower shutter speed. If you can get down to 2-3 seconds or longer, properly exposed, I think that could be a great shot!

Edit: I just realized this was a 6 year old post...haha epic bump.
I must say, having the "similar threads" at the bottom is basically a trap for someone who is multitasking and otherwise unobservant. Sorry for the unnecessary blast from the past.

Must be some pretty severe hills! The extreme tilt does nothing for me. Losing the front tag would also help most of these. In the future if you want to do this seriously make sure the subject is completely detailed as well. Beautiful reflections can go a long way.

The first 4 pics, plus #6, can be deleted.
I think #5 is the only keeper out of the bunch. The photo has action. Nice on the slower shutter speed to show the motion of the tires. Seeing the road in the distance also gives the viewer a place to see where the car is going.
