mostly automotive - my photos

Love it when owners are willing to go that extra mile to get a decent shot Bmw e30 ex-rally car with a bmw m5 engine:

Excellent idea. could use better lighting on the man and car.

Thanks. Only had the tripod and camera with me, so wern't many options

Multiple exposures. HDR. Tell the dude to stand perfectly still so you can pop off a range of exposures to capture a higher dynamic range. That's how youd do it without OCf

I just bought a camera to get into automotive photography so this is pretty inspirational :thumbup:

Thanks! Been a while since last now, but I got to spend a few hours at a garage today. Will post more later. This was shot with the d700 + nikkor 24-70

Awesome as always Marius. The bm looks mean. Some real nice cars he gets to work on. Painting cars for a living I appreciate the time and effort he must be putting into them and the skill of course. I see you must of bought the nikon 24-70 again.

Thanks. He works on all kinds of cars, and knows a lot of people so there's always something fun in the garage there And a good observation: yes, I've got a nikkor 24-70 f2.8 again. Sold the first one because I really didn't like how it felt, and along with it I sold my sigma 12-24 (version 1) because it was real soft. Beeing using the 16-35 VR for a while, but it can't match the 24-70's IQ so... I bought a new nikkor 24-70 + sigma 12-24 (version 2). The version 2 of the sigma is a definitive improvement over version 1. I was going to wait for the tamron 24-70 f2.8 VC to be released, but then this shoot came up and I needed (well... "wanted" is more correct) something else than the 16-35 I might still get the tamron 24-70 VC if reviews proove it to be close to the nikkor in performance. And I'm looking at the D800... and the D4. I really want the D4. Anyways....

E30 with a supercharged M5 motor wow that will be a hand full. Me old man has just pre-ordered the D800, can not wait to have a play. I love the wallpaper edit, great colours. Get the D4 you know you want too.

The red&hvite e46 with e92 front is getting a 700+ bhp audi engine, there's a e39 with the same setup as the e30 and 3 more bmw's with engine setups I can't remember. They've also bought a huge racetrailer with a lift at the back so the cars can be lifted up and driven into the trailer. Hopefully I'll be doing a photoshoot of them all when everything is done. They're all getting the same colors aswell, to be kind of a team at events. And the trailer has a bar, shower, bedroom etc... Pretty sick He's ordered the D800? Let me know what you think of it! I want the D4 for sure, but its a lot of money to spend on something I really don't need. And I'm pretty tired of my daily driver (toyota POS) so I'm concidering a new car aswell.. Money, money, money... Need waaaay more of it!
