Supercharged Pontiac G8

[gconnoyer]

Took some shots for my buddy. He just got new wheels/tires for his car and wanted some decent shots.
*It was supposed to be an overcast day, but ended up being mostly sunny. We just went ahead to see what we could get*

I like 3 and 4, were you using a polorizer? the windshield reflection kinda bugs me. number 1 doesn't work for me, it gets lost in the bay doors. I'd have liked to seen a front shot like that without a distracting background.

 

[gconnoyer]

Thanks I think they turned out the best. I originally wanted to do some rolling shots (from another car) because panning on a skinny ass road is hard. But it was only a 2lane road, so nothing we could do there.

I didn't have one on...rookie mistake. How much would they have helped with the reflection?


....rolling shots from a car cruise a few weeks ago...

I like the first one....the others are really cool also. The first one looks less like a car advertisement....it is an interesting composition. Except the car is a little off-center from the parking lines. Great shots

I have recently got myself a polorizer and I can tell a large difference already....and I have a cheap one. Someone with more exp can tell you if it would have helped much or not. I was just curious more than anything.

 

[gconnoyer]

I do have a few different ones and they were in the bag...I just didnt think to screw themOn.Yeah i thought we had it lined up good, but noticed the line down the center later. I guess I could shop it out so its less obvious.Thanks guys! Any tips and input from everyone else always helps. Seeing what everyone else thinks looks good, is always good to know

G8 is a bad@ss sleeper as is, add a procharger and decent tune and she's a monster. Nice car
