White BMW

Feedback anyone?

What color is the car supposed to be?

 

[tecboy]

White, is the color off?

WB looks a little off, and frankly they just kind of look like photos someone would post on craigslist trying to sell it. In my opinion car photos are super boring unless they have some kind of cool backdrop.

I was thinking to have shadow DOF, but I don't know how I can achieve it using a flash.

White balance is off, it looks rather yellow. Blue it up a little. As for the compositions, I agree that a better background could have made these shots. Since it's outside, maybe you don't need to use a flash, and if you do, here's an answer from another thread...

Neutral density filters. High speed sync.

Thanks, I got the hi sync working. I think I need to calibrate my monitor.

What would have worked well here would be some more artistic shots, try low down looking up, maybe a close shot along the side of the car blurring out the end of the car.

I don't think you fixed much.... It's still yellow.

Yeah, just looks like some car shots from a local show. getting low and close will help you hide a lot of the distractions in the background not to mention helping with the shot itself. most are just to high up. just looks like you walked up, looked down at the wheel and hit the button. i'd take your own car or car of a friends thats nice and go out to somewhere private and just start looking at the car, finding the angles, the lines of the car and practice.
