I ordered her in June and she just got delivered a week and a half ago, so of course I got right into the photoshoots!

Here is one of my favorites so far:

If you're going to take shots like that, you need to pick up some gels. Lighting isn't bad, but the color balance just doesn't look right. Shooting your subject at 5500 kelvin when your background is at 3000 just doesn't make for a balanced photo, IMO.

What are gels?

I didn't use a flash for this shot, it's all natural lighting.

And the plot thickens. Is this taken with a 50mm 1.4?

24-70mm F/2.8L on a 5D MkII.

Nice car!
Although I woulda gotten the V6 with the performance package, LSD, etc. The new V6's will beat the old GT's apparently. That's awesome!

Oh I see. Just taken @ 50mm.

Yeah, it's also been cropped a bit with some level adjustments. I really want a prime though, I don't have any!

If anyone cares, here's the original:

Yeah the new V6's are no slouch, but the only reason I got one was because of the new Coyote 5.0, so that would have defeated the purpose if I had gotten the V6 haha.
