We did, the security guard inside still came after us.

Actually, the sunday before that I had no problems, another guard even said hi to me. lol

nice car...I really like the mix of colours in the last pic...my only thing, however, (and this is very minor)...it's cool that you included the light on the right...but you chopped 1/3 of it off....I'd say crop it so you have the light and maybe a little strip to the right of it...

Borrow OffroadZuki's tracker for a day. You'll make it no problem hehe ;)

haha...just saw this...you can't borrow the Zuk but I'll gladly go with you ;) hehehe

Nice Celica red kryptonite. Any pictures of the front?

C&C:
First picture has to much glare from the lights and the background is to distracting.
Second picture is the best of the two, editing look fine, not great, but not horrible either. I would of added a side shot and a front 3/4 to complete a nice series!

I find the angles of the red celica pictures just a touch to extreme. I also find the halo around the shadow of the car a little distracting. otherwise nice bright pictures, keep shooting! :)

Nice 2nd shot! Although they all have the same background, it is way too distracting in shot 1 and 3, although # 3 isn't bad either. The positioning of the car longitudinally helps the image compared to #1 where the car seems small and insignificant.

Oh yeah, a polarizer (filter) would have helped get some of the reflections and glare off shot #2. Also, in shot #2, try to make sure you don't have major reflections of people and other distracting objects in the paint of the car.

I saw a Dodge ram 350 drive up that curb and peelout of the parking lot :P but i think the porche would look cooler with a smoke show ;)

haha, yeah, well the owner wouldnt stand any more than 12ft away from his car... a lot of shots were ruined cuz he was either in the background or in the reflection =/

Mananetwork 03-12-2008 12:00 AM

Those rims are so balling! 3rd shot is good, everything fits in a lot better

The parking lot of the Casino in Coquitlam, United Blvd

mlworks 03-12-2008 11:20 AM

oh, thought it looked kinda familiar.. kinda weird to see an empty casino parking lot though, haha

dL 03-13-2008 08:33 AM

We went there on a Thursday evening, nestle. That's why :P

Haha ya you can see him in the 2nd pic quite clearily.
I like the 2nd pic. It's my favorite.
Oh yeah, and the car sucks. Next time go with an Enzo or something... Kidding! *DROOL* :p
