You can just hear the roar of this engine:

Not a bad car for the price:

Civictron that flare really throws off the picture. If you would of shot with more tail light ran the DOF along the car and ended with the front wheel then that would of gave you some nice reflections and the ambient street lights. Wonder what it would of looked like with the blue glow

Bang heres one that I did a while ago with the same key focus.
Edit: should of taken off the licence plate before taking that

ill try that the next time i wax my car ;)

Civic your last shot is not bad if that was a sodium vapor street lamp, most people get yellow pictures with those lights, lol.

mother fuck domani! your car shots are too damn shwing shwing! *uh uh, shit, i think i just threw out my hip*

*crawls back*

anyways, wicked shots. i would have made the came comment as salar. this might have been impossible, but brought the camera down lower and had the car in the left third of the frame with the road winding down in the bg.

hmm now i look at it again, i kinda like the vertical shot.

bleh, it works, i like, its your style.

it was a street light right outside my house :S stupid yellow lights

heheh thanks dennis...


yes i totally know wut u mean and that idea has been in my mind
for very long while now

just i don't have the resources to try it out... maybe during summer
when sun wakes up earlier, we can try stuff in the early morning.

Domani, was that with your new 17-40 ;).

Alrighty, Ima been playin with PS that last couple of hours and ive always tried to get a B/W photo with the car being coloured,

So, in this pic I used PS to create layers with an orignal photo, tossed to B/W and then I used a cut out of the zx2 and layers it over the image. I then used the gradient tool to loose the original colors that were in the windows and what not.. whatcha thing, any tips, suggestions?

here played with some highlights

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v3...er/Celica1.jpg

some more of dodge and softning..

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v3...Celicaedit.jpg

try whitning the car a bit without blowing out the sky to much. Car more white, sky a bit more dark and white. 3rd picture is good, but the sky is gone

Yea unless he likes it that way. Nice looking celica :). Black cars are hard to photography :(.

Original looks best.

That is a lot of words for something as simple as: "I selected the car, then I desaturated the rest of the picture."

oo what front bumper is that on the celica? looks like a mugen smiley although i don't think there is a mugen kit for anything else but Honda's (is that true?)

and which function in PS to soften the image? :o

There's two different ways that I use:

1) Diffuse Glow filter

2) 2nd layer + Gaussian blur + decrease layer opacity

ooo i haven't played with PS except with the basic ones like levels, brightness/contrast :(

how about how he accentuated the highlights? how would one go about doing that in PS?

time to play with PS :)

Heres my version with a bit of masking and curve graphs
