lol i said a lot of photos...haha sorry i guess?

yea man, you can't post 20 pictures and then ask for feedback. Pick 2 or 3 that you like best, and then ask for feedback. Every picture is different, and no one is gonna sit here and go through all of the photos and give you feedback.

Aside from the fact that a bunch have random white and black strips of nothing across them, biggest thing I noticed as I scrolled through right quick was:
1) distracting background. You've got light poles coming out of the roof, random cars in the background, it's distracting from the subject.
2) your shadow is cast on the car

The pictures towards the end are "better" than the ones in the beginning in my opinion.

Check out the 'rule of thirds'. The last couple pictures use it quite well, but the first, say, half, dont.

+1 and I see your reflection in a couple of the shots. Lens flare and glare are not easy on the eyes. Overexposed sky. Too much sky..

EDIT: lol you removed the ones that I liked best. haah!

Well I don't know what to think about the first picture, it's very boring and basic... try a new location.

2nd pic nice location, but change the angle so those signs don't get in the way...

It'll take you months or years before you get your pictures looking how you want, but only if you pick up skillz... not everyone can get a DSLR and do it right.

Try not having poles or trees sticking out of the roof of the car.

+1, keep the background clean and not to distracting if you want it to be busy!

so my friend's sister just got a red Aston Martin Vantage. Unfortunately I didn't have the proper gear readily available for an outdoor shoot at the time, hopefully sometime this spring.

Damn! Ballin!

The car's awesome cause it tells you when "Tea time" is and that your private helicopter is near you.

You gotta take a picture of the "Power, Beauty, Soul" thing it does when it starts up

ColinK 01-04-2010 07:41 AM

mmmmm, aston martin :)

I think you'd get used to the counter-clockwise tach after a while.

underscore 01-07-2010 12:28 PM

Oh sweet mother of god Aston Martin.

^^ So what are we looking at then if they're not racing? They're just normal cars...

skyxx 01-11-2010 04:52 PM

I think he's pointing out that the car has a "Swedish Racing Gold" colour. :lol
