The plastic sheet at the bottom would easily come off from hitting anything so I really had to seatbelt it down heheh

That's true, another thing about the DIY soft box is that it leaks light at the top and between the plastic sheet and the box. I used spoon.ek9's jacket to wrap around the box to cover the leak hahah

What did you do to light up interior?
Just shine the flashlight inside?

I'm getting worse and worse with this whole photography thing. I don't know how you guys do it.

Here's mine...



All the other ones look like crap. Looks neat on the camera's LCD dsiplay but terrible on the computer screen.

Yea, one suction cup, one super clamp and magic arm.
I also tried a different angle with both suction cups on the rear glass but I wanted to test out if I can drive with it. Turns out I can't. Has to be pushed. The rig was so short too. Oh well.

Looks neat. Weren't you trying to sell that before? Well if we go take some pictures, bring it along and we'll try it out.

I want to customize my boom so it can be bolted from underneath. I want to try a really down low angle.

I KNOW! That's what I'm saying. I'm gonna do it. I know it can be done. There are two drain holes in the trunk of my car and I can pop the rubber out. All I have to do is mount the boom to that. Drill some holes in the pole, some bolts, nuts and washer and I'm set!
Buuuut.. it might bend the bottom of the trunk as it looks kind of thin.

I'll do it one day soon and if it works out I'll let you know. Unless one is able to find heavy duty uber magnets. But that might not be safe as well.

haha yeah... i went a little overboard but it's quite useful in pitch dark situations like this. there's actually bigger LED pads available! i think it was up to 30 LED? perhaps more?

Here are a few of my photos from the past few days.











I wish I had a tripod with me for that last shot so I could get rid of the noise. I thought the lighting was pretty good for being a random spot.

Cool!! I have a very similar idea for a photo I want take.

EDIT: Here's my photo



I had to do an oil change this morning. I also did some rig shots later on but it was more of scouting for cool places to take rig photos. I tried it but didn't turn out right.

Here are some photos of two LP560s I saw the other day. Let me know what you guys think of them.









Also here is a photo of a Spyker at Miles end Motor Cars.



And here is my first attempt at removing the background from a cars interior photo. I'm just not happy with how much noise is in the photo.
