domani, farker those shots turned out amazing.
the second one kinda brings down the rest, and the last image, i think needs the front wheel more flush to the car....
aside from that, i hate you  | |

I like this shot. Perhaps it's how the flare ends up being 1/3rd of the way into the frame.
What was your saturation setting for this? Looks like you bumped it up a bit. | ahh i havent played with saturation settings until now  and i like it
it was bumped up 20 i think... around there

That's definitely my favorite picture too.
Domani definitely takes the cake for best shot in the automotive category.
Here are two more recently edited pics of my beater:

Stuck body out the window, with arm extended out even further. It was actually kind of scary, since we were going 100+ and all...

Looks very brochure-like.
Take off the border, add the Audi logo on it, and bam, you got a nice little ad

everytime i shoot car shots, i find that to expose properly for highlights the shadow areas are too dark.
great exposure!
are you mostly shooting on overcast days with light behind you?

i think the little details u mention is all about exposure... just
lucky at that moment...
post process in order of sequence
1. auto contrast
2. add more contrast
3. remove the plate number
4. crop
5. border (which all of u hate LOL)
6. save for web.

for this particular shot, the sun was on the right of me and has already
been block by the mtn.... thus the soft lighting...
if possible, the light behind me would be best... and around
the dying day sun would be optimal...

i just double checked
and i saved @ 100%
edit: i did use auto level, just to see but didn't do much good, so it
was not necessary

Saving for web, I have a preset Action for saving to the desktop, at around 60. Reason for that? Web viewing will not really matter with a higher compression anyways. Usually means less bandwidth used, translating into faster loading images.

Domani here did a scout of the site before hand, and found the location a day ahead in preparation for returning there for a shoot.
Usually if you want good results, this is what you would want to do. Same thing for sunsets.....trekking to a spot a day ahead and timing the sunset first, will mean a world of difference.
