^ ooh CLOSE! lol!!

in the second pic, what you're seeing is a prelude and an SiR behind it, not a wrx wagon. =D

I'd like to know if there's any way to get rid of that graininess... I forgot my tripod and was forced to use a higher ISO setting than I woulda liked.

I would take forever to fix those images... they're so dark with so much grain, that the information just isnt there.

To repeat so many others once again when it comes to photoshop "Garbage in, garbage out".

Good composition though.

you need a tripod if you are shooting with lighting like that. because you shot without one, u had to use high ISO and that's where the noise came from... so... get a tripod to use next time

brightening it up in PS make the noise much more apparent so no luck there

That's a great idea.

If someone else seconds that idea, we can start a photochop challenge: Post a picture, and see who can create the most appealing in post-processing.



Any interest?

I seem to be having problem taking pictures at night. These photos has been p-shoped so the car will be visible. Any hint on how I can take brighter picture at night without using flash or extra lighting?





Thanks.

it's really fairly simple, you need a longer shutter speed which will accordingly let more light into the photo.

you WILL need a tripod or at very least something to set the camera on so it does not move at all or you will get blurry photos.

if you have a point and shoot, it may or may not allow you to take slower photos. if not, you are kind of hosed!
