First night photo shoot
Well fellas. This is the first time I've posted pics of my car. My buddy who's into photography took the pics. We really want to master the art of night photography so any suggestions would be helpful. Thanks
My car is an 03 enthusiast. unfortunately stock.
::EDIT:: fixed aspect ratio of pics

the pictures look pretty good but there is some noise(grain). I'm no expert so i could be wrong but if i was to guess...it looks like your friend used a really high ISO speed and a semi quick shutter speed to prevent shaking. Did you guys use a tripod?

Also if it's cold out, I notice that digital cameras just get a little more noisy naturally.. no way around that really.. you can also use some grain removal programs like neat image or noise ninja as a last resort.. If you could preserve the EXIF information in the pics it would help a lot too if you want someone to critique your pics..
Also tell him to clean his sensor or his lens.. The first two pics have what looks like some dirt on it which certainly doesn't help..
None of the pics looks particularly sharp either.. dunno if that's the "kit lens" he's using(which is usually not very good, especialy if it's the canon 18-55mm..again dunno if he's shooting with a canon DSLR) but he may want to look at a different lens or try different f-stop settings to find the sweet spot..
I know that's a lot but good luck LOL
