Hope you guys managed to take pictures, cuz I really wanna see some.
Uploaded some of the pics here, at the Media Section...

Cool! Posted up.

You have some nice picture taking skills, sir.

If you guys ever plan another one, I'll try to make it out this time if I'm not working. I'd love for you to "professionalize" my Z, too

Seriously dude... taking pictures is a piece of cake now with digital. Believe you me, they would look like utter crap without editing software. I get away with alot of mistakes. But yeah, bring your car out next time, and I'll be glad to take some pics for you.

pfft, mine don't come out as good as yours showoff.

here's a few samples I haven't got to edit any of them yet, I haven't even finished white balancing everything.


EDIT: Took out the pic of Jorge's Z because I didn't realize the license plate was fully readable at that angle.

I've balanced a few more that I could show you guys, but I haven't got to edit out the license plates yet so I didn't wanna post them up without your permission. I'll try to get more done after work today.

I'll post more pics later. No problem about the photoshoot. Always refreshing not to shoot my car.

But... if anybody has a model that would want to come out, I really want to do a CHICK + CAR shoot, which was the main reason I got the flashes. I won't show her face though, as some comments can be harsh on forums, so she just has to have a hot body. Or even maybe a car owner + car shoot.

And I wouldn't want to shoot more than we had yesterday if it was a night shoot again. The camera takes too long to capture the image. A day shoot would be ideal with lots of cars. We should start organizing another one. I'm thinking the Hawaii Kai beach like this:

Erwin help me white balance my pics, I can't get the DB Widebody Z to not look purple.
A daytime shoot would be nice so I can free hand it and get some cooler angles.

Load the full sized ones on Flickr, no adjustments, just straight from the cam if they are shot JPG. Otherwise, you can send me the RAW.

BTW, I posted the rest of the pics.

I hate post processing!!!!!! I hate it.

I know a couple girls that model, and might be interested to do some shots. I'll ask. Car owner + car shoot isn't a bad idea. It's like "Who drives that car? THAT guy does!"
