My Gayata getting its first wash in 3 months

 

^Very nice. I like the wheels!

 

very nice.. but to me the yellow is really overbearing and takes a little from the car.

 

The main reason I chose that location is because the yellow compliments the vehicle color. Living in Amish country, my shoot locations are limited so I can't pick and choose like those who live in the larger urban settings. I can drive to Philly and be like a kid in a candy store finding good shoot locations.

For red vehicles, I'll look for blue and yellow back drops. For blue vehicles, I'll look for silver or red back drops, etc etc

Great... I take that back, awesome shot.

 

few pics from Yosemite trip last month. The first 2 using Mark III with 24-70L while the last one use 500 f/4 IS lens. No cropping on the last 2 images.

 

My first attempts at BIF shots. I found out one thing... tracking small birds through the viewfinder is tough, especially when there's trees, houses, and poles in the way.

Some flying rats I seen the other day. Someone was giving them their exercise. Figured I'd give birding a try. They were too fast when they were up close. This has got me thinking 500mm lens.

 

This bish got in my way, was trying to get shots of the newspaper boxes, but regardless, I like the shot now even better

what colour back drop would you recommend for black cars?

 

Pretty much anything but black would work.

 

gr? is that barry's 300zx in the picture you posted?

 

Yeah. I did a shoot with him last fall for the Downshift calendar contest. I told him I could get a stock-looking Z in the calendar. He didn't think it was possible. I won that one

 

anyone who's seen you shoot would know not to take that bet
