roplusbee · 08-29-2011, 08:18 AM

Awesome shots. For some reason that garage looks familiar, but I have never been to FL yet..............

SeeyaBud86 · 08-29-2011, 09:25 AM

They came out nice man.

tonythetiger · 08-29-2011, 10:51 AM

Awesome pics! Love those wheels!!

Rickey89 · 08-29-2011, 12:31 PM

nice pictures, so much so that a few of the shots are now saved to my computer for wallpaper backgrounds for my iphone and laptop,

makes me reconsider having gotten my z in brilliant silver,

NewYorkJon34 · 08-29-2011, 02:10 PM

I'm glad to hear you guys like the pics, we take these for fun & also for the community to enjoy

Footloose301 · 08-29-2011, 02:44 PM

Not bad Jon! I need to get an SLR

Zerafian · 08-29-2011, 02:55 PM

Its amazing what an extra $10-$12k in mods will do for your car lol. They are the same car but totally different.

I never relized how much better amuse rear looked then stock. Its a perfect comparison with two white Z's

KamiSpeed · 08-29-2011, 03:11 PM

cars look good, the wheel choices on both are great

dP3NGU1N · 08-29-2011, 03:22 PM

Great looking cars.

I don't like a lot of the photos though, a lot of composition issues and the whole off kilter camera orientation doesn't work if the car's not in motion. Photographers tilt the camera in order to give the viewer a sense of speed in a still frame, however, the rest of the picture needs to imply motion as well. If the picture is dynamic but the object is still then it looks like someone has a problem lining up their horizon rather than purposefully manipulating the viewer's perspective.

Great looking pics & Z's. I've never been a big fan of the Amuse, but it white it looks very nice! Nice work gentlemen!

ScGRaceR · 08-29-2011, 05:42 PM

I knew there would be 1 person that got all technical about these pictures, lol

Not bad results since I just bought the camera four days ago. Plus the only lens I had on me at the time was my 70-300VR, so I had to take alot of the pictures farther back then I wanted to.

Thanks for all the compliments guys, we appreciate it as we did it for the community, alil rep couldn't hurt tho

I'd suggest spending some time practicing your focusing, and learning your cameras AF system. Other than that and the composition, I think you're off to a good start.

The cars look great.

NewYorkJon34 · 08-29-2011, 10:01 PM

I didn't really use the AF system too much, I took most of these manually focusing myself. This is my first SLR, so the more I use it, the better I'm getting. Thanks again for the advice.

At the next photoshoot I'll have my painted headlights, a different lens & hopefully some models
