Fair play those pics could be in a magazine no problem.
And I have a hankering for an escort with a cossie lump and locked diff.

Thank you for the comments chaps.

I'm still learning, so I'm happy with how these pics came out.

Kit used was: Nikon D3300, 35mm prime, 55-200 lens, 10-20 lens, shot in RAW and then adjusted in Photoshop. It's great to hear positive comments.

It helps that the car is a cool looking thing. The vibrance of the colour, with the location (which is where the car is stored) helped make it a nice car to photograph.

Stunning pictures and what a car.

I just kept banging pictures onto a couple of Samsung phones untill the batteries run out, but you get the picture.

It`s faded a bit.

@Scrooge Anything I should change when doing these kinds of stuff? Your clued up when it comes to pics of cars so your input is appreciated.

Adjustments on editing, etc.

I think they're better than most of mine!

They look perfect to me, if I HAD to do anything it'd be turn the highlights down a tad and bring the shadows up a bit.

 

[Jekyll]

As in, highlights on the headlights so there darker, and the shadows are lighter?

 

[imprezaworks]

Bet that's worth a tidy sum?

Yep but only by a tiny bit to bring a bit more detail out, I like the general glum feel of the pics, they look great!

I need to get my camera out again
