1st timer!? Bloody brilliant mate. What camera were you using?

Toms_clio · Jul 27, 2011

Where was my invite? Lol

awesome photos mate, both cars look the nuts!

GazBevan · Jul 27, 2011

Some great shots there mate and the cars are looking great!

Good first go with DSLR mate, they're looking nice and sharp. What gear are you using? You can tell you've got some natural talent as the wheels are facing the right way in each shot

nothing worse than a cracking pic with the wheel turned showing rubber instead of rim

Just keep playing with various angles, detail shots with wide aperture etc etc. It really is an endless hobby!

My only tip would be when shooting more than 1 car, the composition is much more interesting when they're not parked parellel/end to end etc etc. Get them parked randomly and it makes things much more interesting and creates unique opportunities for detail shots

Probably true. What about Glaxo or the industrial estate if u go straight over the roundabout at the Edinburgh Way Tesco?

Jekyll · Jul 27, 2011

ive done the latter in a previous thread. not tried glaxo but i shall, just for you

Ye deffo, i love OEM & little subtle touches that go un-seen by the untrained eye

Slippers · Jul 27, 2011

Thanks Jekyll. I drove through Harlow on Friday on my way back from Surrey. Its been ages since I've been there. Its changed a bit, like the roundabout that u drive through now near church Langley lol!

Jekyll · Jul 27, 2011

yeah, but its still a dump! hence the bluewater pics

Slippers · Jul 27, 2011

Haha! Well I didn't like to say. Looks like they were well worth the effort tho!

My selected photos from the evening. Sorry I didn't get many of yours Mark, as you know my memory card filled up. (note to self: get new memory card before lakes trip).
