[theduck]

Images dont look nay bad. Cant really give you pointers without knowing what you wanna achieve

 

[Beef-Mc]

Pervy Ph1's, look good likes.

 

[VibeFliClioGrande]

looking good mate... never though about dual optics/angels like mine?

 

[Gaz85]

Dave where is the new bird s**t modification youve been telling me is hot!?

Cal man we need close ups of it tbh!:rasp:

 

[renclio]

using a D70s and a tripod provided by Dave, i am looking to achieve a much better quality of pictures and lighting etc

 

[Schweppy]

My god. Flame red looks epic!

Like a lot!

 

[Rob]

Ph1 Flamers are just p**n!! Its what i'd love next but i just dont think i could go to what is essentially the same colour!!!

You got the 172 rear bumper on yours now renclio?

I have dual optics and hid's going to be fitted the endish of this month


Gaz he woulda killed me if i took a close up tbh

lighting seems fine as does image quality, slightly soft focus in places but nothing really to worry about.

Yea daves car is nice, and yea phase 2 172 rear bumper is on, and also i have got a full 172 front end coming if i wanted to fit it

 

[Rob]

Epic, where did you get the dual optics and HID kit from if you dont mind me asking?

 

[renclio]

i bought the dual optics from the breakers yard CIT-REN i believe they are called and HID's are the cheapy hong kong ones which seem to be pretty well sought after

The focus seems to be slightly out, how do i sort that out mate ? (camera noob im affraid sorry?)

he has been telling me he loves the look next time i think you should get a few of it, sure he'd approve.

Call him back the now get some more

 

[theduck]

Easiest way is to switch it to manual focus and do it by eye tbh

 

[renclio]

Yea get a few shots of the cars together before the meet and possibly go and get food or something, should be a good night

 

[rich19]

both cars looking great ren, gotta say Daves paint is looking great (clean or not clean).

i`ve learnt that with taking pictures the best thing you can do is just keep practicing and play around with the settings.

 

[Ali]

Ph1 looks nice! Carpark pics are extremely difficult to get right.

 

[VIICarCare]

i love that red 1!!!!!

 

[whatisjustis]

I'm always going to be a sucker for a red head

You're little black number is coming along nicely though mate. A Sport rear bumper would be my next purchase.

 

[renclio]

^ sport rear bumper is on mate headlights and hid's are going on next


Thanks everyone for the good comments

 

[whatisjustis]

Good work chap.

 

[renclio]

I am going to be updating my project thread today so if your intersted in the update have a look later and let me know what you think

 

[Gally]

Looks good Cal. Creeping around Livi looking for slit

 

[renclio]

Yep just checking for the gash mate, just the usual

 

[col182]

love the flamer, crackin wee car!...

 

[Butler]

Make sure you are using autofocus, set up a focus point on the camera for the front of the car. Try and use a smaller aperture (larger number) and longer shutter speed. When you post process the images, up the saturation and contrast and use the unsharp mask tool on photoshop for maximum clarity. Also try and remember the rule of thirds in terms of composition.

 

[jesus]

Nice pics mate, love that flamer.

 

[Djw Dave]

Cheers for all the good comments guys

I WILL wash mines for the meet on the 7th (read will as maybe)

Ps Cal how tidy was that bird in that car!

 

[rich19]

Dave, what suspension is yours sitting on. loving the ride height in the pictures!

 

[Ridahz]

Very nice flamer Dave! Looking as fresh as normal :approve:

@ Ren Clio, good pics! Nice clio too looks very fresh! But imo you should do the badge black, colour code the front bumper and spray the wheels black! Will look absolutely ace imo! What you think?

 

[Dee1983]

Very nice

 

[Djw Dave]

Dave, what suspension is yours sitting on. loving the ride height in the pictures!

Koni adjustable shocks and eibach sport lines! It really handles well and the height is good, not overly low.

Cheers
