Petrol Blue 182 Photo Shoot (Mega Pixel Heavy?)

[Ricardos]

I've owned this Petrol Blue 182 since April this year and this is the first time i've taken some ok photos of it as i've just bought myself a new Canon bridge camera. So i gave it a wash after work and headed out to 3 locations not far from me, i'm sure some will recognise the location in some of the pics.

Comments and criticism about photo quality and the Clio are welcome

That's officially my new favourite MK2 Clio.

I'd love to own that.

 

[cjgower]

Very very nice. Looking good

 

[walkie86]

Stunning.

182 Cup wheels are the future.

Good quality photos too mate. Just watch distracting things in the background - like that boom gate!

 

[Gandi69]

that looks a great

 

[ChrisP_182]

[Fletcher]

Looks tidy. I much prefered your RB though.

 

[JamesBryan]

Thought you had Christopher's RB?

 

[Leeshez]

Stunning .

 

[TWS]

colour looks mint in these photo's, captured it really well

 

[_Tom]

I normally hate petrol blue however in your pics it looks ace.

 

[Poopensharten]

I'd say this is about the only 182 i'd swap my Cup for!

 

[Austin-182]

That looks brilliant, best thread in here for a long time.

 

[d6n]

That's officially my new favourite MK2 Clio.

I'd love to own that.

Buy it, it's for sale

 

[TheEvilGiraffe]

Should have told me BEFORE you went out

As mentioned - distractions.... watch out for them.

Try to think about the 'rule of thirds'...

One personal annoyance (you're not too bad - but for future and for anyone else reading this) is where people take a photo from the same angle and basically just zoom in. It's the same photo.. :S (81 & 82 for instance )

Overall .. 7/10 for effort. Good work

 

[Ash.]

Looks great, best Clio media thread on here in ages!

 

[Renault Wolverhampton]

awesome one of my favourite cars on here

 

[Unit1976]

Pictures are awesome, mate!!!
Even the car!!!

I'd love to own a PB but I don't.
Yesterday I was viewing a PB, but unfortunately it wasn't a good one. :headno:

Really appreciate ALL the comments in the thread, thank you. I've been out again this evening, i thought i'd head out a lot earlier as it's really sunny with little or no clouds. Anyway, i won't bore you again with too many photos.

Stunning great shots!

 

[MonacoDan]

Love petrol blue, excellent shots.

 

[Craig.]

That looks stunning & looks like such a lovely example

 

[jesus]

Lovely photos

 

[leeds_182]

Looks really good in those shots, pal.

 

[mi16chris]

Lovely , a refreshing change to the normal colours too

 

[Niall]

Great locations and the car looks good too. Just a tip for next time though - read up on composition when photographing, you tend to put the car in the centre of the frame which isn’t pleasing to the eye, so if you look at one of the thousands of articles on composition (or more specifically car photography composition) you’ll get what I’m on about

 

[TheEvilGiraffe]

Popped back to the secret location tonight for some pics with Rich.

Eventful hour or so, dodging doggers, weirdos, campers, chavs doing WRC practice and the occasional low flying EasyJet Airbus...

Far from perfect - but it's gone midnight and I've literally whacked these through StarStax and fired them at Flickr

 

[Mr R.]

Cracking mate, so when can you do a photo shoot with me???

 

[Richyy182]

What a cracking thread. Love all the pics.
Nice motor

 

[Darren S]

The 4th pic on the first batch - perfect.

Every time I see a PB182 thread, I kick myself for not stumping up the extra £1,200 when I ordered mine. Stunning colour.

I would have actually chosen petrol blue over liquid yellow, given the chance.

[Gandi69]

photoshoot 025 is the best shot in my view, feel like I should have a large print of that up on a wall in my house but i'm not sure my missus would agree

 

[dezmondo]

Wow, looks awesome. Great pics and a great example of the PB, well done!

 

[.J.a.m.e.s.]

Very nice. In need of some silver visions
