Pictures with the newer camera (warning lots of pics)

[heliochrome85]

what i really want is an action shot where im in the car, and someone is taking a pic of me, from another car. Small aperture would cause blur in the background, whihc would be freaking awesome. Too bad i dont know any competent photographers in the area.

save me.

also, nice edit of your sig. although it doesnt roll off the tongue as well as my version.

as they say in urban areas:

IT ALL GOOD.

Very beautiful pictures. I'd like to see more of your work!!

If I find some more cool places to shoot, I will definitely do so. I'm not in that area anymore, not for another month or so. In the mean time, I might retake pictures that I've taken before with this camera and try and find some new spots, but it won't be anything like I shot above. Of course that's all contingent on when my bumper gets fixed.

I absolutely love photography, especially with vehicles. There are so many ways to tweak a picture to perfection, it's a fun challenge!

The best part is there's not much to tweak in your pictures! You rock, sir.

The biggest challenge is location and angles. So I just find a location I like and take tons of pictures and then I can pick out the best ones. The only tweaking I have to do is some color correction and do effects to some of them in Photoshop.

Going to work on this shoot this evening in Photoshop. I'll edit my first post when I'm finished. Check back tonight--should see some cool effects.

Updated. A lot of the backgrounds I liked so much I couldn't bring myself to doing too many effects...so far. I've been through just over half of them, the color has been enhanced on all of them...some of them you can really tell a difference if you remember from the previous ones.

two points1.) the saturation is cranked up way too high on some of the pics.2.) when are you going to stop failing at life and get a Flickr account? Photobucket is 2 years ago. Flickr is the future.

Yes, I just realized that. I was working on a different monitor and it looks the same way on mine...the other monitor apparently sucked balls. I'm currently redoing them.

lol. good luck. they dont need much touchup. they look great as is.

I'm currently redoing them.

Finally done. Can this count for a submission for the calendar even though its past due?

[smockers83]

Anyone want to help choose pictures for the calendar...I've got it down to 27 pictures (the calendar is still on).

[heliochrome85]

put up a thread, and we'll try to help as best we can.
