LOL!!! expensive? not for Christchurch :LOL:

nice DOF Daniel, it might have looked a bit more dramatic if your perspective was lower down (if you know what I mean ;) )

looking forward to seeing more of your 52 :)

I did take one from a more acute angle, but it looked like I'd used a tilt-shift lens and I didn't like it as much as this one.


TBH I did have a much better 'idea' for the theme, but ran out of time today due to an unscheduled shopping trip to Southampton :bonk:
 
Hiya Daniel,

Good take on the theme for this week, I would have never thought of this one, so good on you.

I like it as it is.

Cheers

Dawn :)
 
Still going (which is an achievement in itself)...

Naughty Monkeh emptied a NEW box of teabags to play 'hide-and-seek' !

:LOL::LOL::LOL: Daniel that is fab! I love the idea and thought you have put into this shot. The composition and colours are great! Focus fab and it looks pin-sharp to me.

Well done!

Look forward to seeing what you come up with for the next theme.

Cheers

Dawn :)
 
What a fun idea. :)
It's good that so many people are thinking outside of the box in the 52 - apart from monkeh of course, who is determined to stay inside the box.

Thank you for the comments everyone :)
 
Brilliant, love the humour :cool: Made me smile when I looked at this one (y)
 
nice one daniel (y) love it ;) great idea on theme well done look forward to seeing week 3 :)

It's also a great shot - really sharp and striking contrast in the colours

Unsure on this one... might change it if I have a flash of inspiration before Sunday.

Thanks Dan.

I still think I can come up with something better by the weekend... watch this space ;)
 
I'm watching this space, but I reckon you've already got a pretty good one in there ;)
Only 2 niggles from me :

-The reflections in the shiny surfaces are a bit distracting.
-I would have preferred a slightly wider crop to bring in more of the curve at the rear of the car.

Minor points, but if you were able to sort them out, then I reckon you're onto a winner with this idea (y)
Interested in what you're thinking of to better it . . . :thinking:


p.s. Monkeh really made me laugh :D
 
Like the style shot, perhaps slightly wider on the left to include the car badge, or do you think that could be more of a distraction rather than add to it?

And as others have said, the monkey put a big smile on my face :D

I did try that crop first, but I would have had to clone the number plate out and it would have been obvious as I am pants at photoshop.

Will have a go though...
 
Here's a different shot of the same subject, but with the M3 badge included and the numberplate removed (ish).

I would like to point out that this is NOT my car - I can't stand BMWs :p

I never have understood why they couldn't make the light on the bootlid line up with the rest of it :bang:

..better :)

Final go... light patch removed.

I prefer the composition of the first shot, it has a more abstract feel to it. Lighting is always going to be difficult unless you have the car in your studio, or the garage allowed you to erect a small linen gazebo to diffuse the lights :)

I took the shots at Autosport International last Sunday - the lighting was awful (and different on every stand). Thankfully I shot in RAW so WB wasn't too much of a problem, but I do need to invest in an SB600 soon, I think.
