Puregroove, Dirty Octopus and I met up today to try and get some pics, but were faced with technical difficulties, horrible traffic, getting lost, and a breakdown. :(

But thanks to their hot cars, i was able to get a couple.

Thanks for looking.

The editing is a little too over done IMO. Remind me of HDR shots! But, good to see out of the oridinary every now and then. I give them :goodjob:

yeah the locales are kinda meh. I couldn't find a building with an outlet to power my flash with, and then when we left that building up there we got caught in traffic and D.O.'s car overheated so that kinda put an end to things.

But thank you for the kind words guys.

my last one. less p/s for those who dont like the overediting.

Strobists: please imagine an AB800 at full power hitting the front, and another at full power hitting the sides. Had my "run the strobes off my car" plan worked, that is what would have happened.

*sorry about the limited poses, kinda have a small pool to pick from*

Some nice shots IMO, and of course some very nice cars! Don't really care for the mix-matching of the rims though.

lol... yep yep. I would be rockin' the full set of equips but one is too bald and the other gave out.

--great meeting you Andy. You take some killer shots. It's nice to have someone else's perspective on the car. It's like a breath of fresh air. You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to Nerdsrock22 again. DO, I felt like superman pushing your car in my soccer shorts/shirt and sandals--in ATL traffic on Marietta St. What, what... :eek: :eek:

nerdsrock, great shots! you should look into a power converter for your cig. lighter in your car to always plug your flash up to. puregroove, car is def. the sex. and DO, love the sol man, next time i see you i'll introduce myself. lol

06-22-2008, 01:24 AM
see thats the thing...i was running a power converter and it wouldn't power it, I'm not sure if the wattage was too low or what (i'm clueless when it comes to electrical stuff)...I'd appreciate any advice!

I don't know, i know we had a xbox in my buddies explorer running off of a converter and it never had any real issues. i'll find out how he was running his, and what kind he had and get back to you

ehhh pretty much...that was our first stop and i really didn't take a whole lot, I just wanted to get in front of that building, If I would have known it was my last chance for the day, we prolly would have camped there for a bit longer.

I appreciate all the advice and compliments. Thanks!
