I like the Skyline still shot, Sonny's evo side shot and the s-10

the 3 i don't find that great are the white civic facing the camera showing the front left side of the car, the silver rig shot evo ( it just feels blury, but then again maybe im a lil drunk) and last but not least the silver still s2000 shot. Hope I could help I don't know hardly anything about photography.

I like the silver evo with the bronze wheels 3/4 shot.
I like the Corvette with the birds (EPIC).
I like the profile shot of the white civic with CCWs.

I dislike the R35s detail shot.
I dislike the S2000 interior long exposure. (No interior detail looks somewhat amateur)
I dislike the 'just the wheel' shot of the civic.

Good game!

i'm surprised at how unanimous this is lol. i agree with the above posts. that GTR detail shot is just bad because the subject isn't top notch. the paint is all orange peely and the plastic is not pristine. and there's one gray s2000 rig shot that's really bland. anyway... site is good stuff.

I just scrolled down to the bottom before looking at everyones answers so I could give an unbiased opinion. All the pics look good, you have some nice skills.
Best (IMO):
1 Skyline still
2 S2K rolling Shot
3 The closeup of the exhaust tip in the picture after Clarks Supra
3 (Tie with above) Clarks Supra. Perfect timing to capture moment of launch!

Worst:
300M Tailight closeup
Civic Si front cornering shot, may need a little more angle
White Z still shot

Disclaimer: I am not a professional. These opinions belong to me and me only. I would like a picture from inside my Integra when I launch at the Christmas tree that looks kinda like the S2K interior moving shot. Thanks!

Dr.G35
11-29-2009, 10:14 PM
I like: Rolling 350z shot, Zo6 (2nd pic), and I guess the GTR or the 2nd evo pic
Dislike: wheel pics, 300c pic, and GTR exhaust pic

BTW I am in no way a pro at photography I'm just giving my personal opinion.

Amateur Opinion

Edit: also did not look at others posts, and YES get on flickr and join Automotive Photographers for Hire, if you havent already, and put up some of these shots!!

4 Best:

Skyline - Fantastic Composition, Crisp but easy on the eye, No unwanted reflections in paint, I believe that dusk and dawn are the best time to shoot black so good time choice.

350Z Rig Shot - I like the color palette, looks like you desaturated *if so, good choice*... but something feels off with the motion blur, did you add some more post shoot?

2nd Z06 - Again, perfect composition. Love the birds. Sunlight adds contrast without drawing eye away from subject like in first Z06 shot.

Last Evo Shot - perfect composition, crisp, no bad reflections, background colors made subject pop.


Least Favorite

1st Evo shot - Like the color palette but the shot feels plain. looks like its started out as a wide angle profile shot and then distorted back to normal... could just be me, but something feels off.

1st Z06 - feels like the sun takes away from the car.. my eye keeps getting drawn to it.

350Z corner shot - feels plain, I feel like the crisp white car against the red background would make for an epic shot, but it just feels like its missing something. Maybe a different angle, focal length, or DOF...?

SI Wheel closeup - compare to the 350 wheel closeup. Looks like the 350's wheel shot was well thought out and composed whereas the SI just has the wheel dead center with some body panels around them.

HiRide
11-30-2009, 02:18 AM
Oh hey, more pics....

Add to Favorites:

Mustang and S10 - Awsome Rig shots, great contrast and composition

Dislike

GTR Exhaust : just feels like a random snap

S2k slow shutter interior shot - no interior detail almost feels blurry.

allout13
11-30-2009, 09:45 AM
My favorites were
gtr shot 1
civic side shot 8
mistubishi 9

least favorites
s2000 rolling shot 10
exhaust shot 16
taillight shot 300 last


... I had a really hard time picking my favorites.
the corvette with the birds in the corner and the 350z in front of the brick could also be in my top three

11-30-2009, 10:24 AM
ditch the second pic, the supra launching, and the exhaust pic from the second page.

everything else looks decent.

edit: i guess if you wanted to tighten up things even more- ditch one or two of the other evo's. its overwhelmingly evo-heavy.


nice sky in that old ass iroc one

meh on the
300 brake light, the exhaust tip shot, and the rolling back/side shot of the s2k

homemadeS14s
11-30-2009, 12:30 PM
I like: R35(first pic), Zo6 (Bird Pic), and Evo (2nd pic)

Regardless of my opinion lol ..... Ur Photography Skillzz are Top Notch!!

Sir_Christopher
11-30-2009, 01:36 PM
i liked all of them, i even had to look at the others!, the Chipmonk one was the bomb!

but if i had to choose the 3 least, was the 2 rim shots and the exhaust with the wheel behind it

11-30-2009, 01:36 PM
I like the 3rd evo shot, the 1 r35 shot, b stones vette with birds,

Not big on the ccw'd civic 1 st shot, not big on the 300c last pic, the 1st 350z pic

blondebabe36
11-30-2009, 01:52 PM
:goodjob: do:
si in front of doors, very nice
350 in motion, good motion and good detail
evo with nice sky, really good (suggestion: crop/come in closer with car more too the left and get that pretty orange tree in it)
mustang in motion, nice fireworks!
s10 in motion

:umno: dont:
s3000 w dark background, is good but looks too psd
vet in front of fence with shadow cast over it, the car is too flat, but nice pic
s3000 in motion, not digg'n the angle, but has some good detail for motion


*& lovin the website!*

11-30-2009, 01:53 PM

2-s2k interior shot
3-r35 exhaust

bonezMTA
11-30-2009, 02:03 PM
i love the Skyline..it's just perfect. The evo angled shot is nice too. it just goes together and the rolling 350z is nice too.
I don't like still s2k shot..the setting is to dark to me.
The mustang shot looks like it's supposed to be in a commercial. i mean mustangs are suppose to look mean. not all happy and jolly. (just saying)
And the 300 Hemi C Badge shot doesn't attract my attention. It looks boring.

But other than that....GREAT SHOTS!!! you are talented

Dislikes:
Close-up of the SI - something about the background
The first S2K rolling shot - don't like the color
The exhuast close-up - don't like how the car/rim looks in the background

Hope this helps! I don't know shit about photography, just gave my honest opinions. Good luck man and keep up the good work

Love (from left to right)
#3 Black evo
#8 Charlies Si from the side.....amazing
#11 Silver s2000 still shot. perfect in everyway

DISlike (From left to right once again)
#4 Blue corvette, recrop this photo a different way, maybe using "Rule of thirds" i would change my mind and it would be on top list instead.
#1 R35...everyone loves a R35, content is good. but the photo just doesnt look right to me for some reason. once i find out what it is, I will edit and let youknow.
Pg.2 #1 Muffler shot with R34 in background. nice photo, but not something i would put on your folio.


Good luck with your portfolio. :goodjob:

I will say this without bias to the subject, because I think you're looking for our opinions about the best shot not the best car...so therefore:

best:
1)shot of mustang with fireworks in background
2)chrysler 300c taillight pic
3)shot of grey/black evo at about 40 degrees to the camera

worst:
1)silver s2k rig shot
2)pic of white civic that focuses on the ccw wheel
3)shot of green s10

i like the supra, it shows how long the rear end of a car can get when you leaving the line, and it the only picture i have seen like that.
i also like the s2000, its a great use of the drop top and how it says 149.
my last one is sliver evo, just great skills all round

my dislike one is the s10... not a big fan of trucks, the the r35 with the time attacks, i feel that you could use better use of the cars and the last one is 300c i feel that its plane and over used( that shot )

but all around great pictures, and keep up the great work.:goodjob::goodjob:

I like the white 350z rolling shot, the flat black looking evo 1/4 shot, and the silver s2k rolling shot.

The ones I don't like as much are the interior shot of what I guess is an s2k cause its seems to dark to me, the exhaust pic, and the 300 taillights.

S2KJD
12-01-2009, 11:16 AM
i favor 1, 3, and 2nd from the last.

kind of just found 3 "dislikes" cause you asked but honestly liked them all: 2, 5, and 7

Nerdsrock22
12-01-2009, 12:36 PM
Dislike: Front Blue Corvette, something about the lighting just seems off. Seems too soft perhaps.
Dislike: silver Evo Rig shot. I think the angle was too wide, and the focus seems off a tad.
Dislike: soft focus wedding shot (woman with baby) Not a fan of the super soft focus, a bit contrived (imho)

Like: Mustang fireworks...powerful shot, captures America
Like: black R35, awesome setting, great lighting
Like: drag Supra, timing is everything. period.

Very impressed all around. Nothing in there is bad.
