Yeah, I know.
What Kind of DSLR are you using man???
Oh BTW Clean car!!!
did you use a tripod? if not.. use one, it makes a difference even if your a beginner
I give out reps....
its a nikon d40, and yeah, i used a tripod, notice the other si driving behind me..... mind you i dont really no much about photography but the basics i do however understand the important stuff, now i just have to use it in conjunction with each other.
Yeah, I know.
dude your car is so clean, i love it!Originally Posted by Dougk1401
Yeah, I know.
I looove shooting with a DSLR... Welcome to the world of even "ok" shots looking damn good.
But I like that shot a lot.
Fuck stance. Stance is for kids in skinny jeans with Justin Beiber haircuts. You don't need stance when you got swagger.
clean FG2, luv da color n it slam sexy
nice pic man, where did you take that.
HF
It loosk good, and 1 to 15 isn't a bad aratio. with a DSLR being so instant, you should have a keep ratio of about 3 to 10 soemtiem, but keep in mind with such a snap-happy camera, you should take 100s
^^ Yeah, I drew a frame of a man running on each fan blade. That is him running at idle
nice shot, and cleannn car.
Picture looks good, and your car looks even better....

Always loved that color on the new Si's, looks great bro. Reps.
We can go "shooting" sometime when Circuit City decides to quit being stupid.. I sent my camera in for repair like a month ago. They said 3 weeks ago that it was totalled and they were sending out a gift certificate for a new camera and it should be in my mailbox in 10 days.Originally Posted by BUGMAN
That was 3 weeks ago.

Nice pic man, looks great
I'm saying if you took 15 shots and deemed one good enough to post, then that's about right for a beginner, however since the DSLR is such a picture-friendly camera, you should get into the habbit of going t0 and doing shoots with 2or 3 hundread shotts, and by your ratio of keep to trash, that should be about 20-30 ish good shots. As you get better and better at shooting, you'll find that you're only deleting about 4 out of 10 pictures or so, but still taking 1 or 2 hundread pics, and thus having about 40 or 50 usable shots every time, and 50 good pictures in one day is a success, that's about what a professional has to do.Originally Posted by "ridge"racer

You have a SLR and don't know what they mean? Ha Ha you sound like me.Originally Posted by "ridge"racer
Someone was trying to explain a few things to me a while back and I was lost in the first 5 seconds of the conversation.
Hey no offense to your car because it really looks clean but I never thought about trying to make a newer Civic look "cool".
What kind of wheels are those and is that spoiler made for a Civic? How much did you lower it?
Here is one of mine that I use as a DD when I am not in my work truck and just wondering. I mean since yours looks so sleek I figured I may want to play with mine in the future.
Camera phone so forgive the quality.
nice shot. clean car. goodjob.
To reciprocate your statement, You have a civic and dont know what an si looks like??? ha ha, im just playing, the wheels are stock, the wing is stock,Originally Posted by BUGMAN
and im dropped on buddyclub coilovers, i have a million other mods, but i will show those in picture form later, for now you can drool over my si!
Yeah, I know.
Also, have you been to 8thcivic.com ? you should check it out, one of the best car forums ive ever been on, and you will notice some really nice rides.
Yeah, I know.
Hm I tell ya what. The next Sonic meet in Athens bring your SI and I will show ya what a fully loaded one looks like with Navi and the 8 disc changer.Originally Posted by "ridge"racer
They did not have the Si available when I bought the 3 Civics and the 2 Accords or I would of picked it up then. I can say that there is not a ton of difference to me except for the option package and the power displacement.
i have navi, a tomtom, which cost me 160.00 instead of the 1600.00 extra for the factory navi which would be stupid to buy. what could be more fully loaded than my car? a mugen si maybe,
does his interior look like this, does he have push start? does his engine bay look like this?
S2000 push start
JDM Type R Shift knob
Civic Si console trim
08 Si shift boot
Red Steering Wheel emblem
sorry, but im pretty sure i have the cleanest 8th gen, not to bragg, but thats whats been told to me countless times.
Yeah, I know.
All brand new cars are clean. Hell it ain't hard to keep one clean for the first year or so but yeah yours is very nice and don't worry about bragging too much it doesn't bother me one bit. If I wanted 5 like yours they would be on the way to my house now. I just thought the lil Si was cute and with almost 200 whopping horse power I ordered one while purchasing the others.Originally Posted by "ridge"racer
I am still interested in making the non-SI that I have look better but don't want to make you stoop to my level by any means.
His who? I bought them last week so not sure who you are referring to.
I have nothing against the Tom Toms since I have several of the 2nd and 3rd gens along with a 720 and a 930 but the style of the factory Navi just looks better to me than crap hanging off the windshield or laying in the passenger seat. Just my thoughts and not trying to argue opinions at all. Every one has their points.
I was actually looking for help instead of a pecker contest but thanks anyway. No offense meant in any way or fashion just trying to get a little more educated on these cars. Most of the people I have met on here aren't so far out of my class.
You have a nice ride and sorry I took up your time Sir.
why so many civics? how old are you? are you a little older than most people, it just seems like your personality would reflect this opinion of mine, Im not sure what your talking about in your post, If there is anything you want to know about the car let me know, i wasnt being a ****, but you said you hadnt seen one with a wing and hadnt noticed my wheels?? its all stock on the outside. go to 8thcivic.com, you will find perhaps any imaginable question you may have about your car there.
Yeah, I know.
i just started too with a d40. your picture looks great. i have never used a tripod yet.
I may have just read ya wrong. I think I got ya by almost 10 years if your birthday info is correct but my taste is open to just about anything but "RICE". The Civic that I will be running around in is the only one I am probably going to play with other than the SI.Originally Posted by "ridge"racer
Probably take the SI wheels and put them on mine and get another set for the SI.
Not sure where I will go from there.
what does age have to do with what car you drive. sh!t when i am 80, i will have a nice clean car.
nice shots man, love the clean white si, don't see many white ones
yeah, i wasnt sure what you were talking about i guess, but yeah, i was gonna do the same thing, get an lx and put si wheels on it, im waiting for some better wheels so the car looks right, but that costs a lot of money these days!Originally Posted by BUGMAN
Yeah, I know.
lmfao @ OP trying to go toe to toe with Bugman
You obviously have no idea that you're trying to pick a fight with the nicest/most sensible guy on this forum. Bugman does more for others in a day than you probably do in a year.
Fuck stance. Stance is for kids in skinny jeans with Justin Beiber haircuts. You don't need stance when you got swagger.
no ones trying to pick a fight dude, settle down.Originally Posted by xPhantomSilviax
