    Default Photoshoot with some friends (lots of pics(50), you've been warned)

    Hopefully even QD will allow this to qualify as a photoshoot. I took pictures with these same guys before but we did it again. We've never had the time to do a day shoot and I'd say my daytime photos are a heck of a lot better. Hope you see some pictures you like. thanks for looking,

    Chris

    The pictures seem a little grainy or unclear to me towards the top. Maybe the weather caused it? Otherwise they came out pretty good. I personally like night pictures with the right lighting more.

    Gah, 240 drivers.

    Is the 300 turbo?

    Did you take your vanity plate off for the pictures? I noticed the paper tag.

    Bozzio for president.

    The grainyness is mostly the cheap lens's fault. I haven't gotten the new tag for this Rx-7 yet. It's the same as the old one but I had to get some legal rights transferred so 1 letter is different. It's ROWE2RI instead of ROWE2RY, they're pronounced the same way Oh and the Z is N/A.

    1. I love the fact that you didn't resort to "angled" shots. Not once even. Reps for just that.

    2. Pictures are really good. I'm no photo critic, but you can tell it's a PAS. But a good one.

    3. Your watermarks are waaaay too big in some of the photos.

    4. Photoshoot? Lolol. I noticed you searching for my approval, lolol.

    5. Should have left the 240, Mustang and 300 out of the pics and just posted the RX7.

    Overall? +34. Later, QD.

    Lolol.
    1. Awesome
    2. I'm really sorry for the offense if I did so. Seriously.
    3. I read ya.
    4. Oh no, lolol. Not to move the cars around. I just advise that parking cars and taking pics does not constitute a photoshoot.
    5. I understand. I just like the RX7 much, much better. Old school for me.

    You're welcome. Later, QD.

    nice pics though your levels are off, little help that can fix it in photoshop:

    Image>Adjustments>Levels (not auto levels)

    on the bottom right you will see 3 eye droppers (from left to right) Black, Gray, White. Click on the black and sample the blackest point in the picture (in example below I chose the mustangs tire) now you need the gray point (i chose the gray trim on the trailer) then the whitest point (I used the rx7 paint).

    The difference?

    LOL do I come off as a newb that much. I am very familiar with levels. The levels were already adjusted, the car is an off-white in person.It's more like:

    The REAL original most photographer's won't show you:


    my adjustment:


    your adjustment(which still looks nice):


    I appreciate the help regaurdless.

    Oh and QD, I'm not offended at all, it's my fault for shooting through a cheap $70 lens(bought used of course)

    yeah, it probably still needed your treatment. I usually get scared I'll overdo it. Thanks, you're getting REPs for the helpful lesson regardless.
