see what had happened was....

[VWGirl]

Some of your shots are okay... some look like you used a disposable camera that doesn't have a decent view finder... chopping off the edges of cars is like chopping off someones head or feet in a photo... there is a right way to do it and there is a wrong way to do it which leaves the photo being awkward. You have to decide what the focal point is. What are you trying to show off in your pic? What is the center of attention?

2nd pic where your car is set over to the left side and a tiny bit of the bumper is cut off= bad... you have a lot of empty space left over on the right side of your pic and leaves it awkward... had the car been placed on the right side and space left in front of the car it would be less awkward as it is leaving a place for the car to go (i don't know if any of this makes since, i was kinda born a photographer so i don't think about it i just do it)
3rd pic= decent job... I don't like the black car in the background, kind of clutters up the shot. I try to find clearer shots, but sometimes its not possible
4th pic is sorta getting there as far as the overall shot i guess... but the car is way up in the top left corer of the frame... you also have to watch out for things like signs in the background that give your car a hat... looks weird
The pics where both bumpers are cut off= very bad framing...

I'm not gonna go through all of the pics... i think you may get some of the idea?

why does your driver door always show up a different color?

good critique. bottom line: composition needs work.

If you're talking about the teal hatch, its because it is a different color. He did a power window conversion and they came off another civic but its a tad lighter.

it's just easier that way lol. it's hard as ballz to get all the power shit inside a door between the framing.

WTF are you talking about? my comment about how some of the shots look like you took the pics from a disposable camera with a bad viewfinder?

fact: view finders on disposable cameras are far inferior to that of an SLR... that was my point... it's all about your focal point... some of yours are just slightly off... which may very well be because you hadn't taken the suggestions that you now have in to consideration before... they have nothing to do with your camera... unless in fact you do have a bad viewfinder, but I am guessing that is not the case. The actual imagery itself is fine, it's not distorted or out of focus or pixelated or whatever... i have no problem with your camera... I just think you need some help with your technique... It's mostly about the shot anyways... not the cam... I don't even have a good cam

You don't have ANYTHING to apologize to that girl. She's no one on here that you need to justify yourself to at all. Later, QD.

:EDIT:

make sure you quote the right folks, captain.

[VWGirl]

nah i was talking about the composition of the pictures. ie: the way your eyes look at the picture or how the picture is laid out.

I think he meant to re: my comment about the doors being a diff color ;-)
