    Default NOT A PHOTOSHOOT OF AN APEX SILVER EVOLUTION VIII

    Went to shoot my buddys evo today, i was pretty happy with the outcome.

    the car is just a bolt-on stock turbo car with nice brakes, coilovers and BBS MR wheels.

    enjoy....

    your angles are improving. however your lighting needs work and your editing is bland.

    my angles and composition has always been my strong point. lighting is getting better but still needs work, ill keep playing with it and ill get it!

    #4 has about 2 hours of post process in it. more blur was added, windows were darkened, wheels were brightened, brought the red out in the calipers more, tree was heavily modified, power pole and power lines were taken out and the sky was dropped in.

    i dont like HDR or the "HDR look" so my shots will always be bland

    I always thought your angles weren't that good honestly. In these pictures you did a decent job. I'm not talking about the "HDR" look. Just the editing overall is bland. Also i could tell the last one was edited at first glance. Everything's very blurry that was edited and the sky is the wrong size, not to mention heavily pixelated/rasterized. The tree looks like god himself chizled it to perfection and there are no real natural lines on it. As far as the whole package goes, this is your only good shot:

    you need to go back and look cause i dont mean to be cocky but my composition is always on point. the sky is the right size. the original shot of the sky was 2200pixles wide and i resized the shot to 2200 pixels wide before dropping it in. god did edit that tree cause i blended the sky in then dropped the original outline of the tree back on the top.

    thats the WORST shot, look how blown out the bottom part of the front fender is, its freaking white its so blown LOL

    Your first photo is extremely blown out. The editing on the last photo is atrocious. It's horribly pixelated, and you can clearly tell what was edited. Again, the sky is the wrong size. I pointed out the picture that had the best editing/angle/lighting. I didn't say it was greatest picture ever. I realize parts of it have blown out color, but it is your best shot in the series.

    I ruv you (+reps). A "professional" on here posted an incredibly processed picture he took and someone goes "oh man, you always take the best pictures!". I wanted to say no where in the world looks like this mans pictures, he is tampering with them. It has nothing to do with his skills as a photographer.

    Sure I have photoshop but this is about the limit of how my photos are adjusted.

    Editing is huge in photography. Proper editing is second in importance to the lighting. However, if you're a master at lighting, you won't need to edit much. Shots taken outside where you cannot control the lighting without a ton of equipment, editing is key in making or breaking your shot.

    Hold up, I'll try to find the photo I was talking about. I agree with what you're saying, but shouldn't editing enhance or slightly correct a good photo, not MAKE a good photo?

    I think most of it was constructive, but I agree. Chad seems to have pretty thick skin.

    P.S. Chad want to use that rig and shoot my car?

    its semi-constuctive but its a personal thing since his gay lover talked shit about my loved ones and i told him id smash his face into the ground william comes into every thread i make runs off at the keyboard.

    i do have very thick skin but it is getting old, im on the verge of leaving IA and taking the company i work for with me, i feel like me as a sponsor isnt being treated very nice
