√ IA car photography enthusiasts come inside.

[Mr. Clean]

Now please don't get me wrong. There are beginning photographers, and there are people that should be burnt when a camera touches their fingers. Due to the fact that IA has been inundated with horrible CAR PICS threads, I feel the need to be reminded that IA still has what it takes to get me through the cold nights. The digital camera age seems to have given everyone and their mother the idea that anyone can be a photographer. We all know that this is a gross over-estimation, and it will eventually lead to the downfall of the internet as we know it. So all you mofos that take respectable pictures, please take the time to post up a couple of your all time favorite pictures. This is really a moral thread. Please participate... you know who you are.

Couple of my fave older shots...

Let's make this happen. I need to be un-depressed.

ill admit that was not the best out of all the ones i have taken, but i still like it.

[Homer Simpson]

Not my favorites, but my most recent. Been ages since I've taken pictures. I know I am not on ya'lls level

Please let me know what I need to work on! I was just messing with different editing with these three pics. I want to invest in some strobes and such but no money

man, nobodys hating on your photography... most of the time i (maybe others) get the feeling you just post pictures of your car just because its yours. nobody wants to see that fake type r lookin ass teg on offroad suspension we understand its your car / pride and joy, but honestly... refer to my other post.

[Mantooth]

Dwisforme05,

If I EVER am able to keep my car out of the shop and get my wheels on, we need to hook up for a photoshoot. I'm loving your work.

[blacknightteg]

i see nothing wrong with car whoring. and besides, all the pics are gunna end up being the same after a while.

Although you take decent pics, Mr. Clean. They are not amazing. There are plenty of people on this site that take good pics. I understand where your coming from when people post crappy pics, I don't understand why you sit back and judge them. Anyways +reps for having a really good looking Del Sol.

it's not about that. i, by no means, think my shit doesn't stink. but being realistic, one can obviously see that there has been a major decrease in the amt of quality threads being posted recently. i get down on my pictures constantly, and then i come to IA or H-T to try and find some inspiration. but the problem is that lately, there is really no inspiration. this is not a thread to try and convince people that i'm awesome. it's just to get the people who actually try and improve on their work to post up. i thank you for going about that comment tactfully though lol. you certainly could have said you suck, i'm out. point taken. i secretly just wanted changaroo to post a thread of awesome pics to make me feel better, but he's too modest and wouldn't do it. so i had to do it my damn self.

and as far as my criticism, at the risk of sounding even more like a douchebag... i know a good picture when i see it. while i can't usually take those stunning shots, i do know my way around a camera and it's elements. it's just in my nature to critique because i genuinely LOVE it when people do the same to my work. i want to know what people like and dislike, and i kind of just assume people want the truth. if a picture is simply ridiculous then i don't care about being coy, but if i can tell that the photog will actually take the criticism and put it to use, i will give them an honest critique. anyone on here who knows me personally knows how i am. i respect and encourage those who deserve it.

thread is rollin. keep em coming.

Good Job with that response. I see where your coming from. As I was trying to say, you take great photos. I just have not seen that million dollar shot yet. I will admit I am a fan of your work though.

lol. i'm feeling spry this evening. and thank you for the compliment amongst all this.

[Kirtsky]

trying a couple more here. Again, I have never been into editing too much. Heck, I just bought my first DSLR this past March. I need to get out my old SLR 35mm and have some fun with them. I have a Yashica that is older than me (36) that takes some interesting photos.

I like the discussion that has developed in this thread though.

[Papa_Smurf]

^ oh WOW, thats a really nice white hatch there, Brad.

uprewt > *

i still <3 you justin

















I'm sure he'll post more of his other masturpeeses

[Kirtsky]

I'll throw my hat in. I'm not much for editing and effects though. I also tend to liek shots in motion, rather than posed.

















Someday, I'll get around to editing, but for now, I'm happy with what come out.

[G.C]

man i want someone to take pics of my car.....

[JITB]

I look at pictures hourly, daily, and all day....and it has always been pictures that just show a good scene, that do it.. post processing has its place, but a good shot is a good shot before and after..


When you take a picture of a car we want to see the car..not what tricks you can do with the camera. Coordinate colors, a good background, action

You know it!

[bigs]

My favorites.

[changaroo]

werd. kamikaze prolly one of the most underrated photogs out there.

people on IA only know "big" names because they post their shit up every day. of course they get recognized when people continuously see their threads. its called repetition... repetition of shit lol.

dont take me the wrong way, every photog has to start somewhere, but pretending to be something youre not... you aint tricking nobody but yourself dont fake teh funk.

juss sayin. dont market yourself as volks / works, when in reality youre uggen ROTAS SON.

[Kamikaze]

werd. kamikaze prolly one of the most underrated photogs out there.

shut your whore mouth. that interior pic is win. i need strobes so bad. it's really the only way i can continue in the automotive photography world. i'm really getting frustrated with my natural light work.
