If you want to improve your skill level, use some post-production tools to get the color right. Your car looks blue in these pics and I though it was until someone mentioned DGP and I looked at your sig.

Great pics, color/lighting is just off.

lol yeah, not too skilled with ps yet. i was playing with the contrast and brightness which i guessed caused a blueish outcome (and being color blind dont help either).
i see your from sf, im just down the block over at dc, pacifica area. if u wanna shoot let me know. wanted to practice a little bit more . it would be nice to meet someone in the forums.
