just a few minutes after i posted one picture thread, i looked out the window and saw a rather brilliant sunset. i hurriedly took my camera and drove to the beach (a mere 5 mins) and took these shots.

enjoy!













thanks again for looking!

 

Great Shots..the last one especcially

 

thanks bro. i really liked how that last one turned out as well

 

nice sunset pix

 

hahaha i can see that (avatar)

 

HEY i just realized you finally took off the front plate lol

damn those are looking really good

 

Damn man haha I wish I could do that(Get rid of the front license plate)

 

lol Ive never had the front plate since I got the car a year ago here's an older shot:



we gotta meet up sometime for a shoot. Im starting to have a much freer schedule

 

nice pic and nice car! love the sunset background

 

Wow that picture is sick..makes me feel like I'm there..

...I actually tried to reach in and see if it was real..

 

wth really? LOL For some reason I though you had your plates on earlier @___@ been too long now

Cool. During the weekdays I'm at LA, but on the weekends I'll be in La Habra, so whenever you have time I'm down for a shoot (with BJ of course) lol

 

Nice pics

 

that is hot. is the older shot photoshpped? not the best when it comes to cameras, so i might be wrong.

 

yes sir, the older shot I took of my car is photoshopped (non-HDR if I remember correctly, as someone else here asked if it was a while back).

here is a comparison shot:

AFTER:

 

thanks bro! here is also another "older" shot I did that will give you that surreal feeling:

BEFORE:



AFTER:

 

you are awesome at photoshopping. i liked how you got he sunset effect on the first pic, and in the second one, the TL looks so much meaner.

 

thanks bro!

i was tinkering around with one of the shots and tried to get more detail from the background through layering another composite, and also boosting up the car as well. making the car look like it was "put" in the existing picture

BEFORE:



AFTER:



let me know what you think

 

Sick both the original photos, and the modified, nice car!!

 

DAAAAMN....

ps. I know why I like the last pic up top.. CUZ IT LOOKS LIKE NBP MUHAHAHA

 

Wow...your camera's sick
Then the awesome shots..
and then your photoshopping skills on top of that! CRAZY haha

What do you change? The pics I post one here, I ussually just change the Contrast, Saturation a little, and unsharpen mask. But then again, I'm a nood at PS

 

wow, plz tell us your secret on PS'ing pics. =)

I'mma noob as well.. what camera u using?

 

it does doesnt it?

here is a shot I took where you cant tell if its NBP or WDP

 

thanks!

I work mainly on curves and check my histogram as I go along. Ive been doing this for quite some time and do photography as a side job/hobby (I also do weddings and portraits, on top of cars).

I used nothing more than my everyday camera on these shots, a Canon Digital Rebel XT. I sometimes use my Canon 30D, but thats mainly for people portraits. I do shoot in RAW on all my pictures, which helps keep as much data on the file as possible, giving more latitude to correct mistakes.

 

damm, those shots really came out good.

 

O wow.. I should be on my way then. haha.. I just bought a XTi w/ 18-55mm.. whenever I p/s, i sharpen the pic, bring out more contrast and brightness(if needed) and then hue//saturation.. Dunno how to work the curves =\ ... And i wish I knew what the diff between the L and L+RAW... I heard RAW is for pro's, which i am lightyears away from being one , lol.. but your P/S skill is amazing..

 

Do you have a hi-res version of this pic? This one is awesome and I'd love to use it as a desktop background.

 

yeah Ill resize one for 1280 resolution. Ill post the link here

 

I'm lovin' this. You could get paid to do this at a meet. I'd be willing, but driving from Toronto to California is just a tad too far.

 

I actually do get paid to do this from time to time, its a side job/hobby. but I do mostly weddings now, it pays better

if you are ever down here on vacation let me know. Ill be sure to accomodate you and give you a discount

 

Thanks. I meant Acurazine could pay you to be the official photographer for meets. that would be cool. I like photography as well, but don't really do it as much. the only photo gear I have is manufactured by Motorola.

 

Cool. Thanks!

 

I was going to comment how nasty that car looks in the last pic, and here was the reason!


NBP RULEZ FO-EVA!

 

hahaha
