Unofficial 3G TL Photo Competition

No, this isn't only for modded TLs. All TLs are welcome, provided they're a 3G. This is your chance to let your photography skills shine, so submit your best camera work, featuring the TL as its subject. Multiple entries are allowed (no, not that kind of "multiple entry", get your minds out of the gutter).

What's the prize you say? Well, bragging rights for one, barring anything Acurazine might be willing to do in the way of added incentive.

Remember to include some details about the photos you submit, including:

Camera:
Lens (if applicable):
Date and Time:
Other info:

For those who are not sure how to post pictures, please check out this (https://acurazine.com/forums/showthread.php?t=90613) thread.

More details on judging later.

Enjoy!

Parked behind a SAM's (Wal-Mart) store.



To my daughters' Soccer practice.



My Daughter throwing a fit after she just woke up.



Youngest daughter as the copilot.



Just arrived into its new home.

Meaning no disrespect to your lovely wife and daughters, but this is my favourite of the bunch. The way the sun's hitting the fender and the door really brings out the pearl effect in the paint. And the shadows really help to accent the car's form. Cool.

Its my favorite too and its no disrespect. My wheels should finally be in a couple of weeks and I will retake that photo at the same time and location.

CCC, those are some beautiful pics! I love the background idea! You have us all beat.

Some very nice work there, folks.

In fact, some of these photos would make really nice wallpapers for computer screens. I hope everybody's got high-res copies of them in case other members might be so inclined as to ask for them.

Come to think of it, that last one's a very nice angle. If only the background weren't as cluttered.

Yeah, sorry about that, I don't have much time to wash her as often as I'd like to, plus the weather over here seems to fluctuate a lot. As for the background, yeah, I work right around our airport, so everything around there is cluttered w/ warehouses, cars, and shitty weather

some how this appears to have turned into a just post photos of your car thread than people to went out of there way to do like a photoshoot of your car. I mean I dont expect everyone to go to the elaborate measures I did for the pictures. But go to like a parking garage or a nice park or a lot by a river or lake or something. You can also go to like run down wearhouses for backgrounds. I mean I understand some people may like to take pictures of there car in front of there house but its not really original. For a photo contest you need to do something kinda original. Take pictures that make the car stand out from the background. The pictures in the neighbor hood have many cars in the background which draw the attention away from the subject of the photo.
