Morgan, Nice dramatic shot! Can't beat the silver vehicles for lighting, so malleable. Jim

Hi Jim,

Totally agree with you when it comes to shooting silver cars. I keep telling my clients to supply the car in silver as the results are so much better and the retouchers can then change the car to any colour the client wants.

The attached Subaru car was actually silver.

Cheers

Simon

Exactly Simon, I've had them go blue, red, etc, as you said, whatever color the client wants. Jim

Here is one of the images from the very last session in the studio where I started doing studio photography, the used-to be livingroom.
D800e + Nikon 60mm G f/2.8

Thanks! Silver is my favorite color

Red can be fun too

Morgan, these are nice images. I am curious, what lens was used in the last shot, I sense that 3D mystery look here.

Thanks Michael! I used a Nikon 50 1.4 on a D800e for the shot. A lot of the look is in that I composited the lighting (on the studio shot too)

Love your shot above as well. Showed it to my pregnant wife, may have inspired her to pose for some nude shots

I love my WRX. But this is the nicest-looking one I've seen from them so far, and a top-flight image. These cars are tremendous fun to drive, have great collision safety, and run forever.

Hi Keith,

Yes it is a awesome looking car and the interior is out of this world.

Here is what I call my base shot before I start to fine tune the car with diffrent lighting images.

Cheers

Simon

I hate it when you guys get such great results and are not using $50,000 of MFD camera equipment. Gives me nothing to blame and no excuses lol

(Did you mean me?)

I like your slate-colored version...I'd love to have one in that color.

PS - Did you really shoot that at 2am?

HarperPhotos · « **Reply #1613 on:** January 21, 2015, 11:11:11 pm »

Hello,

Looks like I didn’t set the correct time on the camera as is certainly wasn’t shot at 2am.

Cheers

Lovely atmosphere Simon.

I've driven in a number of the OZ 20's Bentleys - fantastic cars. Love a crash gearbox.
Willing to bet my old man knows this car, he seems to know all the antipodean 1920's touring cars that are similiar to his.
