NZ Benz Expert Date registered: Apr 2006 Location: New Zealand Vehicle(s): 1993 300SEL/S320 Posts: 2555 | Re: My new 'Black' AMG Monoblocks Photoman - 6/4/2007 5:53 AM NZ Benz - 6/4/2007 11:52 PM Photoman - 6/4/2007 5:47 AM take a look at the shadow from the sun and you'll start to get an idea of how I do it... Reflectors? I'm stumped. I've never tried car photography it looks hard with the way the shadows fall on the bodywork of the car. he he he - I'll keep you guessing. You'll have to bring your beast up for a shoot and find out first hand When are you planning a meet? I'm tied to Dunedin for exams till the 22nd then I'm off home for 3 weeks up north. | ||

The paint on that car I shot today had stone chips as well Yea that is one thing I have noticed particularly with silver is that the paint colour covers up quite well from about 10 feet. Heres a couple of pics that I took at different times, one in Auckland another in Christchurch. I did alot of B&W street photography between 2003-5.

Today was a glimmer of unfrozen sanity 'midst the season of cold shitty stuff weather. Time we started a new thread though - lets see who's watching... I have a major gripe with my car being from Singapore and not having heated seats, the leather is like sitting on a cold stone when I get into it, it's snowing here now too. You know what I find interesting? It gets down to about -5, -6 here at night sometimes yet my washeer fluid does not freeze. | ||
