Hey I'm sorry it doesn't have girls or Triumphs but I figured I would share.






17-40L?No HDR was used just me and my camera a quality L glass lens and some software...
Mind if I make a few suggestions?
1: Powerline going across, needs to be cloned out. Clone out the telephone pole in the back and the bit of parking line on the lower right as well.
2: Weird crop for me, watch your reflections. Can see the building and cars in the paint.
3: Same as 2, Get down even with the axle of the wheel and shoot straight
4: Too centered, same as #1, plus there's a piece of a car
5: Weird crop, i'd like to see the whole engine, watch your reflections. I can see you.
6: Same as the others that look like it.
I like the angle of 1, 4, and 6, but they are all the same. Got any others from a different perspective? Personally, I like to use a much longer lens. Somewhere 80mm+ on a crop body. Gives it a nice effect.
Here's a few examples that I took to show what I mean:
EDIT: Tried to just get links so I wouldn't put pictures in here. Wouldn't work

EXIF Data should be intact on all of those. On the first mazda shot, I used a 40 year old manual focus lens. 135mm f/2.5 at roughly f/5.6. The Camaro shots were around 200mm I think, and the last mazda was at 30mm. Notice how clean the reflections are? I need to re-edit the camaro shots, especially the flash ones to clean up the reflections. I like the close up wide angle shots myself, but it's nice to get some variety.
Don't think that I don't like these photos. Just trying to give you a critique. I like the ones with the skies in the background, but they could be touched up a bit to make them better.
Hmm I wonder whose that is... :coolgleamA:Got a 4th triumph I'm shooting sometime in the next few weeks too.
Haha I was waiting for that commentYou cut part of the bike off in 1 and 2 haha. http://photography-on-the.net/forum/showthread.php?t=672913
Hokie, I found your pics far cleaner and proffessional, but quite boring, too :coolgleamA: (and not as beautiful, but it's probably in great part due to the fact I love sunsets/rises).
You are welcome to shoot my bike for some practice...I do need to start doing more shoots.
Want to bring one down to San Diego? I'll be moving there temporarily next Saturday. I'm shooting tesposito's bike sometime shortly.You are welcome to shoot my bike for some practice...
And hot girls that would want to model with a bike or a car are a dime a dozen here at the beach. I already have a couple in mind. We should chat... :coolgleamA:
I like this picture a lot and don't really know why. I'm not even a fan of that wheel color. I guess that means you did a good job!
