Some of my photography. 56k beware!

Who uses 56K anymore anyway?!?!

Shot with a Nikon D80, 18-135mm lens. Not too much post work in Photoshop. Hope you like!

 

I likey this one
One of my favourite cars. Ever!

 

Yeah it was a fun car to shoot...any beat after we raced

 

Nice pics!

 

Great shots!

 

Really digging those wheels on the pewter grey mustang! Nice pics!!

 

Thank you

 

very nice shots man. I'm into photography as well. Were any of these Post Processed or slight HDR?

What camera and lens were you using? I got a Nikon D60 here only the kit lens for now though

 

looks great!

 

ya nice shots the skyline is my fav. too you don't see to many in the usa.

 

Awesome photies dude :thumb:

 

hehe sorry i didn't read and realize you are as well using a Nikon camera but a D80. Was looking at the page on my phone earlier and must have missed that.

I see you bumped the ISO up in a couple pics but man they turned out rather crisp Wouldn't mind seeing if you had any advice as far as taking shots like that.

 

Great shots! I'm still learning the ropes with photography in general. There are no classes for me to take around here, so it's all internet info for me. I'm getting the hang of it though.

 

Care to share how you did the Photoshop in the first one?

 

photography is great . . . . for the most most part once you have a camera taking pictures is free so it's a great hobby.

I'm guessing that a lot of the work was done by altering the curves setting on photoshop. I could be wrong but that is one way to start defining things like the dark areas, mid tones and highlights.

 

Wow, nice work !

That moody sky in your first pic reminds me somewhat of the photographic style of Tim Wallace (Ambient Life)

So, you are in very good company! :thumb:

 

just looked at the Tim Wallace site and he looks like he does some HDR photo's. You can get moody sky's that way as well.

 

Nice pics!!

 

Hey guys, thanks for all the comments.

In terms of the post work, I mostly hit up curves/levels, mess with saturation. I also use the Dodge & Burn tools a lot. That plus my other techniques is how I get this effect.

The first shot was actually lightly tone mapped with an HDRI program.

 

Nice shots.

Any tips on photographing cars?

I think the thing I have the most problems with is capturing swirls.
