Very nice product shots, to me 4 & 6 are the weakest but the rest are great. The first two are great and I think the vignetting works really well.

I'm not too keen on the agles all that much but I think they do work. Same as xolotl 4 & 6 are weakest and I think 2 is over contrasted and the vignetting diffenately works.

P.S Cool car

Absolutely fantastic, any chance of sharing what you did etc? I.e. Photoshop and the like.

2-3-5 are very impressive. You should be very proud.

apart from some added vignetting and some slight soft focus applied these look pretty much outta the camera based to me used with a polariser ?

Great images mate. Can you spare a minute and explain how you did it?

They're just a touch too contrasty. You're loosing the detail in the shadows so the car has no tyres Also the problem with the lomo effect action is that its too uniform. The fake vingetting it produces is too symetrical. That side, the composition is good. If you could turn things down just a smidege to balance out the effect and the shadows I think you could be onto a winner.

That's what I had in mind to say in my post, was a tad bit lazy in delivering the post properly though.

Fantastic shots. Out of these, 3 & 4 are my favourites

 

[DizMatt]

shiny

nice motor too
1 and 2 certainly work for me
1 looks clearer and more natural and 2 looks pretty dynamic

Does nothing impress you

Some of my shots today were quite nice I think you do reach a point where you see the problems with a photo quicker than the good things. I think I've trained myself to see those things so I can fix my own photos quicker. Sorry if I come off as sounding harsh

Agreed 100%.

nah you didnt. You just seemed like a good person to pick on

I must admit I have come to reliease that I do myself blow out important details unintentionally. but im too keen on on the contrast slider! or shooting into the path of the mighty sun!

 

[MrFunex]

how on earth does he keep his car so clean??

 

[Johnny|lucidcomposure]

I think it was prob washed before the shoot. Or Photoshop Clone/Heal too

 

[Sparky007b]

Loverly.

As Im on my second S3, i would say that

 

[rG-tom]

the best way of increasing contrast whilst keeping detail is to bring back the shadows first and THEN increase it
