Good job Mike!

My favorite would normally be one of the DTR pics, but I really like the tight shot on the Black (Drewstang's, I assume) in the second picture.

They do look a little soft on my monitor. I think a little sharpening would really make these look even better. It could just be that I haven't had enough coffee yet too. :)

Anyhow, thanks for sharing. They are some nice clean shots of a couple good looking vehicles.

Thanks for the kind words John!

I used a tripod shooting 100 iso at both 30 and 60/sec. with a 50MM and 55-200MM lens.

Slow lenses - 3.5 and 4.5/5.6

The only thing I did in PhotoShop was size them down and add a frame.

Practice, practice...

;)

Mike.Mike, I played around with a couple of them, did some minor adjustments and sharpening, and they looked very nice on my monitor. I was just working with your low res files, so I can only imagine what you could do with the full blown images. It really shouldn't take much to make those pics "pop".

Like I said, they are all very nice, clean pics, but I have found that most all of my shots need a little bit of post processing to really finish them off.

I think you have a couple potential wall hangers there.

Mabey ill invest in some high quality duracell batteries that may help some :D

Mabey ill invest in some high quality duracell batteries that may help some :DI'm sure that must be the problem, because you have the best color available in the Marauder lineup. ;)

There remain some of us that may take exception to the above statement....:D

There remain some of us that may take exception to the above statement....:DI know, and I feel bad for every one of you.:banana:

Actually, I kind of expected that to stir some of you guys up. It's all in good fun though. I don't dislike any of the colors except for the occasional disgusting lime green Marauder.

Great pics. Looks like an Axixtech Stealth Visor on the black one yes?

Nice pics. I love the no front plate look. Really wish we didn't have to have one here in NY.

[justbob]

May i just say, SHINY! Nice pics, and good choice in cars!

Hmmmm, I don't think it looks like it did on my monitor before sending it through Photobucket. Oh well. :(
