2006 MIAS-UPDATE-Schwalbe and Hamlet Pics!

[Carrera_GTcrazy]

I went to the Autoshow Monday January 23rd. We had a little JW Meet :D I meet up with Schwalbe and Hamlet! Both cool guys! Had a great time chatting with them :) We were at the show for around 7 hours :lol: Alot of my pictures turned out blurry due to the fact of me not useing a Tripod, so i plan on going again on Sunday with a tripod and a polerizer. Here are pictures from MOnday, and Stay tuned for an update on monday or tuesday with better pictures :D Here is a link to my whole gallery:

nice pics
if i'm not wrong thats the same 997 with gt3 aero kit we had here in mexico... the slr with everything open looks nice

[nthfinity]

the tripod ought to help out on the indoors shots... but the polarizer wont... there are other filters may have some nice effects... but thats my recomendation. ;)

the 997 c2 with the aero kit looks great; and the FGT is missing a "6" :lol: golf colors would be soooo worth it IMO :-D

i keep hearing schwalbe is a quality guy :)

[Speedracer38]

Stephan I think your pictures came out awesome!! Your already doing a great job with your new camera :) I'm glad you chose that over the D50. I really hope you can make it down to NYIAS :wink: :lol: :lol:

[Schwalbe]

I'm happy to see Stephan that you have now open an official topic about the 2006 Montreal International Autoshow. I will put my pix here and hamlet will do also the same to merge our pictures into only one topic. That will be cool to see our various photography angles for the same cars. :D

I know that I don't have your Top Gun camera or a tripod like hamlet, but some of my pix are really good too. About your camera, damn your Canon EOS 350D sounds so good when you took shots, just with the sounds we knew that you took perfect pictures ! http://www.cirena.com/rs6/smilies/hihi.gif

This kind of mini JW meeting was a cool day. It was so interesting to discuss and comment many cars we saw, in more to having an European point of view on american cars from hamlet. Even if this meeting lasted 7 hours it seemed to me very short. :wink:

Cheers !

EDIT (30/01/2006)


This year, the Audi stand was disappointing, because all the stars (RS4,S8,S6) were at the NAIAS, but fortunately the Porsche stand was hot. :good:

Enjoy my pix ! http://www.audipassion.com/services/forums/style_emoticons/default/biggthumpup.gif

Thanks Stephan for the pics, they look already very nice!

I like the white Flying Spur :D
the Ford GT is way better presented than in Geneva last year :roll:
the name tags (i.e. CGT) are disturbing, mybe you take them away for your next shooting :lol:
The Gallardo pic is awesome, the red Murci quite rare

[TT]

Thanks already for these pictures and if I might suggestion you something: do not bother with the polarizer.. from personal experience I can tell you it's just a PITA at car shows.. too many light sources, too many different angles.. outside it is ok to remove sky's reflection on windscreen, bonnet and so on, but inside it will just kill two or three spotlights to increase the effect of all the others :D

[vakpemil]

Really nice pics for you new camera. The Ford GT is just awesome :shock: and the rest is also very nice! An white M5 is not regular in The Netherlands!

[dutchmasterflex]

ahh.. i love all these annual auto shows..

those pics look great... the quality is amazing, i dont think i can wait much longer until i get a 350D for myself

[Carrera_GTcrazy]

Thanks for all the nice comments guys! I went to the show today instead of sunday, without my tripod :( around 20 pictures have been added to the gallery. Enjoy. Nothing special.

[Schwalbe]

Thanks Stephan for your new pictures addition, the quality of your pictures are always amazing despite the fact the lightings at Montreal Car show is really not in our advantage. :wink:

Cheers !

[Carrera_GTcrazy]

Thanks Schwalbe! Where is Hamlet? Is he still in Montreal?

[Schwalbe]

Thanks Schwalbe! Where is Hamlet? Is he still in Montreal?

He flew from Montreal to Paris in wednesday evening and he will return to Zurich for the weekend. He will post his pictures in this topic at the beginning of next week.

Cheers !

[taygunho]

thanks for pics . Ford GT ,Aston Martin DB9 and f430 looks awesome.

[Schwalbe]

You can see my pictures a couple of post before. :wink:

[a007apl]

tkx for Lambos pix :P

[hamlet]

Hi guys,

I am now back at home and will process my pics soon. Unfortunately, due to the light, most of them also turned to be blurry :cry: but I think I have a few good ones!

This trip to Quebec was really cool and I really appreciated to meet "local" JW members. :P I hope that the next time you guys come into Europe you will make a stop in Switzerland... But I definitely need to go back in Quebec in Summer to see how it looks like without snow and with leafes on the trees...

I must also say that I had some unforgettable moments like "ice-driving" in Montreal thanks to Schwalbe! This city is definitely a cool place and I will try to post also a few pics of it.

Next post with pics... :wink:

[Pehtren]

thanks for the pics..

And looking forward to see yours pics hamlet :D

[hamlet]

Here they are! But sorry, I just put the best ones. A lot are unfortunately blurry...at least good excuse to come back next year :wink:

@hamlet: That's cool you posted your pictures on the forums, they are splendid ! :D

I remember how it was difficult to obtain this picture with all these people who passed in front. :wink:

http://img218.exs.cx/img218/1536/montreal061171se.th.jpg


@Carrera_GTcrazy: Thanks buddy for your new great pictures ! The car show seems uncrowded and favourable to take beautiful photography. :D

[hamlet]

but for such open show, remember the trick is to go and make the picture at the very end when they close. Then, everybody is living and you've got empty stands :wink:

[Pehtren]

thanks for the tip, will sure to try it :wink: :D

And very very nice pics, the one with the SLR (batmobil) is great :P

thanks

[stmoritzer]

finally had the time to browse the pics; hamlet told me you had a great day together :wink:

yes, a tripod is a must inside a hall

saved some nice pictures, CGT, FordGT and the Lambos are my fav., the red Murci is rare and somehow a strange color to this car IMO


Thanks guys for the pics !
