The 355 is always a great sighting, though I really hate the orange indicators on the US-spec models. :bah:

Gallardo is great obviously, even if only one pic. :(

THe white-on-white 996 C4S looks cool IMO!

Very nice pics of the 355 - did you follow it? :P

The Flying Spur is horrid - and the chromes just make it worse :roll:

The 8 Series is such a rare car - its dated a lot, but it still looks special :good:
The Esprit is another of the rare coupes, but in comparison with the 8 series, the design has stood the test of time almost as long as the porker 911 - its a shame that they had to stop making them :(

The classic 911s are nice (i don't know the real designation - 964?), but a white 996 is a bit of a dodgy colour.

I like the way americans aren't afraid to customise their Mustangs - in the UK most people feel it's special enough because it's rare, but i love the Roush bodykits and driving lights etc... - that's what the Mustang means to me anywway :bah:

Nice update - there's plenty to see in your neck of the woods

Dingo-
yeah; i have two more shots of the Gallardo; but really; its similar style angles... (on somebody's private property... so i walked upto the fence) hopefully a future friend ;)
oh, and finally, a "real" c4 S :lol: ;)

the#1-
no, i didn't follow the 355; they were totally different owners, and cities. the one that was driving about is a friend of mine; and will do a in-depth shoot of his car; an all around great guy!

the 911... that one is a 930 turbo, and targa... i try to make it as easy as i can by naming the files what the car is... sometimes im wrong; or cant find enough info... but most of the time; the info is right there :wink:

I thought the two colours were different - bt a bit of processing in PS can change a corsa into a scuderia (or whatever rosso shades they are) :P

And i obviously don't look at file names :oops: Just ignore any other stupid questions from me :D

Oh yeah, "nthimage production" is on fire this week with this second update. :onfire:

Thanks a lot nthfinity for those CTS-V pix and the awesome Porsche 930 turbo picture. :good:

The Cuda has a really cool paint job IMO and you took a good pix of it. :D

Some really nice sightings, especially the f355, and the full white 996 C4S

Brillant :D you are posting many pics lately, and I really like it :D

Only one thing puzzles me: the BIG quality difference between panning shots and cars standing still. Standing cars' pics are nice, sharp, well contrasted and with no noise most of the time. Panning shots are almost always blurry, with way more noise and the general quality is so lower that I wondered sometime if it was another camera.
Not sure if it's up to the settings or the lense, but it's quite obvious IMO. I can see some of them are just taken with not enough light ence higher ISO which is always bad for panning shots as far as I saw (higher than 200 is too much already). Part of the problem is due to the focusing.. probably same problem I have from time to time: slow focusing in non-pro lenses, but IMO keeping ISO blocked to 200 or better 100 would already help a bit :)

always welcoming your crtiques :)

actually; I'm noticing the same thing except for a few instances...

the 355 corsa scuderia (i think) and the lotus Espirt shots i was playing with the color; and raw profiles to an effect i actually liked... it looks more like true film grain then digital... but that is largely because the photo was shot in raw; like all the pics i'm doing now.

it is a problem with staying out in town longer then the light is lasting; and 'fixing' the problems in PS... it is SOOOO much more workable in raw format i'm already noticing.

and of course; the low range lenses is killing me :( i need a big job to come through so i can get into the L lenses... after using these lenses nearly a year; im really fustrated by them; and soft edges and tones :(

when shooting moving objects; its a total crapshoot if the focus is as crisp as the still shots... but some work out.

anyway, the next update should be up sometime soon :)
