Default BMW E60 M5 Photoshoot

Part 2 of the photoshoots at this owners place, this time a lovely black E60 M5. Again I suffered from a pretty poor location but hope you still enjoy them.

This is the 5th (the 1st at the time) E60 M5 I've been in, so not much more to say on it really.

All 22 high-res pics can be viewed on my website :arrow: www.ozcarsightings.com

Very nice shots Dingo!

What lense did you use the 18-55 one or 18-70?

I only have the 18-55mm out of those two, which I used for most of these shots.....some were taken with the 70-300 IS but obviously not much room to get far enough away for all shots.

21" actually, but yes I definately agree....makes SUCH a difference.

The light is perfect! Did you alter them on your pc or left them as they were, because they really are stunning. I can't seem to be able to get that effect with my Nikon D50, I wonder if its me or if its the light in Holland?

I always edit my photos in Photoshop, but nothing too extreme.....just a bit of playing around with the contrast, colour, levels etc.

Check TT's tutorial on photo editing, similar to what I do.

Actually I almost agree with dani; I dont know why but the M5 looks a bit subtle (alongside the rest of the new 5 series) as the current A6 as well, (actually IMO the merc E class is the only car which looks beautiful in present)

On the other hand, if we talk about the driving pleasure, my opinion changes drastically since the car is perfect except in one very tiny thing; I prefer the AMG supercharged engine due to it torque; naturally I dont mind at all driving it or owning it

Indeed, a must have!! I'm thinking of getting a second one rather than swapping this one between lenses all the time.
