Got a few more but that's most of it for the moment,
i'm on the hunt for new cars.

Don't suppose any of you have 08 MB's in Australia?

my girlfriends brother is a military photographer, you have the same gift he does, you can see something in a scene us mere mortals cant, and then take a damn good picture of it, your shots of the 202 are fantastic, I assume that most brits will find them good too as you have a different backdrop to our normal car shots,

keep up the good work - you have a gift!!

Hi W210,

very much appreciated.
much respect to you GF's Brother too

As you did ask, the horizon should never be crooked. Excellent shots, in particular the studio stuff is top class.

As someone who has commissioned photos for OEM auto manufacturer websites in the past - so please take as constructive criticism....

Technically they look very proficient, especially the studio shots. However, there are loads of commercial snappers who take shots like this all day, every day. What I'm trying to say is that nothing jumped out at me, which is what a pro needs in the portfolio. However, 99 times out of 100 your shots will be exactly the type of thing that clients need - but to get the work you need to get a bit more "pop" across.

Early days I know - hope it all goes well for you

Yup agree nice shots better than i can do.

 

[Defiant]

I miss the seventies, when the regulations required all automotive photography include a model.
Otherwise, yeah, those are cars.


sniffle.

 

[The G.F.P]

quiet moody pics that work well with dark cars

very good
