Default Just pictures - no questions this time....

My way of saying thanks for all the help provided by the members on here - a few pictures from a Swedish summer evening.

Beautiful pictures and a great looking car. I wish my cars' paint was that good.

Great shots. You must be using decent glass on your camera.

And maybe some serious Photoshop skills??? (Understand that I mean that in a highly complimentary way!).

I would be most interested to see a "Making of" documentary describing how these images were produced. They are most definitely stunning, and are far superior to most anything we would find in a newsstand magazine!

Evening light, good use of depth of field, high quality glass that delivers excellent tonality and colour...and the one thing you can't buy...a good eye.

Wow, thanks all for your comments I am extremely flattered - have not seen them until now so please pardon my lack of response to your questions.

To answer some of them - the glass is the cheapest glass in my collection, however my favorite. The Canon fixed 50mm f1,8 (costs about USD 100). The pictures have undergone level adjustments in LightRoom, mostly some increasing of contrast and adjustment of saturation.

All your kind comments inspired me to go out yet again to shoot some more pictures, this time the car is on the "look good" rims (as opposed to the "go fast" in the previous session).

Hope you enjoy these as much. They are shot with a Canon 17-40L f/4 glass with pol. filter. Again adjusted in LightRoom.

You people look like you need to drive on the rumble strip a little more. Or did you have it painted fresh for the picture show?

Looks very nice. Love what you've done with it!

are those presets, or your own tweaking to taste? Looks great. Which Canon camera are you using?

edit: never mind. Exif shows a Canon 20D.
