Pictures don't do it justice! There may be some squirrel guts on there somewhere as well.

Another day at Thill and you'll be able to use that front bumper as a Rorschach test.

Yep Mooty's kids love washing his cars so much they will skip college and get jobs at carwash. He can use tuition money to buy more cars!

I have dived into the world of photography and learning as much as I can via youtube tutorials on Lightroom and Photoshop. I don't yet have a trained eye for car photography and did a quick shoot near my house... I made a mistake in shooting within the shadows but here are a few shots i played around with in post processing... I know we have photographers here... Any tips on how I can extract the most potential out of my pictures?

18 way sofas It went great with OEM Dunlops at 35-36 hot, Tarrett tie rods/monoballs/bushings, middle sway bar settings, standard aero. The car is bulletproof- never worry about temps, oil, brakes

Beautiful car!

Not claiming to be an expert, but my .02c: Looks like you shot this around the middle of the day? Harsh light and hard shadows mean you have to pull highlights and shadow detail in PP which ends up giving the sky/trees a somewhat unnatural look. Keep in mind, this is nit-picky stuff.

Thanks!

Im just getting into photography and am still doing quite a bit of learning. I appreciate the constructive criticism. I made a mistake shooting this at Noon and within the shadows but im getting better.

I have not spent much time PPing images of cars but a lot of the guys who are into that say to use negative clarity and watch the sharpening in Lightroom.
