Garage reflection shots

I cleaned up the car this morning, and decided to play around with the camera to see what kind of reflections shots I could get in the garage. These were taken with a Canon Rebel XSi with kit lense. After the wash, I put on a layer of DWG and topped it off with OCW.











Same basic shot with different lighting effect.

Re: Garage reflection shots

It funny how much you can learn about someone through reflection shots:
for instance: you have a cat / take great car of your lawn / and stock pile paper towels!!!! : )

Thanks evenflow. It's just a cheap $30 Best Buy special. I need to step up and get a real tripod someday.
