I also was wondering if anyone has any tips on taking photos? What am I doing wrong? What should I be doing?
 
Car looks awesome. One thing that will instantly improve your photos...squat...don't take pictures standing up. Get to eye level with your subject. Play with different angles. Find an angle that captures the wetness, reflection, etc. of your work. Make sure the sun is behind you for best shots.



There is a picture taking post at the top of this forum by CarGuy. Very good reading.

I agree. Try laying on the ground and taking a 3/4 shot. Also, if you have a camera where you can adjust the arpature (sp?) settings, you can take pics where the car is in focus and the background is kind of blurry. You also might want to find a place with an unabstructed background (like a beach or field) to take your pictures at. Long exposure night shots are always nice too.
 
wow, that's really nice. good work!



also agree, read CarGuy's post on taking pictures. plus experiment with camera height and angles, closeness to the car, camera settings, etc etc. the nice thing with a digital camera (i assume you're using a digital) is that if the shot comes out ugly, you can always delete them.
 
Yeah they are. Normally you can get 21-22 mpg or more but lately ive been getting about 15 when I get to drive it. Dad doesn't like it that much, hey should of gone with the smaller engine then:D
