BioHazards photography!

BioHazard7911 · September 23, 2013

Hey all I've been practicing photography lately and this is the first time I've done this with a car (I've been doing more shots around my backyard and street and my dog :P), and I had limited space and not alot of sun (some are dark because of the shade and some focus angles are possibly wrong but I was just trying some different things. More photosets will be uploaded but at the moment all there is, is the '93 MX-5 :) Any constructive input would be very helpful! Cheers :)

Here's a little preview at a small image size so everyone can load this thread properly, original size is 3008x2000 :P

What are your plans with photographing? I'm no pro, really, have had my 650D since Christmas so I'm still learning. However, I suggest you reading some books and texts about photographing as you can find some helpful info & tips.

IMHO, if you take good photos there's no need to (over)photoshop them. And quality > quantity.

I'm a photo noob but my feedback for that shot would be to include more of the car and to get the camera a bit lower, pointing upwards. Also read up on the 'rule of 3s' or the 3x3 grid.

Hey there! For me the photos look pretty well also, I'm no pro/photographer neither. But for example, for me, in this photo the rear end shouldnt've been cuted (at least there's a wall or something).

Regards!

If I had a job in car photography or photography altogether I'd be very happy indeed. I'm going to keep practicing and see about getting into some courses for it. :)

Thanks for the tips bro.

Cheers dude, and yeah I'm really disappointed about the rear end cut-off, if I was allowed more space at the time that wouldn't have been an issue but, next time I guess. :)

New pics are up, better than last time I reckon but I still wasn't able to take it anywhere :( I will be soon though!

Bump.

I woke up one morning at 6am to catch a sunrise, used Koko as my model once again, and I did my very first "old" photo edit with the red MX-5 and white MX-5..

Please let me know if they're any good guys!! It'd be appreciated :)

Bump! I've taken some time off here and another forum to sort stuff out, so I'm here with new content :) an MX-5 Club Run is coming up soon too and I'll definitely be there and it'll be during the late afternoon all the way through the night so I need some tips on what camera settings I should put my camera on.
