    Night/Raining Shots (56k no)

    So i thought tonight would be cool for pictures, because it was raining and dark. So I let my friend take some shots of my car, and overall they came out very well. I have not washed the car for about 2 weeks, but I kinda like that for once. Either way lemme know what you think.

    Full Res/Rest of the shots are available here

    Looks great.

    The headlight wipers compliment the kopis and give it the "old school" look.

      Looks awesome James! That bridge and its lighting make an amazing backdrop.

      You should go back and snap a couple more pics. I looked through the pics you didn't post, too bad some of those blurry ones didn't come out good, I really like the one where the headlights are on the front of your car with the bridge in the background.

      BUT, why do your headlights look blueish.....?

          Yeah I do wanna get back out there, with a tripod and get some more shots, I love that backdrop, few other spots in town I wanna try as well =)


          headlights are blueish because the driving light bulbs are blue ricer bulbs, I picked them so that they match my PIAA 55W H1 bulbs when I am driving

              yeah the blurry shots are my fault, I was too worried about overexposing I forgot to check to see if manual or auto was on and I let them come out like complete garbage. I would really like to go back and reshoot this. Thus is the life of a photo-student with no clue as to what the hell he's doing. :P

                    The regular bulbs have that yellow tint, which look WAYYY off compared to my PIAA's

                    they don't look blue in person, they look white.

                    Trust me, it matches the PIAA's, only intent =)

                        Never been a big fan of car photography taken at a ground level, like all those shots.

                        Car looks great though Jimmy.

                              that's pretty much your only option if you don't have a tripod..
