Austin what do you use for post processing? Could you pm me one of the shots pre editing? These are all natural lighting right? I really like these, good job dude.

It's a little secret. I'll PM you some non-processed ones tomorrow. All natural lighting.

For whatever my opinions worth I seriously think the valence grill should be painted black...

Holy crap attaching images ruins the quality, makes my photos look like ass.

gets alot more attention that i desire on a daily basis.

Just imagine if your car was red...Then you'd be where I am.

I like your car. Is it your daily?

I love this car, and I love these pictures. Valence looks great too, I don't see what your talkin about with the bad fitment.

Don't want to be an A-hole, but I've kept looking at this beautiful car and didn't think there was anything with it, until I saw that valance real close.

It looks like the front bumper and the valance don't match correctly. Please correct me if I'm wrong., but it looks like the waist of a fat chick trying to fit into some skinny jeans.





Great looking car nevertheless. :up:

i probably say it in every picture thread... but your E30 is one of my favorite of all time.

[m3austin]

Yeah, its all about the ratio of zoom to aperature. Also, how separated your BG is from the car, if the car is close there isn't much bokeh, but when there is some distance, its pretty noticeable. The 18-200 VR is some great glass, especially if you're looking for something that is super versatile so you don't have to swap out lenses.

Also, to all those people that sent me requests for high-res. I've been busy lately but I'll send them out next week sometime. So don't worry, I didn't forget about ya ;)

Most of these shots were taken at 135mm f/5.6. I'm looking to pickup an 80-200 f/2.8 pretty soon here :D

I didn't realize that high of an f stop would still create so much bokah. Due to the longer focus. I wouldn't know anything about that, 18-55mm is about all I've got. haha. Sounds like a nice pick up, I'm wanting that 18-200mm VR. Camera + being a tech nerd isn't good for my wallet.

[m3austin]

Wouldn't call it absolute shit. Haha, pictures look pretty sharp to me. Gotcha, I was thinking the 1.8/50mm. Lens will get a lot of blur. Or I guess the term is bokeh. Now that you mention it I've heard that term before. But I suppose 3.5 and then zooming a bit will get that same effect. Interesting.

d200 is a nice camera. I've been lusting over that d90 though.
