Had great fun and all. Here's my shot after all. Enjoy.

Not the best profile for a car. It's usually shot from top downwards.

yes.. i have that.. im just trying different compositions.

The car composition is still fine for me. Try an evening settings when the sun goes down, perhaps will add some dramatic on it

Nice blue sky and vignetting...
Myvi Rox...

I like the blue and white theme

Well someone did mention before that if you see all the car shots, their rims are always facing the camera. Perhaps turn the car tyres so that the face of the rim is towards the camera.

nice man!! btw if the rim can look more then its better..........haha

how much ur have crop off from both side? ?

do that even matter?

not balance of composition

then please, be kind and elaborate what is the term "balance of composition" mean to you?

hope this can help u

i dont see any imbalanced composition here.

just my own problem

u failed again.

i asked what's ur opinion. Well, u said it yourself, its your own opinion. I have no argue with that.

oh, soli my wrong again

i love the vignetting and the sky tinting.

just that if u could steer the wheel to the extreme right to give more stylish exposure to it.

goddamit what am i saying. i'm still drunk over a sleepless day in hospital.. huhu..

anyway, i hope u get what i mean.

good.

i think if the car is lowered (to the max) then it is better to take a shot from this angle ... otherwise dont. just my opinion.

but i like ur car... i mean the pic anyway .. well done!

Er.. we purposely chose morning because it's always raining in the evening... actually there was another car shoot session earlier before this, but now postponed till we can get a good weather on evenings frequently. =)

Thanks.. but.. erm.. it's not vignetting.. it's a "fake" ND.

Will take note of that.. thanks.

Yeap.. agree on that.. i wished i could turn the wheels digitally

er... 1.8765cm + 3.5643cm.. LOL.. have i enlighten you?

Wow.. great help!

Thanks.. i guess it's just personal preferences...

Should be?

Yeap... i get what you mean. thanks. there will be a lot more of chances on other cars.. will take note on that..

Thanks for your compliment. apprieciate that a lot... My myvi is just a standard myvi with tinting only.. Lols..

Perhaps you have a better modded car that you would like to try out to have a photoshoot of it.



Anyway... Radical, thanks for replying for me. apprieciated that too...

Just a note, this pic is inspired by top gear. haha.... malunya wanna say this out...

Derek87, i understand what u mean coz i a big fan of TG magazine! I would wan to try that effect to in the future, but not with my myvilah , hahahha!

haha.. im trying this on my myvi first... coz next time there will a few other cars.. dun want them to get disappointed... anyway.. just call me derek will do..

Here is the 2nd composition i have shot... wanted to try something different in editting this time... I overblown the front part a bit, just because i wanted to make the car pop out from the background. Not sure i have done it right... here it is... A warmer feeling picture..

damn its nice!! I love myvi SE. My dream car

nice compo i like the angle!

Your dream car? aiks... yeah.. it's a fun car to drive.. but i prefer nissans..

Thanks... now i need a bigger space with nothing on the floor... hm..

white cars arent easy to shoot, most of the time all the details and shapes will be blown off; black or red cars consumes most of the reflection. The best is still silver cars!

I want to see the Lancer Evolution. What is this? ... hehehehe

The Lan Evo is silver.

2nd one doesnt seem right
car is distorted

cannot show the actual dimension of the car
