A quick photoshoot [335i, EVO X, M3] [NO 56k!]

m2kev · 12-06-2008, 02:52 AM

So tonight I decided to get together with some buddies and take photos in a parking structure. Camera used was a Nikon D80, this is the second time I use this camera and still don't know how to work it. We just tried various angles and messed around a little bit, nothing professional, just for fun, and yes I NEED A TRIPOD

. I also messed around with photoshops features. If you guys could give me tips on how to take better pics I would greatly appreciate it. Enjoy...

Btw, I drove the ///m3 smg (stock) for the first time, and WOW what raw power.. felt so amazing and so aggressive compared to my 335i (stock) really fun car to drive and the torque kind of surprised me!

I thought this was cool , i did it by accident.

I believe its 35% and yes chainsaw came to my mind when I floored through the gears on the e46m3

Nice pics, but I guess you didn't use a tripod.

I didn't use spacers, the wheels were made to flush with the fenders

Nice car positioning and great angles, could use some focus on a few of the shots.
