Default New camera, new header, new exhaust, winter rims...Boredom shoot.

Got bored tonight and I've only had the camera 1.5 weeks so I'm still learing, this is my first shoot with it. Suggestions, compliants, flames are all welcome...Photography pointers would be very very appreciated.






*Edit* new pics. Decided these were okay to post.

Nice pictures, the backgrounds really stand out to me so good choices there. Maybe try to get a little better light on the car I guess.

Rims are just some Eagle Alloy's, don't know the model number, good tires for winter driving. Camera was a Canon A85 as far as the settings go, they varied, mainly just adjusted the shutter speed, played with the aperture some. ISO was kept at 50 for all the shots, had a 2 second timer and "Vivid color" setting on. I did use a tripod.

all i can say is keep playing around with it, just take random shots and experiment with different settings. thats really the only way to get better and learn!

Oh they are in the garage...sitting, cleaned and pretty. And yes that is the Streetimports header...it actually fit great, counter to what I was told. Car feels quicker and spins the tires more now with the new exhaust set-up so I'd say there is an improvement.

Not a CTR, OEM optional lip.

I posted most of the setting up towards the top...PM me if you have any questions. All of the places were pretty dark except for the Building with the glass.

Shutter speed varied, Aperture was usually between 2.8 and 5, ISO at 50 and vivid color mode on, no flash and 2 second timer to further help steadyness of the old shitty tripod I was using.
