can you guys share ur photgraphy tips? i notice we have a few skilled photographers here. a couple being roaring turtle, and kjeg94. you guys' pics always come out awesome. great exposure and subject framing.

how do i get my subject in focus, and the background blurry? i dont want to resort to photoshop filters. whats a nice place to take pics? i see a lot of rooftop parking structures, and fancy buildings. or rooftop parking structures with fancy buildings in the background....ahem ahem roaring turtle

one tip i can share for night pics is to use a tripod, long exposure, and NO FLASH. the flash makes the reflectors look like HIDs lol.

lastly, what kind of camera do you guys use? i use a fuji 4900zoom.

and also, can u post some of ur pics? doesnt have to be of cars, could be scenery, or whatever u happened to capture.

**** terrorists

 

thanks for the props man. I use a digital Nikon 950. Best tips i can have is use scenery and places that bring out what the car has. Like u said, tripods are also important. Here is a few shots i have taken that im proud of.. I must say though. the best photographer on this board is my friend Jeremy Domingo. His personal site will be up soon showcasing cars, landcapes, and portraits. Ill add the link to this thread when its up.. anyways . here is some of my work:

 

I could see that all day.... Nice pics everyone... I must get a digicam.

 

here is just some of Jeremy's Work

 

some nice pics there

 

Subject in focus, with the background out of focus is a function of depth of field. You can control it by adjusting your f-stop or aperature. Your f-stop controls the amount of light that is let through your lens and consequently onto your film. The numbering on f-stops is inversely related to the size of the aperature.

Example : f5.6 gives you a larger hole -O- while f32 gives you a smaller hole -o-

The lower your f-stop, the shallower your depth of field will be. This means that with, say f5.6, basically only your subject will be sharp...and maybe even not all of your subject! A higher f-stop gives you more of your surrondings in focus.

I'm not the most articulate when it comes to explaining these things, so I apologize if I gave you no help whatsoever.

I don't know what kinds of adjustments you have availible on your digital camera, but you should definately play around with it to find your aperature settings.

I'm a photography student in case you were wondering...

 

damn this guy is really good

 

Absolutely amazing!!

 

in jeremys pic, how did he get the car and background so sharp, and the road a sharp blur like that?

 

50 mph with a slower shutter speed...that's how

 

why the **** are you posting pics of my car on honda-tech.
deleteeee the yellow hatchback mods.
thanks.

 

yeah mine are snapped from brooklyn. right above the BQE.

 

cool pics but they look like a blownup thumbnails. u have the original file? JPGs detiriorate in quality every time u save and resave them thereafter.

 

KJEG and Jeremy Domingo gots skills!

 

the highest f-stop on my camera is F11. with little success, i tried taking a picture of my car like this, and i got a very small portion of the subject focused. everything else was blurry. thanks for the tip.

 

people who quoted KJEG94 and have the yellow EK in there, please edit your post.
Mod's, please delete that picture ASAP

 

i don't think anyone heard you.

 

of course not.. message forums dont talk.

 

well being a smartass is probably why the mods aren't deleting pictures of your car. whats the big deal anyway?
