Goodspeed: Thanks for the advice, I definitely agree with you about cutting things off as a poor setup... most of these shots I did not take time to setup properly. Didn't mess around with tripods or anything, just walking around the dealership snapping shots that I thought might look decent. Polarizer is on my list of things to get and play around with. Shooting mid-day didn't seem too terrible but the only reason I did it was because of my appointment. :lol:
Mrbaggio: I agree about the first two pictures, I made the same comments to myself but posted them anyways for feedback reasons. Both of those shots were taken in much different light so I have not mastered my light perception yet. Thanks for the comments. Please keep them coming. Probably going to try and shoot some more today with perhaps some tripod action but I like just learning walk around at this point. Thats the WRB Forester XT... love those things, although I think I'd like it in black.
I tried messing around with #3 in an older photoshop program to try and get the car to "pop" a little more but I think I just underexposed the shot a bit much in that I used a higher ISO to avoid getting blur (really should have used a tripod). Going to try and play around with wide angle and distortion a bit today. Wish me luck. :roll:
