Infiniti G35 coupe : Testing new lens

m3_love · 03-08-2009, 05:42 AM

Hey guys, just testing out my new lens, and after some quick editing, the pix came out all right I guess, let me know, any critics and comments would be appreciated

btw sorry but the car's kinda dirty.

Sweet!!! wide angle lens? Congrats! looks really good!

Here's a really quick photoshoping

before:

after:

I like to increase the contrast and saturation of most of the pics. While it may not be 'lifelike', i like the more dramatic effect, although some people don't like it. The other trick is to make different exposure of the picture and overlay them, creating HDR photos. It's kinda of time consuming, and each picture may require some finishing touch to get it to look the way you want, but it's worth it imo. There's different methods of doing it but it can all be done with photoshop cs3.
I'm not an expert or anything and have much to learn.

Hit me up soon bro!

No after pic. The shots kinda distort the true length/size of the car which I don't like too much but good pics.

That's the money shot with the vivid sky.

Good pix. If I weren't such a cheapskate, I'll splurge for the lens too, lol.

Thanks bro, I took your advice and messed with the saturation a little bit, makes the blue stand out better. BTW I should get my car back by end of this week, I'll hit you up to see if you want to do another shoot
