Formula Photoshoot

**SVTBAIT** · 10-27-2008, 06:34 PM

This is likely the last batch of pictures that I will grab for the year, and coincidently the first that I have posted up here. It's supposed to snow later this week, so I took advantage of the nice weather today and grabbed some pictures before the car goes away.

Please let me know what you think. Constructive criticism is always welcome.

nice man. never been a big fan of those rims, but they just look good on that car. and that 'body molding piece to help prevent front bumper scratches', sorry, don't know what it's called. but it looks good man. where is this setting at?

OUTSTANDING!!!

I saw the first pic elsewhere as your POTM entry. Great shot. Wonderful backdrop.

Thanks for the comments.

The splitter is a rather controversial part, although I am extremely pleased with it.

The pictures was taken at a local beach. There happened to be a boat launch there as well, so I parked the car on it. The other ones are located on top of a high tech building's parking garage.

Mr. Lous, I saw your picture there too. It looks outstanding. I feel you have a good chance of winning.

What program do you use to do your HDR images? I took many of them with different exposures, so I can do HDR...unfortunately I don't have PS.

I use PhotoMatix Pro.
Although...I try to keep the smoothing up to try to keep the 'fake' look out of it.

Thanks though. I always feel like I get snubbed, but it is all in fun anyways. I enjoy getting pictures of the car, so it doesn't bother me.

SVTBAIT...PM me, or turn on your PM's. Might be able to help you get PhotoMatix.

Those pictures are great! What camera and lens did you use? I really need to pick up a wide angle lens.

Thanks! I was using a Nikon D80 with a Nikon 12-24mm lens.

WOW nice pics!

I have the trial version of Photomatrix and don't wanna spend to get the full version so anything I do just for the fun of it has the freaking watermark on it ... lol

Its just $100.00 come on.......I payed like $700.00 for photoshop CS3 so I had no problem spending the 100 for PhotoMatix.

Nice looking formy the location makes it for sure, glassy water at sunset, good work!

Wow, great looking Formula! I know this has likely been talked about in another thread, but what tires do you have out back? I really want to get a set of those, but I keep forgetting what they are called...Thanks

Yes, they are. KDW 2 / KDW "New Tread"

They are 295/35/18's.

Amazing pictures! You need to lower it a bit IMO.

Id love to see your formy on the front page!

**BADASS2000SS** · 02-28-2009, 07:18 PM

Real nice car, really nice photos! Like a proffesional.

**Packy** · 03-04-2009, 06:38 AM

Nice car! I dig the photos near the beach. Have you ever considered lowering it an inch or so... IMHO I think that would really compliment the other mods you have performed.
