Please take a look at a recent photoshoot I did with a "domestic" friend of mine. :) All critiques/comments are welcomed and appreciated.

Cool shots. The second one with the "see-thru" hood is pretty cool; I had to look twice at that one. =] Unique location you found for shooting the cars in that abandonded building. Nice job. I also like the 4th shot, how the Mustang looks like it is "hiding", getting ready to pounce on its prey... =]
I recently read that a typical advertising car shot is a combination of 40 exposures so that the lighting, highlights, reflections, etc. are "perfect". (Presumably the lighting is changed between shots while the camera and car remains stationary.)

Wow, that Bimmer is insane! Gorgeous shots too. I especially like the 6th photo of the BMW from a 3/4 front view in the parkade. The cool tones you used in conjunction with the silver color of the car work well. |

i must admit that i was struck most by the exact same picture - the industrial-esque setting and all the concrete suits the M3 very well. and these are brilliant locations you've found - great balanced capture of both cars and buildings. |

Nice work, Ronnie. IMG_0145-zm is my favourite - very clean professional look. |

EddyG - Thanks! The hood shot was a request of the owner. He wanted a cool see through photo. Very interesting about the 40 exposures idea.
C-town driver - Thanks! I'm a slave to that car, but it's worth it.
Redmoon - Thanks! I was very excited to find the barn and actually be able to pull that off. It took a little planning and a lot of luck to get by with those barn shots. Nobody bothered us though so it was fine.
PaulMdx - Thanks! Wow, everybody seems to like that shot. Even aside from you all, everyone that has seen the photos respond to that shot the most. It's funny how that works... You never really know what the majority will like until you put it out there. |

Ditto that! Pretty car and the location brings forth it's feral side!
I noticed in your post that this was in the Charlotte area? Charlotte, NC? If so, where is that fantastic old looking garage/barn? |

Cool shots, cool see through, but where are the girls, lol. Very good job. Nothing like a spanking clean car to shoot. |

Wow! Great photos of a barn!
Someone had to park some cars there and spoil the scene.
Joking, great pics. |
