Keep in mind that this isn't a paid shoot! My husband is a mobile electronics installer and he's doing an all out custom audio job on this truck. I've been doing "build-up" sheets for him to put in his portfolio. Lately I've been thinking about trying to sell the photos to the owner of the vehicle. Any thoughts? Also, please keep in mind that these photos look much, much better when viewed full size, so don't forget to click on them!!

Ok, the first one of the full length side view, its a Great shot, of the truck, and the background work is nice too, but that parking lot has SERIOUS issues, too much dirt, sand, chipped paint, discolored spots, etc draws a large amount of attention away from the truck. What to do about it....short of reshooting....hmm, could try cloning out some distractions, but looks like way too much work for little payoff, could desat the parking lot only, not sure it'd make much difference, or reshoot a newly paved lot from the same angle then combine the image's in ps to get a nice clean parkin lot for the truck (prolly what I'd do) or move the truck onto another image of a different surface. Just MHO.

Do you live in Kansas? Olathe, OP area? I've seen that truck on the highway a few times!

Thank you for the comments! The parking lot was intentional to go with the ruggedness of the truck. Many professional truck shoots are done like this to give the feel of a rough and rugged auto. Wouldn't do it with a '06 Lambo, but I think it works well with this type of vehicle. Any comments about the others?

No I live in Nashville. This is just a special edition version of the Ram, they made more than 1...not sure exactly how many but I'm sure a few hundred at least.

the first shor is the best, but i agree with the first post in that the parking area needs to be remove and a new laoction found with less distraction, nice shots though
