    I think I finally have some pictures of my car that I like! Drove around downtown with a friend, we took about 100 pics. I took a few of my favorites, cropped and tweaked the color a little on a couple of them, and here they are. I will probably be posting more of these as I sort through them and play around with background effects. I might even do an HDR or two.

    Comments appreciated, even negative ones. Gotta learn somehow...

    the pics are nice but the first one would look better from up higher and the last one from ground level and a bit more to the front.

    what color is your car exactly?

    Like these two?

    Found out recently, the color was apparently a custom mix. But it's extremely close to "Mineral Gray Metallic."

    Reminds me of how one time when my dad's friend wanted his truck repainted. They didn't have enough of one color to paint the whole truck so they mixed them all thogether and ended up with a purple truck.

    And I like the pics, especially the first one, it looks magazine-worthy. :thumbs2:
