Picked up a D90 this week just gone. Took a couple pics the other night. thought I'd throw some up here.

I'm still very new to whole photography scene, less than 1 week to be precise. Constructive critism welcome.

[lachlanw]

better than anything i can do . i recon you should cut an inch off the top and bottom of the first one and maybe some others, see how it looks

[l_uk3y]

Nice photos.

Came up really well. Very professional looking shots.

[Aggroman]

damn evo's on their stilts being able to get up and around the plaza carpark!

[Sl!m]

Needs more nissan badges

[Goi-turbo]

Evolution VII good!

standard?

[MaTBoY]

Aggro... it's Judges CarPark, behind high street. Less people there.

Yeah Goi, it's as stock as a rock... I had the vortex difuser (roof spikes) but the freeway really like them, and took them off my car.

Lachlan, are you suggesting to just zoom in more to cut more out, or to actually crop the image and keep it nice and wide? (i reckon the wide idea might be good. I'll do one and see what it looks like)

[RB25PWR]

Pictures look awesome dude. I gotta get me a good camera

[The Bogan]

Sweet you own a evo VII like me. Great fun car to drive and nice shots. Looking very good

[AKW]

Monochrome much?

Lol anyway, nice pictures mate, that looks good.

[spilmer]

you need to practice your parking skills

[GoldZilla]

Monochrome much?

Actually, that makes me think of something.

Matt, to get more "pop" in your photos, either bump up the saturation in Post-Processing of the photos, and/or try taking the car to an environment with more contrasting colours. Because your car is a light silver colour, you need to find a background with more colour than "concrete grey" - even if some of the pylons are painted in more colours, it could just be enough...

[CLNSKY]

Pics look good mate, i also have recently bought a D90!

Should pm me to share some settings and experiences

If your in syd could come out with a shoot as well!!

Cheers

Colin

[bretth]

like the 2nd shot. well done

[MaTBoY]

Thanks for the feedback.

Great thinking Nick! Your a gun!

Clnsky, I'm usually floating around Penrith.

Actually just about to head out the door to try out pics with a tripod for first time.

Will post some up later

[MaTBoY]

NEW!!!!!!!!!!

I'm pretty sure I can see an improvement already Thoughts?

[GoldZilla]

Much better, mate! Good work!

Where was that? I'm thinking I might try the parking lot at Rouse Hill Town Centre shops if I'm out that way one night and the carpark is still open.

[MaTBoY]

Its at penrith plaza. You can go there any time, the guards don't usually care. In fact they usually come up and say hi. One guard came up last night and was talking cars to me, and recommended deviantart.

I took the pic there with only half the car reflected because I thought it was add something interesting to the pic, but in hindsight I might have tried to get the whole car reflected. I'll do it that way next time and compare.
