I've been meaning to ask, but do you have any tips for taking pictures of yellow stangs? My problem is that nothing really reflects off of it so a lot of my pictures of it come out "flat" and it's like the paint has no depth.
Yeah, like Pcola said, take pictures in the shade. Trees, buildings, etc. Anything to block out the sun.

Awesome pics as usual Ryan. Was a fun day for sure. Hopefully next time John will have his solenoid situation under control. Will have some V6 races going on lol.

Chin spoilers always finish the front. It's amazing what those little pieces of plastic do for our cars. I look like a damn ghost in the passenger seat lol.

That old shitty shop made for a badass background. Compliments your car perfectly. Looks sooo much better lowered man!

Switch, IDK why, but it seems like pics you post from your website either take forever to load or don't load at all.. Never have any issues viewing any other pics from anyone else, are you exceeding your bandwidth or something?

I would put a car or two on him and then he would slowly catch up. at the top of 4th for him around 120+ we were right next to each other. Its basically pretty damn even right now.

Don't worry about the racing we were in the middle of no where on a dead end road with no houses or anything on it.

Hm, I have no clue. I just loaded them up from a friend's computer and they loaded almost instantly. I have unlimited bandwidth as well.

Yeah, we weren't dicking around anywhere where we could be endangering other people. In the middle of nowhere is an understatement. The only things for miles were fields and cows.

Yep. That's why I took us out there. No one to worry about.

Best place I could think of. Plus, it is me that led us out there. You have to remember who you're dealing with.

Edit:



That little person next to Dustin is me rocking the **** out of my Alice in Chains 'Jar of Flies' shirt!


I kind of regret not going to more places to take pictures and I was soooo pissed that they had something going on at both the places I had planned to take pictures at. Goddamn the revitilazation of downtown Lakeland!

John, who the hell did you think was going to call the cops on you?

I apologize for not leading you guys back to I4. It was just pretty far out of my way, as I live about 30 minutes west of the cemetery.

This guy who came out of a uhaul and just got on the phone with someone calling them and telling them i was on their property. I guess the person was having trouble with someone in a mustang. Also the place had a **** load of private property no trespassing signs lol.

Yeah, on the way back going towards I4 we found this run down building next to a gas station so we stopped to take a few pics there. While we were there, some guy came out and got on the phone with some guy saying "there are these guys trespassing in your driveway."

looks about the same as a smart-blur filter on a low setting to me.

you lost sharpness on the street.

Does lightroom have a masking and layering abilitys like photoshop>? you should apply the filter as a mask then paint it on where you wan tit so you dont lost the resolution in the rest of the pic.

EDIT: oh thanks switch just delete yer friggin post so my comment makes no sence.

***.

I went and took a walk through downtown orlando today. Next time I'm going to bring the wide angle lens, because I felt very limited with my zoom lens.

It looks like you use quite a bit of clarify on those duck pictures (still good though), and that lotus is sick.
