Yes, I did, but I never processed those. I really liked how it turned out with the headlights on, so I didn't bother processing the same picture again

Getting a bit more advanced here, but if you have an exposure from the same exact setup with the lights off, maybe you can use the lights off version to help bring out some details in the lights so that they don't blow out so much

^ That's a good idea. Although, I didn't use a tripod (since I don't have one anymore haha).

Thanks! I've already got a couple contributors lined up, both of whom are well versed in the industry. Things are definitely looking up...I haven't even shared the Facebook page with anyone yet and it's already got over a dozen fans!

EVERYONE:

If you feel that this thread has been helpful to you, I'd like to include a link to your portfolio (or where ever we can find your photos) on the Noƒ8 website as a testament to how you've found this thread helpful. I'm not totally sure what I'll call it yet, but it'll be a permanent place where everyone can see how everyone has progressed from this thread. Please leave a link here or PM/email it to me

INKMAN · 09-18-2012, 01:09 PM

The only thing I have is my Flickr page which has all my photos, automotive being a small part of it. Any suggestions on how to maybe get just all my aoutomotive stuff together so people can see?

If you group your automotive photos into a gallery or set, then you can just link directly to that

Thanks! Obviously, I know your real name...but for everyone else, please include that (or at least how you'd like me to list you on the website).

I'll also be using one link for each person, so please let me know which one you prefer most.

INKMAN · 09-18-2012, 02:05 PM

Here's my automotive group on Flickr. My name is Greg. It has a lot of my old stuff on there (which is now embarassing to me)

IMO, that is part of the point, showing that progress and hopefully inspiring others. It could be worse, if I remember correctly you skipped the HDR phase.

Pedro, I disagree. There is obvious improvement in your work. Being negative is the best way to inhibit your progress.

INKMAN · 09-19-2012, 12:08 PM

As long as the point is made that I'm an "improvement" case, and no I never got into the HDR phase, not a fan of 99% of it. I definitely think I have improved a great deal and I'm confident in that. I've spent a TON of time in this thread and practicing and I think it has payed off. I do get yelled at for some selective coloring now and then though.
