No post processing in this one. The color came out real well. What kind of angle would you all of used? I would love to see/here what you would do different.

Red is a hard colour to capture, well done!

I would have tried to go down a bit lower (body with camera pointing up) and moved my position around a little to the left to cut out the distracting car to the right.
Color came out almost dead on. I was quite pleased. Cool
Thanks btw Studioj.
I take car pictures at the rate of around 60 a week.... for my car dealership. I take 3/4 front shots much like that one, I try to be a little higher to show the hood and roof are free of dings and dents..... that said, for an "art" photograph I would prefer a lower angle much like StudioJ suggested.
Teddy, My advise would be to gety in tighter and take some angle shots. That truck has some great curves. Use the length of the vehicle to add depth. For what its worth, here are some examples of stuff I like to shoot. Its a bit different that the regular straight on shots, but makes for nice detail.

Jerry love the pictures. Something to aspire to.

Christian I like the blurred surroundings of the car. I had done a desaturation of the surroundings I think I like yours better.

Thank all of you for the advice. I will try to follow the angles the next opportunity I get.

Wow, lovely photos, jerry! I hope they make it into the gallery... Big Grin
