New Camaro Shoot

[Bob_Defly]

It's funny, this car never really got my attention when it first came out, although I did look at it semi-seriously, but I didn't think the kids would fit in the back. During the shoot it really grew on me, the evil front look, the rear haunches, and I love the tail lights. With 300+bhp the V6 is most definitely lots of bang for buck, and the Victory Red paint is a real head turner, I saw lots of people eyeing this car up as we moved between locations.

Anyway, on with the pics...

Nice shots of a very photogenic car (and colour!). You have some great locations near you. First and the last are my fave but I do like the processing on close up on the badge.

Had a look on Flickr - really really nice work! Im just wondering though.. Can you recommend a good website or other source where I can learn the basic HDR processing technique? My issue is I dont really have any idea about how to go about manually blending the shots..

I really like this one, out of interest what camera / lens combo was it taken with? The bokeh is very nice indeed The other shots are nice, you can tell there has been some post, but in most of them it doesn't feel that there is too much in the way of tinkering

It was my 50mm 1.4 on a D300. Shot at f/3.5. The 50mm 1.4 is one of my favourite lenses.
