RE: Pic of the Week: McLaren 12C Spider
Friday 13th July 2012
As what seems like the 15th rain shower of the day drums on the roof of PH HQ, it seems like an open-top car is a singularly pointless device in the British summer.
Pic of the Week: McLaren 12C Spider
Sunshine, an empty road and a drop-top supercar. Lovely
But the new McLaren 12C spider does at least get its hard top in place in just 17 seconds and, as the video McLaren released yesterday seems to suggest, looks like quite a hoot in which to hoon around, rain or shine.
So we thought McLaren's latest road car deserved a spot of POTW action. And if you're wondering what all the brightness in the picture is, we believe it's known as sunshine...

I agree with your there, too much light on the right side.
I think the photo's been HDR'd to death hence the enhanced detail and a result in a 'fake' looking shot.still an excellent shot none the less and an even better subject, I think this looks better than the coupe!

There's something not right about that shadow work at the back, particularly, the darker one that comes off the wheel.
Stops a bit suddenly.
They've used an off carmera flash at the front of the car to light the side of the car, but it wasn't powerful enough so they've lifted the shadows in that area of the photos. Because they've done that the reflections have been brought out quite a lot.Stops a bit suddenly.
Having said that, I'd die to be in that position doing that shoot!
