Unofficial PH photographers calendar/gallery

[DustyC]

There was some talk of an official PH calendar recently and it sparked off some photography chat.

We have some great photographers here on PH and
I thought it would be a good idea to gather up some of you best motoring pictures on this thread.

(Not trying to take over Ted, just think it will be a nice selection of photgraphs. Keep up the good work with the official calendar, Im sure it will be a cracker).

I only have my car to photograph (other than an Avensis or ZX) so here are my favourites:





And a few random shots from different places:



And one which I reckon shows the nice side PF:

Gravymaster they are stunning photos

[ehasler]

Just a suggestion, but for those poor unfortunates still on dial up, how about we limit the number of pics to each post to 3 or 4 and try to keep sizes down?

P.S. Gravymaster - would your Enzo mate mind having a group of drooling photographers snap his car?

Might have to get a waterproof case for my camera first though!

gravymaster - I like the Viper, Ferrari badge, and the Jag. I think the Esprit might need a bit more contrast though.

Cheers! I (and indeed my camera) struggled with that photo. The sun was coming down behind the car so the exposure was a bit hit and miss. If you want to have a go in PS feel free!

PS David - your shot of the TVR CC flag is superb!

I have already had a bash at a PH calendar for this year. Unfortunately it was a bit late, but here are a couple of page samples:

Jeez, even broadband is groaning. Try some compression dudes!

[DustyC]

oi, simpo, email me! Your link doesnt work.

[gravymaster]

Thanks Magnus. I got a similar result when i was tampering with it a while back! I just thought that the noise was too great to really be usable as a print. Nevermind.

[docevi1]

I might delete my post then in this company

Must try to find a better car to photograph! (mines so badly scratched, dented and bumped that there isn't a good angle anymore )

I'll have a whirl when I have time this evening. It looks as if it is a scanned picture, is that right?
