Bumped into a proffessional photographer yesterday

[Chilliman]

Was taking some some snaps of the Chim down the forest yesterday afternoon in the sunshine, using my iphone. Chap walked over with the biggest camera I've ever seen in my life and asked me if I'd like him to take pictures for me and he'd email them to me. Top guy, changed the lens on his camera and took some shots, got them through this afternoon. I'm posting this because I am truly gobsmacked at the photos. The quality is down as I've obviously compressed the photo to put it on the forum. He's a proffessional photographer and he has a website, and is based in Norfolk. PM me if you think you need proper pics of your car. It's the least I can do for getting some free proper pics.

I just think this looks awesome (unbiased opinion obviously)

looks a great place for photos but he should have kept the gate out of the picture, great day for a drive though

Just imagine how good the end product would be if he had a Griff as the subject

Fecking typical, here I am posting something I thought might interest people and all I get is Griff. Er, sorry, meant grief......

Can easily imagine. Nowhere near as good as a Chimaera. Wise up.

I think he has done a good job considering what he had to to work with

Are those GoodYear Eagle F1 D3s I spy? The Panda has the same tyres The car looks great. Brilliant spot of luck. Lets see your pictures taken using the phone for comparison.

Nice pic Chilli. Atmospheric! I guess in Forestry Commission land, Thetford. Gate and forest isle in background is ok. Suggest next time. Sit relaxed on gate with car in foregrouind with pine trees and isle in background and shot taken some distance for edit trim. Smiles from Griff man, Cambridge.

not sure i agree. If anyone is thinking of hiring a pro I'd suggest someone else...

They look more like Toyo Proxes:



Than Goodyear F1 GS-D3s to me:



I'm pretty ashamed of myself for evening having an opinion though!
