Wollaton Park car show pics

[Typhon]

A few photos I took today. I'm not really pleased with them, I only had a couple of hours there, and there were lots of people around/in the way, etc, but here's the ones that came out somewhat good, anyway.
Hopefully I'll be able to use my 'new' camera a lot more over the summer too, haven't really had time lately.








Found these in the car parking area (amongst other things!)

i think that they could all look a lot more impressive with minor tweaking of levels etc

i really like 5 (the engine bay). and i think that 3 is v nice, but could maybe be even better if you crop out some of the inner wheel arch in the top left? (in my opinion)

but nice

That's the trouble with car shows, there's always people gawping and standing in the wrong place at the wrong time. Was thinking your shots look quite contrasty for an overcast day and wondered if you have it turned up a bit high in the camera ? I've got mine turned down a step from Canon's default and wouldn't want any more contrast in the photos on my Goodwood thread.

I just had the camera contrast set to normal, and I auto level/contrast/colour'ed the pictures in photoshop. I'm really no expert at editing photos unfortunatley. I'm still trying to work out how to transfer the raw files to my computer and edit those, maybe they would give me better results? Either way I'll see if I can improve these in the next few days. I agree that they could be much better
