Aston Vanquish session

[Forthright MC]

evenin' all,
felt its about time i posted something in here, am quite keen on taking nice pictures from time to time and now i've finally got myself a proper camera (Canon Powershot A460 compact) i enjoy it even more
went along and took some shots of my uncles Vanquish earlier today, the car was a bit dirty, but the light conditions wer just right, quite pleased with how they have come out! enjoy,

Hope your Uncle has a disabled badge on the dash - I can't see one....

Nice car, horrible location - get out on the open road and have another go when the background is more interesting than a car park, it will make a world of difference!

someone nabbed his usual space and that disabled bay was the only one left at the time
cheers for the pointer, i've intended to photograph the car in a nice loaction away from this buiness park for a while now and i've got a few nice areas in mind that'd make a nice pic...

not at all these both look fantastic!
i might have to show these to him, cheers!

Not bad shots, but when composing your shot don't forget to think about the backgrounds too, this shot had some distractions behind the main subject.
Its worth learning how to use a paint package if you haven't already. This took no more than 5 mins.

Touched up in pshop

Whilst in PS, I'm surprised no one moved the disabled bay markings to the completely empty bay next to the car

[Forthright MC]

thanks guys, not the most ideal place to get good pictures, but i will try to remember these hints when i next take some pics and try and get less of the background distractions included in the shot, cheers for the Pshop enhanced images too! thats another thing i might have to get myself more acquainted with...

Why have the exhausts gone white?

[CivicMan]

Gone!

I like the top one (although I'd rotate it left a bit).

As for locations... I think Astons work well in the open

yeah the top one is the one that surprised me the most! i really tried to make that one stand out
i think i have to agree, Astons look tremendous out in the open, great work in the link!

heres some other pics i've taken of the car before i got my decent camera (these were taken on my Sony Cybershot camera phone) same location unfortunately, but last time my uncles business associate was there with his V8 Vantage!,

[CivicMan]

Me again!

that looks great, cheers mate!

[stigmundfreud]

your uncle seems to have issues parking - either disabled bay or over two bays

[Forthright MC]

bump with some new pics in a new location,

[GetCarter]

Not so sure the location helps much! Can't you nick his keys and take it somewhere nice? (L plates on of course

Here's a few more of the Vantage I have added since last time
