So Who's Car is it?
 

I'm pretty sure that your car is the same color as the one pictured, but correct me if I'm wrong... That's an '05...:confused:

Great pictures though...:thumbsup:

It's not my MINI (mine is DS/W).

The owner is from the area, but isn't on NAM. I'm glad you like the photos, it was a fun shoot.

That is a nice trick photo with the hood "see through"

Me likey :thumbsup:

Very nice shots. The hood trick... two lock down tripod shots... then Photoshop?

Excellent shots!!! I like it!:thumbsup:

Nah one camera... and lots of vegetable oil on the hood!:lol:

the brick wall and steering wheel... :thumbsup:

Love those pix!! Nice set DiD!

minimonkey: That's how it was done, although mbabischkin's idea might work to. Anyone want to try that method?

I like that first shot DiD... It's totally Abercrombie, lol... looks pro :thumbsup:

Hmm, I think by now we should all expect that DiD IS a pro!!! :lol: :thumbsup:

I agree though, those shoots look like a part of a MINI fashion campaign. :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

I love the engine shot. :thumbsup:

Yes the engine shot is the coolest in an artistic view. Like the first shot too. Very GQ.:thumbsup:

I think MINI2 and NAM need to add a button in the compose window that inserts "Great shots again, DiD!"

Very nice pics. I LOVE that translucent bonnet shot. :thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:

I have some ideas for doing another bonnet shot. Hopefully soon I'll get a chance to do do it.

Here's one more photo.

Nice pics. I think it is a 2005 model, it just has halogen headlights.

Nice work! Did you shoot digital? (If so, please tell me where I can get those Kodachrome flash cards!)

LOL! Good one!

:thumbsup:

You could really freak people out and have the hood shot transferred to vinyl and put on a real hood. :thumbsup:

:thumbsup: That's it exactly.

Yes, I only shoot digital (Nikon D70). The photos above, like most of my photos, were shot RAW and then processed using Nikon Capture to custom adjust white balance and curves.

Beautiful work. Which, in case you didn't get it, is what I meant by my Kodachrome remark:
-

:lol: It's just a little early in the morning for me. Thanks for the clarification. :thumbsup:

:thumbsup:. I like the first shot. I almost like the additional shot but I think the lines of the car follow the lines of the corrugate too closely and it subdues the car... but maybe thats what you were going for!? :)

Good stuff as always Dave!

I like the engine shot of course...but I am a little bias due to the fact that I did that one back in Feb...heh eh...yeah!
