Just now got around to cleaning the car and getting some good photos after tinting the windows and lowering it. Also just got a dslr camera so I am still learning on the best way to shoot with it so some pics are good and some are ok. Let me know what you think.









And here is the first HDR Photo I have ever done and I have zero experience with anything photo related except resizing and taking the pic. It could be better but I think its decent for my first one, just needs to be alot closer to the car.




I just not finally started modding my Cooper S about 2 months ago after having it a year. In about a 3 week time period I did all the mods except the wheels and lightbar. Here is the mod list now:

Alta 17% pulley
aFe Intake
One ball exhaust mod
Megan Coilovers
Megan Camber Arms
Ireland Engineering 22mm Sway Bar
eBay headlights
20% tint
Falken Azenis RT-615 tires
Beltline Blackout
TSW Stud Kit

Very nice!

 

Nice MINI

 

loosk great and nice pic..

 

Looking good!!!

 

Congratulations on your car and your camera. Looks like you have good taste picking both.

 

Both car and pics look great. BTW, what is "HDR?"

 

HDR is kind of a new thing in photography. It is where you take 7 photos from the exact same spot on different light settings and then you layer them together. It creates a highly detailed image with alot of color contrast. You can also do some amazing things to make the main part of the image to stand out from the rest also.

 

Looks GREAT - what wheels are on the car? oops I see they are Flik wasps.

 

The MINI and the pics look great!

(Not sure I'm liking the new MO plates though. I kinda prefer the old ones.)

 

They're kind of bland IMO

 

What make are those wheels, they are hot!

 

Very nice pics man, I do like the HDR pic aswell..

Looking foreward to some more pics soon!

 

I think number 1 is your best shot, but an good overall group. If you plan to shoot more pics of the car, invest in a circular polarizing filter. Heck, invest in one regardless!

I gotta ask... what camera?



HDR is High Dynamic Range, and is really just the combined exposure levels of a image. It is a little different than the contrast of levels, and is more the range of values of light and dark... So like midMOminiFun said, you can use 7 different exposures. You can also do it with 1 shot, and any number up from there, they just need exposure range. Fun stuff, huh? an extremely quick and dirty example :http://s228.photobucket.com/albums/e...tonemapped.jpg
