Talking Hi again from SusanH1070's son Joey!

I haven't picked up the camera for a while, so today I borrowed my mom's Canon. This is one of my favorite die cast model cars from the movie Smokey and The Bandit. I took all of these pictures by myself, and sat with my mom at the computer and asked her to make them look the way I wanted in Photoshop.

Thanks for looking and please let me know what you think!

My 11 year old son took this!

Well done with the photographs, the car almost looks real. The angles are well thought out.

Congratulations

Looks like I'm gonna have a serious competitor in the area of car photography, I'd better sharpen up my skills!! ...wait to go big guy, you made it look lifesize!

Sup Joey

Good to see you shooting some. I really like your choice of subject.. that was an awesome car when it first came around, I had a friend who had one ( his father worked for a radios station and he was spoiled rotten ) ..

I like the head-on shot in the 1st, you got the eagle decal in the hood, the reflection in the windshield and a view of the interior is really cool .. the lights looks like they are on too, doesn;t really look like a model of a car.

like the colors in the second,, especially the gold stripe in the paint and the green grass.. ok, the license plates colors are cool too ( but I always look past the obvious )

the 3rd on the angle has really nice details in the wheels and I like the reflections off the paint.. looks like it's moving down the road

the 4th photo is pretty cool .. abstract, like a ink drawing , like the shapes and the effect.

good stuff ! would like to see more when your into it !

Vin
