trwebb26 Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 The quality of the pictures is very impressive... like I'd expect them to come right out of a nissan brochure. Nice job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blue72 Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 Very nice indeed. I hadn't yet seen one in blue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m4xwellmurd3r Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 Wow those are great shots. There is only one thing that really bothers me about the 370z's body. it's this recent trend auto manufactures have of clipping off the flares at a total flat point. It's like they made these huge flares, then said, oh, too big, and stuck them to a flat grinder to get rid of the excess material. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAG58 Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 Agreed, And I'm not sure if I'm a fan of the 'fangs' in the front fascia either... But it's still a gorgeous car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think about how easy and cool a carbon fiber flare "extension" would attach to that flat lip on the side! Nice photos BTW!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam393 Posted July 11, 2009 Share Posted July 11, 2009 God I love that car the more i see it, nice pics! What camera are you using? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turbojohnny Posted July 11, 2009 Author Share Posted July 11, 2009 the camera is a nikon D60 just using the kit lens until i can afford another(if ever) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LowCarbZ Posted July 11, 2009 Share Posted July 11, 2009 I suppose I should post some pics of my Old Man's black 370Z... Been meaning to do so, just haven't yet lol. For anyone who gets the chance to drive one of these, do it! They're more performance than you'd expect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PanzerAce Posted July 11, 2009 Share Posted July 11, 2009 I think I just found the color I want when I get my Z repainted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drax240z Posted July 12, 2009 Share Posted July 12, 2009 Try a little less saturation in camera or in post... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drax240z Posted July 13, 2009 Share Posted July 13, 2009 (edited) The saturated look can work really well, to my eye though this is a little over the top. Tough to do with a blue car, but it is a good way to get drama into the sky. I find blue cars tough to shoot in open areas because of that. If you're shooting a red car it's easy enough to over saturate the blues and get that dramatic effect in the sky without the car looking retouched. If those are straight out of the camera shots, I'd dial back saturation in the camera and add it back in post-processing as desired. Shot #4 could do with a little bit of flash (even the on camera one) just to lighten up the rear of the car a touch, doesn't need a lot... obviously the sky is exposed well though, nice drama there. I think my favorites are #4 and #9. Take lots of shots and fiddle, it's a great hobby. Edited July 13, 2009 by Drax240z Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LowCarbZ Posted July 13, 2009 Share Posted July 13, 2009 My sarcasm detector could be broken but I think he meant the cougar of the Mercury variety. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
