Starting to get more into photography, A lot more. Cars and cameras = expensive hobby. :hsdance:
Anyways, Open for criticism any day. Hope you like some of the pictures even though they might not be of a nissan :facepalm:


Before you say anything on this first photo, almost no editing was done on it. His car was prepped for a show and was retarded clean. And the sun was blocked by the clouds. Everything else has some editing. :drama:

Great Photos man. Keep it up. They all look really good.
Welcome to Photography! :)

Nikon D80 Camera of choice? If you have the money you should bump up to the D7000 and try to sell your D80. D7000 is equal to the D300s minus a few buttons.

You got talent bro, I've added your first photo as a favourite on Flickr!

Use A nikon D80. All the pictures were taken with an 18-135mm lens besides the last two which were taken with an aspherical 11-18mm lens. And I've been looking at upgrading to a full-frame camera if I get more serious with my photography. Got very lucky and found the D80 in a taxi and been mastering that first.

that's a really really good start, you have a really good eye for composing the pictures, and the editing is on point. Now since you want criticism, here.
on the the first picture toward the middle/front area of the car there is a light pole or whatever, when you take pictures of cars try not to make things "grow" out of it, the first shot is a good example because it looks like the pole is growing from the hood of the car.
The second one is a decent picture, when taking pictures of cars in motion you should slow down your shutter speed to nothing less than 1/125th, the lower the better. When something is moving you want it to have a "moving effect"
this is the best example I have.

the rest of them are good. About your camera, don't upgrade to a full frame yet. Keep taking pictures and keep editing, buy a better lens. Buy a photography book, look at other people's pictures, try to get an idea of how the lines should be in the picture, or what setting is best for what condition. I hope you are using manual, aperture priority or shutter priority.
good luck and have fun!

^what he said.

Shoot in manual, learn your camera, and learn to cut out a lot of background drama. When shooting cars or objects, you need the car to be the focal point. The last two pictures were perfect.
