just got home from a sunset photoshoot with kitkit. very cool dude and cool photographer. I'm waiting anxiously to see the pics too. I can give you a preview of what I took with my phone but he is gonna have the sick pics






and one of the new exhaust

 

Nice behind the scenes action! That's awesome!! thanks!! Thanks for meeting up with me and my wife tonight. We found a random spot in the middle of no where and it turned out pretty good because there was no cars there and the background worked!

In no particular order here goes..

Whew... that's a lot of photos!! Enjoy Ryan!!

 

^^ guys those shots are amazing. Editing is beautiful. Ryan best shot is first and see thru hood. Gorgeous. Nice work guys. Kit kit we need u in va for our next shoot.


Nice shoot fellas

 

WOW!! that's freaking incredible. I had the biggest grin looking through those pictures. I was thinking man that car looks badass and then I remembered it was mine and it made me smile even bigger

Nice work Wilson. Definitely some of the best pictures I've EVER seen of cars. really cool lighting effects and reflections

Looks like I'm going to be busy making a new Sig pic
vvvvvv mine is now very lame

 

Wow now those are some pictures! I wish I knew how to edit and take pictures like that. Very nice work and 2 nice Fits!

 

Nice Pix
Good Job!

 

Thanks Perrenoud Fit!!

Wish there was more fits around the area.. i'm sure we will get a meetup soon!

You are welcome Ryan. Glad you love them!! Now if we have more members that are free, we can do some moving pictures

Thanks Bthasht! Love your screenname!! LOL!!

 

How did you get this look. Cant stop looking AMAZING.

 

KK, gotta give it up ma'man...those are some fantastic pix... Both of yur guyz rydes are glistening.
Dayum, you show'd me how much I really suck at photography

 

Great pics above for sure. Here is what i did today hope you guys can see it. Painted the calipers black for a clean look. Was thinking about painting the lug nuts black as well, but not sure how it would look. Any one can photo shop the lug nuts for me in black?? Thanks

 

Hey Vinny how did you get the lights to "star" out like that in your sig pic or is that just random. I like that effect

 

Use higher Aperture. If you don't know what that means it means to make your camera eye smaller thus using a 22f-stop instead of a low 3.5 - 5f-stop.

like this : http://photographylesson.org/wp-cont...04/apertur.jpg

btw don't worry about the lighting.

 

I guess you would first have to have a camera with that option huh? LOL you mean my phone doesn't have that? I'll check on my point n shoot and see if it has any options like that.

Thanks for the info B

 

haah yeah DSLR camera's have that feature. For the point and shoot... I'm not sure if they have the feature, but some probably do. Most point and shoot's I've tried don't have that feature.

good luck!!

 

I'm truly humbled by the comments here! What a great community that FF is! Wish we were all closer so we can have an awesome meet! Would be off the hook!!

I used HDR techniques to shoot many exposures of the same frame. Put them through a program for HDR processing and played with settings to get "the look" . I think it is an awesome shoot!

Thanks vinnymac - Next time I'm in HI, I'll make sure we drop by and we can do a shoot! Probably not this summer, but I'll try to see if the misses wants to go there. Stuff about to get HOT in HI soon!

Thanks 08fithappy! Nice capilers, hard to tell they are there, but that's the idea.

Like others said, it's an aperture thing. You can do it the same effect in Photoshop Elements if you wanna explore that route or get a "star" filter on your lens.

 

@airwicc, thanx for explaining the aperture feature, I couldn't have done it better..

I hope you make it a point to notify me when you decide to visit Paradise and if there is anything that I can do to help persuade your Ms's to come here please let me know..
Nice photography ma'man...keep up the good wurk

 

Well took my winglets off the car last night and put them and test pipe up for sale. Also trued the jdm plate relocator thing, but behind my plate in stock location looks bad with scratches and the hole. So plate stays as is usdm freshness.

 

Go to Hawaii i was there for seven weeks in november thourgh december and i was in shorts the hole time. Great place never thought it would look that nice. The only bad thing was no placese on the beach to have fun at like here in FL. But than again i understand how some people would mess that up. Also there is alot of problems i was breifed on with locals trying to start fights with us. But i think thats a military problem more than any thing. But i have to say i had no problems execpt for one security guard. Funny he told me he was going to kick my A** . I smiled and whispered in his ear that i know youre full of sh** that there is to many people around here and that you would not want all of them to see you swing at me than me put you on your ass. Funny i look small but im a Martial Arts Instructor Trainer in the USMC. I don't think i'm a hard as* far from it but i know i can defend myself and others around me for sure. But most people don't know i'm a Marine let alone a martial arts instructor trainer. I'm one of the most laid back guys out there for sure. I think thats why i had no problems from the locals. I saw alot of other dumb hard headed guys have tons of problems. My next duty station i'm going to try and get is HI for sure. Oh HI is also pricey every thing is alot more there than here in FL.

 

08fithappy,
Nice to know your considering Hawaii as your next station. Komo mai! The beaches are pristine here for just what you said, here the beaches are a part of the 'Aina so great care and attention are taken to make sure that they will be beautiful for the next generations, visitors and so on. As for locals starting fights with military personnel, that's just an old cliche dating back for decades. There are always a few bad apples in any basket.
Spreading aloha is a way of life here, everyone's considered family, I hope you experienced that while here in Hawaii nei...

 

ordered my weopon r intake manifold and am still trying to convince my wife to paint my car. im trying to get her to do it before she is super prego and is too tired to do it. if i dont get it done this month then ill have to wait till after dec. wish me luck guys.
