Now that the article is finally live on S|W’s page I can share the rest of the photos. Dan and I both shot this car last month just south of Burlington Vermont at a spot I usually grab my sunset shots. We spent close to 2 hours shooting and it was 19\*F, very windy next to the lake, and had a snow squall that worked perfectly for the photos. The car is owned by an employee of Bag Riders, Kevin. All of the guys up there are great to deal with, a great bunch of guys, some of you may remember I shot their shop for StanceWorks a couple years ago. Many of the shots posted here were not used in the article, this will probably be the only forum you can find them - so think of it as a Shift exclusive.

Other than the car could do without the passenger in all, and even in the driver in some shots, I really don’t have a shot I don’t like. The car could be more be less “hellaflush” and look better IMHO. ---

Thanks guys. A little secret; shots 11 to 16 are straight from the camera except for the watermark and resize. ---

I’ve always loved photography, on a few photography forums. Both the post-processing and the ability to take a shot so crisp and detailed is quite a feat.

In the past I’m thankful that I have been able to purchase multiple lenses because I thought it would do what I want and give me the look I want. Right now I use 2 lenses primarily and I have a better understanding of composition, what I can save and do in PS, colors, etc. If you dont keep trying new things and pushing yourself out of a comfort zone you don’t gain any ground. Post processing in my eyes can be outrageous and make no-sense, sometimes you need to break reality a little but even then it still needs to hold some down to earth factors. Its really all art and art is subjective to the viewer. But editing even a car photo in general can take hours, even for a realistic edit. Like I said, its all how far you want to go. ---
