These shots are the first time I’ve ever shot at night. It’s also the first time I’ve used photoshop for more than just watermarking. If you can see what I photoshopped, I’ll tell you if you’re right. I just like to see how well or poor I did in the work.

Car:

- 2005 Subaru Legacy GT

Camera:

- Canon EOS 7D

Lenses:

- EF 24-70mm f/2.8L
- EF 70-200mm f/2.8L
- EF-S 10-22mm f/3.5-4.5
- EF 50mm f/1.4

Settings were changed often, as I’m getting used to the camera and photography in general. If you’d like to know which settings I used for a specific pic, please ask. Thanks, and enjoy.

Very nice looking car, Cossey.  
I haven’t seen it since you first got it and it’s looking great.  
I don’t think I’ve seen anyone else in the area with that front bumper either… I like it.

5,7 do it for me love the light blur from the cars in the background … 4 looks a little out of focuse or mabye a small ammount of camera shake?? … i think 9,10,11 are overexposed a bit, i think if you saturated the colors in the windows of the buildings it would look a bit better but thats just the way i like pictures … i think the new camera and lenses suit you good! keep shooting! also #8 and possibly #1 i see you cleaned up the front bumper

you can make a new layer and put it on top and then just turn down the opacity … or make a watermark

Yep. My front bumper has two holes in it for the JDM plate. I currently suck with photoshop, so I used the droplet tool to copy the color, then paint brush to go over the area, and then the spot healing tool to try to blend it better.

Thanks for the compliments, guys. Like I said, my PS skills kinda suck, so I got a lot of practicing to do w/ it.

Try the clone/stamp tool. I find thats easier. Otherwise it looks good.
