09.12.09 Hard Light

[VisualEchos]

Went out today to do some hard-light shots. Some standard Andrew shots, some not so standard. Massive color/contrast was the theme of the day, and I forced it even further with the processing. Hope you all like.

I'm rooting for #3 and #5. A breath of fresh air! You should play around outside of your comfort zone more often, it pays off.

Where is the hard light? In all the shots the car is in soft light

close your windows

+1 The whole soft focus halo around the car HDR thing is getting old, all your shots look the same now. You've mastered it, now time to move on to something else

I suppose I should have titled it "harsh light". Most of my photo's are taken at sunset, so this light was pretty hard compared to what I normally use.

I used to, but found I prefer them open on the Exige.

I shoot what I like to see, so if you look at my work you're going to see a lot of similar images.

Thanks for your responses.
