J Riftin Posted June 26, 2011 Report Share Posted June 26, 2011 How was the photoshoot meet? Saw a few pics on facebook, but they looked like they were taken by a little schoolgirl with a crappy disposable camera..... SNAP! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sloth Posted June 26, 2011 Report Share Posted June 26, 2011 Hahaha, your actually more correct than you think. Earlier in the day I had been taking high speed photos of paintball and changed some of the settings on the camera, but I forgot to change them back, so most of the photos of the cars came out really grainy. (For those in the know I had the ISO set to 1250, which is WAY too high for doing those sort of photos and long exposures). The lighting was also a little more disappointing than the last time I visited that carpark (this time there was only a couple of really bright fluros that created heaps of shadows, whereas last time there was lots of lights all over the place). After everyone else left KENut and I moved our cars around to get the lighting a little better and tried some longer exposure shots. I think they worked a lot better for the whole car photos. I think the plan for next time will be to find somewhere with slightly better lighting. Organise a couple of long exposure shots showing off the whole cars, then try to photo shop them up car magazine style (similar to the photo of KENuts twinky). Here are a couple of the ones I've played around with so far. I should really ad a little "rollaclub" logo in the corner, lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sloth Posted June 26, 2011 Report Share Posted June 26, 2011 The other thing is the poles are now painted pink (I believe some people would call it Salmon...). Last time they were blue and grey. I didn't really send much time fixing up this photo, but you can see that the poles are a different colour and all the other lights are on.

KENut Posted June 27, 2011 Report Share Posted June 27, 2011 Thanks to YLD 10S, Tommo, Sloth and myself lol for coming along. Was a success I think, as Sloth says next time a location with good lighting would be nice. And we will get more clubs involved, run it a bit earlier etc. Heres a couple of my shots, turned out ok I guess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
