Some night picture whoreage :D

Post by lewis26 »

Washed the car today, and spent a few hours on the wheels. polished them with a rust removing polish, and then a wheel wax sealant. they look amazing with a true mirror finish. :banana:

So i went out and took some night pics with the SLR. These are completely unedited because i didnt feel like photoshopping tonight, but I think some of them are pretty cool, especially when i switched over to the fisheye lens.

Yess sir, its a fisheye lens. It has an extremely wide field of view, around 180 degrees. Most of those fisheye pics, i was just inches away from the car, even though it looks much farther. Its a really cool effect, and makes my pictures a little less ordinary. :)

Well done.

I checked the summary of the first pic, its a Canon EOS Rebel XT, 1 second exp. time and shutter speed, ISO 100.

Well done, esp with no tripod, I envy your steady hand.

Thanks for all the comments guys. I still have some work to do on him to make him really sparkle, but hes coming along.

The camera is a Rebel XT, and the lenses were a canon 18-55, and a tokina fisheye lens.
All pics were taken at a local parking garage, WITH a tripod.

Its a full frame fisheye, made for cameras with a cropped sensor. The other ones are called circular fisheyes.

Beautiful car and awesome pics, what kind of polish and wheel wax did you use? What is a good beginner camera that i can get at best buy or the like?
