    Stupid Windscreen....

    So over the summer I was at a car show taking pictures primarily for myself, but also for to the car club owner. I took several (what I thought) were good shots. I tried to different spin on the pictures than a normal car show shoot. Well any way, I had this one picture that I liked just...

    Strobes for Automotive Photography

    Question.... What size strobe would you (any of you) recommend to do a shoot with a car either in a garage or in an urban area at night? Right now I have a Yongnuo 560 III, a make shift softbox with a heat lamp shade attached and a make shift light wand. I need more light, and a strobe seems...

    Race Track Photography

    Tonight I tried my hand at dirt track racing. I have a friend who has a friend who races pure stock cars on a dirt track. The owner of the track allowed me to shoot as long as it was not for profit so I would not interfere with already hired Professional. I also spoke with the hired...

    A new spin to Automotive photography... (Atleast to me)

    So I have been doing a lot of research about automotive photography and automotive photojournalism, and I have been working with a friend to set up another photo shoot with his car (first attempt was more of a learning shoot.) Through out all my research however I had failed to come across...

    Tough choices....

    So I have my D5200. I've got my nice little 18-55mm lens and my 35mm lens. I bought a nice backpack for it fit in. But I'm getting itchy. I am still learning and I am enjoying photography, but I want more. I want a new lens that can be used for anything from portraits to landscapes or...

    Automotive Photography

    I am looking to an Automotive shoot with some friends cars. I've read much about rigs, and shot styles and blah blah. For lenses I have been looking at a Tokina 11-16, a Nikon 35, or 50mm prime, and a 24-70mm f2.8 (Just to try out because they are crazy expensive for an amateur photographer...
