Why the correlation?! Photograpphy & Detailing

oh suuuuuuuuuuuure Ken, just send me a case of blue Riccardo and a case of yellow Riccardo as good faith :

 

Just for fun

 

Nice pic and I'll see what I can do about the clay.

 

Shot this in my last shop on my D60 with a clients 10-20.

 

haha too funny Ken. You know I was just yanking your chain right? 2 cases of Riccardo clay = the cost of this lens LOL.
Almost I wouldn't mind one of each just to say LOOK WHAT I GOT PEOPLE

 

ohhhhhhhh thats sexy, but the lights are killing the car (Dark color car and bright surrounding = utterly underexposed car), turn the light off next time and use the flash only!

 

Its a Camaro Mike. I wasn't trying to take a pic of the car! LOL I wanted to see how much of the shop I could get into the pic with that lens. Turns out it was everything except the tips of my shoes. My clay is the same as Riccardo and I do ship into the US. The store could be reopened by mid Feb.

 

D'oh! In that case you + the lens did a fantastic job!
You know if you want even wider, Sigma makes a 8-16mm f/4.5-5.6 lens, that's crazy wide!
And thank goodness your store will be re-open soon, I've been wanting to buy some stuff from you ever since my buddy Tuan told me about it lol.

 

Haha interesting you post this Hamza, I can only assume I am one of those individuals that strengthens your observations.

Photography is a huge hobby of mine, though I am no pro, and too broke to afford nice equipment. I think learning how to properly use a DSLR is very important for detailing (especially if you're doing write ups like I do). Using a lens which you can manually focus can make all the difference between capturing beautiful 50/50's or sharp images that show the defects, and well.. not.
Interestingly however, Automotive photography does not interest me. I mean I do em for my write ups but I just don't have any interest in photographing vehicles regardless if it's a BMW M5 or a Ferrari F40.

Does anyone here have FlickR? Here's mine: Flickr: aachow's Photostream I do love a wide variety of photography.

 

I do:

Here's my Flickr

 

Awesome pics! Post them here when you can. Lots of guys here love the scenery pics.

 

Fantastic! Added you as a contact!

Thanks! I'll post some of my favorites:














If any of you have pics, share em along with your FlickR!

 

Very nice pictures! What camera?

 

Just went through ALL your pics. You have some really cool pics bud. Would it be possible to get copies of 0894 ( I love the 2002's ) and 0079 ( Flying Lizard )?

 

All those pics are beauties, but the last one is MONEY!! Keep em coming! I take a bunch of pics of our local mountains here in BC as well. Beautiful country to live in.

 

Here are a few of our local mountains.

 

^ Ken those pictures are gorgeous I'd love to wake up, walk out my front door, and see those every morning. Here is a pic I took on my roadtrip from Virginia to Alaska this past summer with Will (WilljCo) I did a little editing but not much. I can post more here shortly from the whole trip.

I plan on making this trip again but going across the U.S. then up from Seattle so I'm going to have to stop in on my way Ken if you wouldn't mind.





Here is another one I took this fall in Virginia's wine country and happened to walk buy, you could just see the back peaking out...

 

Yeah you, Ken, Joey V, Bryan it seems I will have to get into the hobby just so I can say Canadian tradition.. Nice Flickr by the way, really like the scenery pictures already saved one to my background

 

Im always here, anytime you want to pop by.

 

Thanks for the love Ken; that's a heck of a long time looking through them.
I'll send you the full-size files when I get home and copy them from my external harddrive.
