err any modern sportbike will be that much. he must have full discount, a new sportbike will easily cost over 3k depending on coverages with no discount.

Dennis, you either know someone at ICBC or you've been riding for like 60 years :D

hmm... doesn't look that interesting to me
i think would be better if you could have gotten more of the car at a different angle

yah i know what you mean, one thing i know i should do more but i never really realize it until i look at the pictures is that I'm always at a slight 'looking downwards' angle...

is that the wall in granville island?

no, a building on false creek near science world

ooohhh that wall! haha i took an abstract picture of that wall too but too lazy to find it :p it's somewhere on RS

I dont really like the composition of that shot, but it's focused and exposed beautifully.

cool what dont you like about it?

theres also this one, but i dont quite like it as much.

this is the first time in a long while that i've shot a car heh, im a little rusty :)

hey.

I suppose I'm totally out of line throwing out harsh criticism like I did without even being a decent enough photographer to shoot my own car.

The thing I think looks strange on the shot is how it's cropped on the left. I would be curious to see what it looks like with the whole right taillight.

don't worry that's not harsh.
and u don't need to be an artist to like and judge art. that's now
how it works.


u don't need to know the mechanics to realize something is
good looking :)

but the key word is "Humbleness"

i am almighty! :D

ummm not really a set-up shot, just saw some guys car parked there and thought hey, that might look nice.

came out really well for a spur of the moment type thing. however, i am a little concerned, it seems as though since you've run out of things at school you're turning to stalking random people and their cars haha.

it's ok, ppl usually don't get intimated by the little 50mm lens. :p

Nice exposure there with the car bonjour. Bonojour is probably being contracted by a P.I. Hehe. Pink car for a guy :S. Pink shirts are ok...cars?

woo weird, now that u mentioned it i see that little pink patch to the side of the car too... it's a red car though.

hmm weird. probably cuz it was in the shades and it just came out pink.

hm.

how do i fix that?:(

Pink car? I see red... That small patch is barely pink. What screen are you looking that picture from Mike?

35% discount and no collision..

Ta Da!

i feel stupid, it looks like a simple fix....

care to enlighten me on the process?

:p

this is how i woulda done it. New layer, choose a soft brush and brush over teh general area that you want to go from pink to red with a deeper red, hit control-g (I've forgotten what this function is called), and then change the layer properties to soft light. Then adjust the opacity accordingly. This is how i've done it before with photoshop 6, not sure if it still applies to cs2 as i haven't tried it yet

cool i'll give that a try

really need to work on my PS kills...
