Rusty + Mike
Lens: Da 18-55 Camera: Pentax K2000 Photo Location: Nashville, Tn 

[CENTER]Heres a few I took when visiting and riding with some friends to a car show In nashville. The cars name is Rusty...and is amazing, but Ill just leave it at that. Last one is another friends car and I hate that I cut the rear of the car off. XD Just wanted to get some CC on these, as I liked them the best out of my set.

Wow great stuff, don't like the top-chop that much though,

anyway, I especially like the first photo. Good sense of speed and the special interior of the car. The only thing a bit distracting is the gearlever. But in a small area difficult to work around. Maybe ask him to keep his hand on there and try a wide angle shot from up front or with a close up of his hand on the lever?

The other pics are ok, but not too special compositionwise. The second picture looks slanted and could have focussed more on the lowness and camber of the car (respect!). The third one is unfortunately out of frame and a bit weird because of the wide angle. Use a wide angle lens more towards the edges of the car instead of the middle.

Thanks! Yeah on the first shot I cant really recreate that till the next time im there....theyre in Tn im in Ga. XD Im gonna throw up another rolling shot in place of that one, because that ones never seemed right to me, even though i like the darkness of it. XD

EDIT: Alright I changed two of the pics to other ones of my set, let me know what ya think.

Sweet! I have been seeing the car popping up now and then in Car forums here in the Netherlands. I like it alot, only not to keen on the topchop; although it is something different. Already checked out his account on Flickr. Some nice pics up there as well.

Always good to have friends like that . I got some friends in the aircooled vw scene, lowered beetles, rats, that kind of work. Still hoping for some sun this fall so we can get some nice shots in. Also still need to make my own rig.
