I’ve been shooting people for quite some time, been doing photoshop for even longer, but I recently (Feb of last year) got into shooting cars.

I’ve found your blog helpful in many ways. It’s answered quite a few questions of mine, as well as given me a few ideas. I’ve recently acquired some flashes and haven’t quite gained the confidence to utilize them on my car yet, but after seeing some of your simple placements, when the weather clears up, I’m going to go at it full force.

There’s a lot of differences between shooting different types of subject matter as I’m sure you know. Post production techniques are also different. So it’s also good to see you share those as well.

When I find someone that has achieved a level of quality, and accolades (congrats on the features) and cares for their craft enough to post how-to’s and share knowlege with others that would use it properly, I have to extend a warm thank you.

Some of the things in your blog will save me months or years of experimentation.. I truly appreciate your time and expertise.

In the near future, I’ll be shooting more cars and as I get better know that it was from some of the tools I gained from your site.

Thanks again,
RashardAnthony

Wow Chad, You posted a few pics of your Blazer on a forum and I was perplexed as to how you got it looking like you were actually driving. I kept experimenting with photoshop and radial/motion blur but I could never figure out. Now I see you WERE ACTUALLY driving and it all makes sense.

Very impressive

to me honest matt the car is only costing at a walking pace then i use a slow shutter speed to give the illusion the car is moving at 60+ MPH =)

Very impressive

I think the picture came out great!

Interesting setup. I like the post processing step by step you gave. Must take awhile to do.

yeah i had about an hour and half in the post process of that shot. it is time consuming and you have to be pretty decent with the clone stamp tool but the end result it worth it for sure.
