I Photoged a Mazda Speed 6

Well there's a first for everything. I love capturing people's expressions....so you can only imagine a little of my inner turmoil at being asked to photograph....a car. OF COURSE I wanted to get behind my camera and shoot something new, OF COURSE I wanted to help a friend out, OF COURSE I liked the challenge....however, how do you photograph a car?! I mean really they have no expression!! So that's where you have to "give" them expression....aka the backdrop, lighting, and angle become pretty important when doing this I found. Some of the pictures were just HORRIBLE! At least in my opinion, although Eric found much delight in almost all the photographs. At least he was happy :-)

So here are some of my photos!

Mazda Speed 6....his new powdercoated wheelz



I feel the need, the need for speed



I just thought this was a cool pic....and you can see his silhouette in the reflection off the bumper



I need a fast car....candy-coated red.....
