Default Took a few quick pics of the Indy, rate my picture taking skills/truck.

Well I decided to take some pics of my own this morning and figured I would post them up.

I know its dirty and I also know I need to get a new "M" to finish "RAM" on the grill.

The grill was broken so I decided to put "RAM" in the place where it was broken still don't know if I like it or not but it looks better than a big gaping hole.

So Rate my picture taking skills and the truck I would love some constructive criticism.

Oh and I lol'd in the last picture after I took it because my dads puny little truck.



So far I haven't done much to it, only put the letters on the grill. took all the gay *** stickers off that were on it before and I am in the middle of installing the new Posi.

Could you do a walkthrough with me on how to install the posi unit. I havent done one before, and its really pointless for me to race without one now.

Looks very clean. It looks naked without the OFFICIAL TRUCK blah blah on the side. I mean you dont get people reading you when they are next to you, and that means you cant yell at them and say stop reading me. lol. The black mirrors are nifty. I saw them and I gagged, but I took a second look and it looks pritty trick. I really like the way the bedilner looks with the mirrors.

man, im jealous, your paint doesnt peal

not bad...

#1 is well centered, you should be about 1 foot to the right however (I'm assuming your trying to get a corner shot)
#2 is good but you should be lower to the ground IMO
#3 is framed wrong... showing too much of the ground squishing the top of the frame with the truck.
#4 is off center
#5 is ok
#6 you need to get the gmc out of the pic...

some suggestions next time is to play with the depth of field some smaller F on the lens... f4 vs f22.. f4 will give you more highlights on the truck and blur the back ground, f22 will put everything in focus.

something similar to this pic... although Louies tail is clipped (hard to get a dog to sit still to recompose) if you look @ the background you'll see it's out of focus which highlights Lou... hope this helps...

Thanks for the tips on the pics, and indyramman I will PM you a walk through, I have been using my text book to help me out since I am only 18 and just started automotive school 6 months ago I will do the best I can.

May take me a day or two to write up the full thing but I will definitely get you a walk through its not as bad as everyone thinks.
