Hi all. I haven't put up any photos as they have not been worthy. But I'm starting to understand how to use my Nikon D60. I got these snaps over the last fortnight and I thought I would share and hopefully learn from people on here how to improve.

Very nice car, yours??

I would have preferred to see the first two photos with the focus on the prancing stallion though. keep them coming!

Looks like you picked the right light for the photos. Love the silk effect on the whole car in the last one.

Not a bad effort, as aim54x mentioned, the prancing horse in focus in the first two would improve the photos drastically, try selecting a focus point that is on or near that next time, or use a slightly longer depth of field...

The third image is good, i like it :)

The last image, im not sure on, the angle is too drastic for me, and photos on grass is not something im a huge fan of at all, i prefer solid surfaces, conrete, bitumen etc....

If your going to use an angle, try something less dramatic....

Thanks for the advice guys. I got the last photo two weeks ago on a nice sunny day. My mate and I were waiting for the right day to do it, and when it came we went running to get the shots before there was no light. The first two were taken last sunday, It wasn't a nice day, but we thought we would give it another crack to see what we could come up with. I'll sift through the photos and add some more.
