i think 2 and 3 are awesome! 1 still looks good but you might be able to make it a bit better. rep for nice pics man

 

thanks...yeah ill work on it...what do you think it needs?

 

Um. Not sure if he knows what he's talking about. They're not awesome. w/b is very bad, but those lights are hard to shoot under. The wheels should have been straight. Was your focus on the car or what? You shouldn't have cut it off in the 2nd pic. 3rd isn't terrible but its still fairly grainy. What are you shooting with?

 

Unfortunately I have to agree with this. If you're shooting under street lights, you need to adjust your white balance to get rid of that yellow.

#3 is a good shot. Sharp and clean. The reflection is great. Nothing wrong with that one that I can see.

 

1. Set the white balance on your camera read the manual it will tell you how.

2. Photo 1, the car is not the center of focus and your eye is drawn to the light making it a poor composition, photo 2 is a lot better in terms of composition, there is something in photography and art called the rule of thirds (google it) some cameras come with a grid that helps with it, read the manual.

3. Photo 3 shows great composition not much to say there...

4. read the camera manual, seriously, it will help!

 

ok thanks for the suggestions...i was just messing around with a new 50mm lens. it was a pain to get clean shots...no AF

 

What type of camera???

 

How to Set White Balance

"Forget about shooting under orange street lights: they'll always look orange because they are orange. White balance only adjusts far enough to make lights that look white to us look white in photos."


is this what you are talking about...you can't really fix it.

 

im shooting right now with a nikon d60 with a 50mm f/1.8
