Hey Mate

thanks for the kind comments They kind of are, normally with DSLR HDR you'd take 3-5 seperate exposures then merge them in adobe cs4 or a HDR program, those shots were just taken on a $150 nikon p&s, but then put into adobe cs4 and then given the hdr type effect with a program called lucasart, then just auto adjust tone, contrast exposure, fiddle with the vibrance and shadow highlights and bingo

Very nice work mate, I've got the camera just need to find time to play with it(a bit like my ute)

What mods you got planned for the loo??

Thanks for the comments iloveholden & J_VZUTE. Appreciate them a lot!

They will all be getting printed to a decent size and framed.

I also should have mentioned that none of those photo's are my work. All the credit goes to Craig Bourke who took them for me - can't thank him enough.

I simply organised the shoot

Cheers.

Hey toast like those shots as well, that dude knows what he's doing

Hey thunderbird,

haha i know what you mean, i got into DSLR about 2 years ago but it's a long process learning all the ropes, i didnt know you could get that many options on a camera!

Yer she heads in before chrissy or early jan, for a mix pacemaker/magnaflow system, VCM OTR and a tune. Will probably keep it cosmetically stock as she's a 20th and i sorta feel like i should? haha then i again i dont know? :P

What you planning to do to yours? if not already done? any piccies?

P.S blown540, SNAP! thats all i can say :P

All mods listed in there i think apart from a 1 week old VCM-7 cam package
including a now maf-less tune

Have to agree with not changing the ute on the outside, maybe some better springs and some sexy tint....

What is this 'warranty' you speak of...??
I'd have to say if this was an everyday car I definitely would not have gone this cam, it's a tiny bit of a cow trying to crawl along in traffic with the manual but it's manners are still quite good. I'll get a vid up for you tomorrow nite but IMO if it's an everyday car I would not have gone the 7...
