What did you use to edit them? Photomatix?

The contrast could be better - that's my 2 cents.

What camera did you get?

yeah i'm usin photomatix. still learning it tho...pretty new to me. i've had it about a year or so, but dont use it much.

as for the camera, i picked up a used Canon rebel XT. nothin too fancy, but a great starter camera as i'm still learning and theres no sense in spending 800-1000 on a camera and have no clue how to use it haha.

i took a photo class last year at school, so that helped me out a little tho.

You took those pictures in RAW mode?

Canon XT will do the work especially with the right lenses. I think you can pretty much take amazing pictures with the right skills, eyes, and a nice lens will bring everything together.

BTW - how many shots did you take for each image?

first off I gotta say sexy car man!
I like the pics, i think the lighting is awesome on these pics.

I like the ones in front of the garage door looking straight on, and the ones in front of the tall brick wall... hell I like them all, BUT i have always heard you should avoid ones like the one in front of the garage door where there are guy wires behind your fender. and also the one with the loading dock behind the car its just kind of kind of distracting sometimes having objects in the background that intersect with the lines of the car....
