Two separate photos; I shot the exterior images seven months ago in a park.

For this series I used the 10-22mm f/3.5, 35mm f/1.4, and 70-200mm f/4L; all Canon, all with circular polarizers. I'm currently using a 40D body. And of course, a bit of post work in Photoshop on all images.

I will be releasing one of them as a 1024x768 wallpaper on my website soon enough. I know it's not big enough to fill a lot of monitors (I'm rocking 3600x1200, believe me), but it's the best I can offer for free online usage. So stay tuned for that one. Glad you enjoyed them so much, though!

awesome pics... but pretty weak that such great quality pics went to waste on a stock c300 only with no xenons and wack rims and no tint...

that would be sweet this quality of pics on a fully modded arctic white c350

Hahaha, I sort of agree with you there. But I try to make each series as best as it can possibly be, regardless of the car. I may be shooting a red C63 AMG in the future, and if I get the gig, then consider this series merely practice.

You might want to check out the CL550 Lorinser I shot two months ago; it's in its respective sub-forum. Now that wasn't a waste.

Yeah, but my camera can't record 720p HD video. I say go D90! And I'm totally biased towards Canon.
