Thanks for the positive comments everyone.
Here is one more photo along with a few behind-the-scene/candid pics....
What some people do at shoots when they're bored.

We did not. He dyno'ed at 260 whp and our C55's average 290-300hp so it's really a waste of gas at this point. We might after the ECU upgrade though. His first ECU upgrade put him at 321 whp but it was running too lean so out it went.
One more pic before bed. Also, for those who requested high resolution pics: CLICK HERE

Beautiful pics.. good settings, good cars and good color tones.
And you're good in Photoshop too. I'm still learning to master Radial and Motion Blur command like your pics below.

Well I was just looking at the similarities between the two. Even the visible portion of the right muffler looks the same on both pictures. The position of front and rear wheels in relation to the fenders, the position of the front center cap in relation to the front fender. In fact I overlaid the first picture on top of the second one and made it transparent, and both of them were taken from the very exact same angle, the car on both pictures had exactly the same distance from the camera. Very interesting coinsidence I would say.

Believe me, it was a coincidence. Motion blur is a cheesy way to do the motion pics and anyone with some Photoshop experience can tell especially with the wheels/brakes. If you notice the other pics up on my site, you can see through the wheel with the calipers stationary. Care to guess what happens when radial blur is used? That's right the caliper goes in a circular motion with the wheel. I have no reason to lie about it. You'll also notice in the background that there are electrical conduit on the wall in the motion pic. The conduit is directly in front of the windshield in the still so they are not the exact same frame.

LOL! I see you're still having doubts about it. That's okay though because most people do think it's Photoshop. All I'll say is that it's not and leave the rest as a mystery. Feel free to experiment though.
You'll find that motion blur will not achieve what you see in Eric's photos.
