Great shots, especially the last one!

Car looks great. The last pic is the best.

Yea - it's a popular colour, but it really suits the car.

teaston · 08-31-2016, 02:52 AM

The last pic looks professional!!

MashinBenzin · 08-31-2016, 02:59 AM

Great shots, I'd be particularly proud of the last one too, it's a great shot.

Did you take a version of that last one with sidelights only as well or was it too dark? Might have looked good if dusky/twilight.

F20MAW73 · 08-31-2016, 03:25 AM

Fantastic photos. As others the last ones the best

pensioned off · 08-31-2016, 03:34 AM

Great detail to shots - now retired so getting into photography - whats the camera you used?

Yea - should have done that. Long way to go back and re-take it!

allachie9 · 08-31-2016, 04:03 AM

Great set of shots, and as others have said, I like the last one.

The Olympus EM-1 produces wonderfully crisp images, and at 1600 ISO too !

It was taken with an Olympus E-M1. It's a micro four thirds camera. Fantastic piece of kit but much ignored by the mass market where Canon and Nikon rule the roost. I'm a pretty keen photographer so if you want any further info, just PM me.

73henny · 08-31-2016, 04:24 AM

Nice pictures. How can you not remember where the last one was taken? It looks very distinctive.

ahmedb · 08-31-2016, 04:25 AM

The last pic looks like the tailgate is open but is it just the end of the bridge that's deceiving my eyes?

DThr33 · 08-31-2016, 04:45 AM

That last picture is amazing!

Jack_is_Back · 08-31-2016, 05:07 AM

Crikey even cars take selfies these days. Does your F31 have an Instagram account...?

Love the bridge shot BTW.

Sorry for mentioning it

Still, good excuse for a long drive in the future....

Kal101 · 08-31-2016, 06:07 AM

Fantastic car shots

But as holiday pics sadly lacking girls in bikinis.

Thanks for offer to PM - went for the Canon 600d a little while ago and had some good results.

Not sure why but didn't consider Olympus.

The photo media pushes Canon and Nikon and most beginners believe that "pros" use them so it's sort of a no brainer for most people when they start. I ran Canon gear for many years mind and it's very good - so I'm not complaining but I prefer the compactness and features of the Olympus gear and wouldn't want to go back.
