Thread: Lowered WRX at Bethlehem Steel

  1. 03-31-2012 05:32 PM #1
    Hey guys, meet up with a friend of mine and did a shoot of his wrx just wanted to share a few of the pictures from the shoot with you all. Although im not new to photography i've started to focus on editing a little more. Im going to school for new media so the surreal photo effect was on purpose for the first one.. though the composition of it is meh :/ (everything is centered) but i worked with the shots i got in the time i had. Also for the first one i really wanted to focus on both the car and the steel stacks.. not sure if i accomplished both but constructive criticism is very welcome here!

    check it out on flickr : http://www.flickr.com/photos/seantie...to/7030509917/






    if you are in NEPA or somewhere NJ shot together that would be awesome!

    The first shot is good, but I feel it would be stronger if the factory wasn't on top of the car, placing them on opposing thirds may have been more pleasing to the eye.

    Nice stuff.

    Damn, I was hoping that this was the Bethlehem steel plant that's been closed down for years in NY. I loved shooting there back in college.

    The white on the car looks over exposed.

    This I also agree with. But still a great shot.

    I am loving the last one, might have to take this idea and run with it.

    Hit me up if you're going to shoot down there again, I'll gladly give ya a second set of hands...

    Somewhat unrelated / related, if you're in the Valley come out to this on the 25th http://homebase610.com/features/save...0-on-may-25th/ - bring your camera too, always use more shots. Find more info at http://facebook.com/homebase610 - and look for the 10th anniversary event.

    You can contact me via http://hireme.mikepanic.com, I'm not on Vortex a whole lot anymore so I don't always get PM notifications that fast.

    Not bad, the location is amazing. Just a few things:

    1. Try to bring the white down a bit and give the gravel some more contrast to match the scene. Bring out the shadows on the structure behind the car. It looks weird exposed behind the fence and then underexposted right above the fence. Also there's a tad too much empty space up top that doesnt add to the photo. I do love the colors here though.

    2. Bring out the background and sky here similar to how #1 looks. Again give the gravel more contrast to match the car. Composition looks good!

    3. Love the leading lines. Although I would suggest to keep the colors similar in a set, the b/w looks great. Bring out the sky and building on the top half of the photo and it will look $$$$$.


    Overall great job, the editing is looking great and that Subaru is
