i know you folks think Hawaii-> beach shots, palm trees, sunsets, etc...i totally understand that...heck i would go to the beach to do photoshoot if i had more time.
again the reason why i did a bball photoshoot cuz for me...i went to play there before the photoshoot lol and bball is one of my favorite sports i enjoy.

Its okay, better luck next time
When we see photos, everyone expects top notch quality especially from the Hawaii members, since everyone is VIP
Dont let the comments get to you, their only peoples opinions afterall as long as your happy with it, thats all that matters.

Are you processing your RAW or JPG files? There are some differences in color between the two (at least to me on my monitor). Here's an example of two identical shots, one processed from the JPG and one processed from the RAW.
JPG
RAW
I find the RAW files give me more saturated colors than their JPG counterparts (I shoot RAW+JPG). Also, almost all digital SLR images require some post processing to look their best (I guess there's some built-in limitations because of the IR and AA filters on the sensors). Specifically, USM (Unsharp Mask in Photoshop) is probabaly the most important tool in getting the sharpest photos possible (use carefully, try not to over-sharpen into "crunchiness"). The above photos were hand-held with a slow shutter speed (1/25 f2.8) so they're a bit soft. Some good shots, and the one you reposted is definitely the best of the bunch. Keep it up!

i prefer shooting in RAW but i will be honest...if i am just gonna post pics and not print lol...i tend to use JPEG lol since the size and much more convienent.

Sorry if I didn't post too positive about the pics. But I do have to say that I love the color of your car and of course your camera gear. Trust me I myself am still learning. Your attitude is excellent to the critique. That's how everyone gets better! By the way, my camera occasionally takes pictures overexposed as well. Sometimes I set the exposure value to be a slight negative value to compensate.

Hah... what's wrong with HDR photography. By the way very nice equipment. I wish I could afford that But in my personal opinion, those pictures are a bit overexposed on most of them. If you look at some of the pictures, I see lots of bright sky and seems a bit washed out. HDR captures the various aspects of light and incorporates them in the image such that you capture everything. In his pictures, the sky is too bright. The car color came out ok. If you look at the paint in some of the images, I do see clouds in the sky. With the human eye you can see it, but you can't see it with the camera image because the camera (settings) didn't compensate for both. As for setting, there are too many distractions taking away from the car.
Flipside909 why don't you like HDR?
