Well, it's been a while, no real changes to my car, but Eric's boasting some new shoes - FINALLY!!! So we decided to go snap a few pics. These pics were taken at Sanderson Farms, Inc. new headquarters right here in Laurel. It's a gorgeous building, it's really just a huge effin' lodge. Awesome. (Who'da thought a guy from Laurel, MS would build a BILLION dollar company selling chicken???) Anyway, I didn't feel like sorting through deciding which pics to post, so I posted almost all of them. Hope you enjoy:

Yeah, I think I got carried away witht the angles on this shoot. A little trick I picked up from TJ but I'm still obviously NOT a pro and the the photog thing. I really need to get Photoshop or some program to tweak the pics, they would all look a lot better with some tweaking.

Thanks for all the compliments.

only joing mate, angleing the camara adds a lot of dramatic/arty effect to a picture and experimentation will result in some fantastic pictures, my only critique is if you have straight edges (such as buildings) try to angle the camera so that the edges are straight in line with the edge of the frame, that way the angle of the shot does not appear so obvious. (please take this as constructive critisism, not being a smart arse :thumb: ) take for example the eighth picture down, the three cars lined up from the side, if you had angled the camera the other way the building roof and four pillars would have been in line with the edge of the frame, this would give similar shot but not appear at such an angle. the one above it too (red car on its own) look at the tree, use that as a reference when shooting and angle that way. only time when using background references is not really applicable is close up shots, when you want to fill the frame with car (such as the red on if you had zoomed in a bit more). good thing about digital camaras is you can shoot with different angles/light and back to computer look, save or erase, its free to experiment. on a good point, the time of day you shot these pics is perfect!! heres a few of my example of angled shots, please fel free to tell me they are shite!!

good shootin,

mrlee

filling the frame....

using the building roof and line of cars as a straight reference...
