Not bad, but I have a feeling these can turn out a lot better, so many things to play with, cant wait to take some more...maybe this weekend if I have time...

thats a bad *** car!! 7's on pump!!

If I were to build a full drag car, it would be a TT viper or vette
I know a guy in Vegas with one. makes approx 1000hp on pump at low boost, 1250 on 100oct mid boost and 1600+ on C16 highboost!!
that car was nasty!! I believe it still is the fastest manual viper in the country

not too shabby... the hard thing about HDR is that you give up a lot of local contrast for the sake of global contrast... it's not easy to build a winning image on your first try.

what speeds were you shooting at? i think keeping the ISO as low as possible can hlep you reduce shadow noise and retain some of your local contrast.

I wish PSPX2 did HDR.... someday I'll have to adapt and become a photoshop guy.

Shot at 100 ISO, speeds from about 40 to 0.4", probably cause the aperture I was on...The location was really not the greatest either, I wish there was a bit more blue sky and a little less contrasting sunshine. There are other programs besides photoshop that do this as well. I just really wanted to see how easy the process was and the availability of modification, in which there is and the process is quite simple, hardest thing is taking some good shots and making sure the camera is still and there isnt a lot of movement in and between shots

I think his near ownership of said Supra will be the drag queen he really wants. 1000whp is easy to do on those I6 engines. So I am guessing he wants to sell his Evo and the money from that sale would put him close to where he wants to be in the Supra.

I call dips on the Red seats Vegas. Hit me up on a deal I can't refuse

Yeah, doing those shoots with clouds is obnoxious...a lot of movement.

Does your camera do auto-bracketing? or were you manually bracketing? on a decent day, you should only need a 3-4 stop bracket.

Shooting with a tiny aperture would definitely help the sharpness...

Mikie- I took Samantha for a walk in her stroller. Well, I was being white trash and brought a beer along with me as I walk through the neighborhood. Well, as it was sitting in the cup holder, I saw a friend from down the road and stopped to chat. He's about 40yrs old. Well after a short discussion I was about to part, and he goes..."is that one of them new energy drinks? I said "ummm...kinda." He replies with "Man, thats all anyone drinks these days. I even seen one that has alcohol it. Crazy huh..??"

...I was drinking a Budweiser Select in the slim line can. I love how it looks like an big enegy drink, even to a fellow beer drinker
