First pictures of my new GG IX...Semi proper shoot at least.

Well, I didnt exactly take my time on this one, the location nor the light were the greatest..But I did get a few shots i'm remotely satisfied with. Yes there is a crack in my windshield, a dent in the hood (thank you insurance claims), and yes it is dirty. And yes, the rear liscense plate is drilled into the rear bumper (apparently you dont get tickets from speed cameras this way), I'm trying to find a shop that will ship a JDM rear to an APO address without charging me an arm and a leg.

Camera info for anyone who cares: Canon 1D mk III, 85mm f/1.2L and 16-35 f/2.8L I underexposed about 1 stop in post, it was way too bright out. But it was an opportunity to shoot at least. Had to compress the images for the web, sorry 'bout the quality.

Enjoy

-Adam

The Ralliart sticker looks really weird on that side of the hood. I would switch it to the other...

Maybe a little higher f stop would help.. The pictures have a very small depth of field.

They look nice color wise

I actually shot the majority of them at f/4+.. I wasn't about to shoot wide open on a f/1.2 lens. Haha

Excellent idea. I play poker with our postmaster, he said it shouldn't be a problem to get a rear bumper shipped here.

Don't worry, it's coming off. I dont know why its on that side of the hood to begin with.
