Default night photoshoot of my new z06!

Hi guys,

been a while since I have posted much on this forum. I had a black '03 coupe which I sold, and just got into a TR '02 Z06 a few months ago. Finally got round one of mods done and did a nighttime photoshoot. Enjoy the pics!

"I've got a coupe as well, but I got my eye on a TR '02 Z06 also. Can't afford the asking price right now. I'll just have to find a new angle of making it mine. It definitely needs an owner who can appreciate the kind of machine it is." Congratulation on landing yours!

Very sharp looking Z06 you have - the euro tail lights really pop out on the TR car.

Thanks guys!

Camera is a nikon d40x. Nothing too special with the settings, forced ISO 100 so the shots all came out noise free. Added some vignetting in photoshop on some of them and the b&w I actually added some noise in in photoshop to make it look a little grittier.

A lot better than I expected to be honest. On this forum "nightshoot" equals bunch of noise and/or cars you can't see. Looks like you found a good nightshoot spot with some free light.

I think you over processed them to be honest. I lose the taillights into the paint because you pumped up the saturation so much. Looks like you're just pushin up sliders and not really lookin at the pic man. That's my strict critique. Overall though, they look pretty good.
