Very Nice . The pics look professionally taken and the vette looks killer. How did you get the blur effect on the first picture?

Thanks guys!

My friend has a really nice camera, and is an aspiring photographer. We decided to take the pics after work, very random with little prep... I'm sure he could do some killer shots with the proper lighting and setup.

The blur effect was just camera settings, no photoshop or anything. I don't know much about all that but it was exposure/aperture settings maybe?

Thanks guys! I really appreciate the feedback!!! I'll definitely send this link to the photographer as I'm sure he'd love to hear it too. He's just getting into the business so this would be very motivational for him...

Quick Silver Z, I got the stripes from Mike (mike76002) from Corvette Stripes... They just say 'Corvette Z06' with the 'Z06' being styled like the badge. Mike did a great job with it!
