Cool shot i took of my 2010

RADARGUY......your first photo was really good. I really would like to know a road that allows 1+ minute of no traffic, too cool.

As far as constructive criticism, how about using a wide angle lens, maybe a fisheye 15mm 2.8 and have the angle towards the bottom of your car, aiming upwards, so you can get a good close up shot of the car and still get the mountains and stars with the car being the main subject.........

cheers.

 

beautiful photo - congratulations, giorgio from italy
owner of 2 Prius.

 

Excellent pictures! It's a shame that there wasn't a road heading towards the mountains, to where you could get a picture of the car driving towards it without all the fencing and poles. Maybe you can find such a road somewhere . Makes me wish I knew someone with your photography skills that would travel with me!

 

I love my 5D, but mainly use it for portrait photography (matches really well with the 135mm). Interesting photos you have. With the unusual ambient exposure and internal lights of the Prius: it looks like a composited 3D render. I feel more like asking if it was done in Maya Keep it up, certainly a unique style (reminds me a little of the faux HDR photography I see).

 

Awesome shot! The colors in the scene really work with the color of your car.

 

Haha sweet shot. Left you a comment on Flickr!

 

I'm looking to buy a D-SLR, either a Canon EOS 60D or a Nikon D7000. The camera will replace my old Canon SD550 and a really old Panasonic DV camcorder. Which do you guys recommend?

 

Very nice!

 

I can only afford either a good DSLR or a good HD camcorder but not both. The 7D is way out of my price range. Actually I can only afford the Rebel T2i kit if I buy locally but I'm stretching it to the 60D if I buy online. I know about the superiority of compact flash over SD with its faster read/write and higher theoratical capacity, 128PB vs 2TB. SanDisk class 10 SDHC can do 30mb/s plus I can use it in my other devices. The 60D supports SDXC and D7000 supports dual SDXC slots. 50D is out b/c it cant take video. The 60D has superior video spec than D7000, faster frame rate and higher bitrate but the D7000 has auto focus while shooting video where as the 60D does not. The Nikon D7000 is also out b/c I can't find any online stores selling for less than $1500 and in stock. For that price I'd rather buy a Canon 7D.
The best price I've found for 60D w/18-135 lens is $1098 Best Price Electronics
The best price I've found for 60D w/18-135 lens and kit is $1265 at Best Price Electronics
The best price I've found for 7D w/18-55 lens and kit is $1485 Best Price Electronics
The prices change everyday so I don't know what the price will be tomorrow. I know these are cheap lens but that's all I can afford right now. I'm sure it'll take better pictures than my point and shoot Canon.

 

Was there much color correction in your moonlight pictures?

 

I've found many sites offering similar pricing. I called them before I went to work today. They all said that they're out of stock even though their site said available, shipping in 1-2 days. After reading many forums I've came to the conclusion that these sites sell gray market products with hidden charges like 7% insurance fees, or processing fees. Now my next step is to find a good cashback site that has high yield cashback to authorized Canon dealers. I wish Bing cashback is still alive. I bought a Toshiba from Tigerdirect.com with 15% cashback, no sales tax and free shipping.

 

Here are 2 cool shots I recently took of my own Prius! It's not a 2010 however, so please don't hurt its feelings (its very sensitive!!).
