Night Time Parking Garage Photoshoot

So it was like 1:30am in the morning and I was still awake (heck it's 3am and I'm just posting it now...) and I was driving home from the local cruising strip, Woodward Ave, KMart's old world headquarters and thought "Hey, cool spot to take some garage pictures!" So I went and took some pics. Here's the results:

Lookin good. Night shots are really cool when there is white light.


This one isn't all that great, but I still like it:

nice, the black rims along with the black strips give it a mean look.

A class act! Very nice job on the car. Obviously, the driving lights in the lower front bumper are not factory, but what about your low beam headlights; are they factory or not?

Re: Night Time Parking Garage Photoshoot

The lowbeam headlights are (PM me for the site name, don't want to promote non-sponsors) aftermarket headlights that replace the whole housing of the low beams to make it "plug'n'play" ready... you can pop the bulbs in and out, no siliconing the bulb into place, no replacing the whole housing when the bulb burns out. For the lowbeams it was about $80-$90 for the pair, they have a highbeam version too but with how bright my fogs are, I don't need highbeams at all really haha.


Thanks for all the compliments guys, I really appreciate it. It was my second photoshoot with ambient lighting and a tripod, and I'm really happy with how well the pictures came out. The highres versions are a little grainy ( http://www.meissenation.com/files/RedAlert%20001.jpg ) but when you shrink them down to a smaller size to post on the sites, they look great!

Re: Night Time Parking Garage Photoshoot

The pictures are a little too dark, if you've got a manual shutter release adjustment, let it stay open for a few seconds. It will let more light collect and you'll have a much brighter picture. Either that or you could photoshop it to lighten it up.
