Everyone is complementing the photography here. I've seen Chism post some much better stuff. All these are slightly overexposed (blown out highlights) and have a bit of soft focus. The red is saturated incorrectly. And the first few pics could use a lens hood to block that horribly hazy lens glare go away. Pic #6 seems to be the best in color saturation/replication, and sharpness.

Chris, your car looks good! See! I wanted to put the Efini emblems on my car, too! The infinity symbol looks like an "8" and its inside a triangle! But people were like, "no! the 8 wasn't made under the Efini brand in Japan!" Frick! It looks nice, I don't care what people say.
Nice job bro.

It isn't flaming to tell someone how to take better pictures. It's flaming to say "these pics suck" without any help. I said they were overexposed, had soft focus, and could use a lens hood. That my friend is called a-d-v-i-c-e. I never said the pictures were bad either, just said I have seen better from him when others are saying "these are th ebest pics ever". The photos are quite good and still above snapshot level, just a bit of helpful guidance is all.
As for the Destin thing earlier, it seriously pisses me off, it used to be my safehaven, now all that happens when you go down there is you get stuck in HWY98 traffic for hours to go 3 miles.
What Camera are you using Chrism? If I recall it is a Nikon D50 but it might have been someone else. It is a very capable camera and I strongly advise you to keep it off of auto at all times and use Av( this one more likely) or Tv with flash exposure compensation set to -1 (don't use flash though).
More photography help here. The guys on this forum are brilliant with cameras.
Also a photo of car photography to show that I am not criticizing without putting my own pics on the chopping block.
