Image size is HUGE. Try 1024p as a practical posting size.

I assume you were trying to fill on the right side of the car and it looks like you didn't get enough light over there. That overhead light is so bright that it shortens your exposure too much, I suspect.

Love the flip-out articulating screen to get shots such as this.

I read years ago that for every 12in/1ft of rubber you burn, you lose 1,000 miles of tread wear.

Thanks for the feedback.

I resized the image, but not sure if I did it right?

I actually combined 6 different shots with different exposures to make this photo.
One of those 6 shots had the side of the car lit, but I accidentally left a light trail with my flashlight (you can see it on the door). I tried to clone it out, but I'm not skilled enough with that tool to pull it off. So I just underexposed it to make it less noticeable. I wish I would've caught that when I was shooting! I'll learn from my mistakes and won't let that happen next time

The size is right now and it looks way better than at 100%. As an internet size it works pretty good, but that right side of the car is loaded with noise. That particular camera may not be too great at high ISOs needed for this shot. This is really a tough shot, with extreme dynamic range, so it's hard to do it and not get noise in the dark area. I think that off-camera flash on the right side of the car would have been a better option.

Another option might have been a long exposure, with light painting and then turn that bright overhead light on for a very short while. You needed to take eight or ten different exposures, playing with ISO and your lights.

That's the way you learn. Keep it up.

Ah okay. I actually did use long exposure and light painted the car.
One of those long exposure shots was supposed to light up the side of the car, but that shot came with a streak on my door from my flashlight being pointed at the camera. I could bump the exposure of that shot to brighten up the side of the car, but then the streak becomes too noticeable?

I PM'ed you a different version of the picture. I need feedback from experienced photographers such as yourself, but also don't want to fill the thread with multiple pictures of my car lol.

eeeek - not good.

I pretty much stood on it for about 8 or 9 seconds and then rode it out....

That was probably a good 4k miles! Looks sweet though.

You are correct, did not read the entire thread title, just what was shown on the small cut off part, whoops (slapping myself)
