The best photos you've ever taken of your car...

[xbrules]

I thought I'd start a thread for people to showcase their best photos of their cars.


Is there a shot you are particularly proud of?

One that looks sensational?

Where you think you've caught your car's best angle?

In front of something awesome?

Post away!!!

here's a couple of my faves to get the ball rolling... all done with an ordinary digital camera set to auto mode...

can't wait to see what others come up with!!

[pezzonovante88]

I like three and four. Three is especially unique.

[dvonk]

nice! how long did you have to wait for the train to come by, or was it parked?

[xbrules]

Last weekend was the Fleurieu Steamfest of South Australia's south coast. The train runs on a 10 mile stretch between 2 towns. I spent most of the day chasing it back and fourth taking shots as it went past each way. the last shot had 2 locomotives together making it a bit more special...

what you can't see in the last shot is my video camera on the louvre capturing the train speeding past... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5cTPoGASEew

I saw this picture before and it is a great one! If you don't mind I used it in one of my blogpost.

[MML]

I was out for a drive the other evening when all of a sudden a couple of local photographers pulled up alongside and asked to photograph the car. Here are some of the results!
They're hoping to get a proper planned shoot done sometime soon.

Something about this photo keeps making my mind think this is a picture of a Sunstar model. I can't put my finger on what it is though!

[Spittybug]

It's the fact that it was taken by a professional that knew how to adjust his f.stop properly for portrait photography! A lost art with camera phones I'm afraid.

Looks more like a tilt shift, or PhotoShopped the blurred background

[skynet]

I also think it's ps, but i like it a lot anyways. May also print it out.

[Spittybug]

You may indeed be right...the curb edge at the front is too crisp given that it isn't all in the same focal plane. Maybe the background was deliberately blurred; I don't think it's a composite though.

That's the first thing that came to my mind, too.

[FLUXING]

It's probably a miniature effect that many point & shoot cameras do today. It makes the photos look exactly like they were shot of a small model.

Wow Wolff, I have to say, that first photo you posted there is one of the better ones I've ever seen of our cars. Nice!!

[vwdmc16]

Thanks. The photographer really saw the potential in the location which was a lumpy construction site near downtown Sacramento, also it took alot of tries to get the fog machine to put out the right amount. I do wish I had attached my rear driver side quarter panel-door molding before that pic. its the biggest flaw you can see with the car, i suppose I could Photoshop it out

This is typical for Belgium!!
You spend millions of euro's to develop a big suspension bridge to connect the city of Hasselt with Eindhoven in Holland. When this 4 lane bridge is ready the environmentalists kick in and they actually pull it of that the highway will not be made becasue it runs close to a wildlife refuge. so a lonly bridge with no function at all. Now 20 years later the bridge is still there costing tons of money to maintain it. It is now only used for pedestrians and cyslists. Always tought it would be a cool picture with the delorean on it. So I ignored all warning signs, and had o move quickly to get this shot.
Is was used on the Dutch delorean magazine cover last issue. So at least the bridge was useful to me this moment.

[john 05141]

Bonjour Domi,

I write articles for this magazine from time to time, but just by coincidence I have this one digitally. It is sent to all the members of the Delorean club of Holland. So it is not available like that, unfortunately

Salutations,

So, I was driving back from town today and passing the Volunteer Fire dept. and saw their NO Parking signs.
Nobody was around so, I figured it wouldn't hurt to park for a couple of minutes. ;) :D

Good eye, I'm seeing it too now - the door is reflecting different to the rear quarter, front fender, and hood?! I'm not seeing it in other photos though, or when I just popped in the garage to suss it out, so might have to suss it out further under full sunlight sometime.

Things have come a long way since those pictures!... I've now got all the suspension parts powdercoated black and all the bare metal parts re-plated in yellow zinc.

I suspect so. The house is in a golf course community and the front lawn looked like a green.

It's in a gated community and the guard was shocked that a DeLorean was coming through the gates, surprising given the quality of cars he sees every day.

I had an idea for a photo after seeing my car backed against the sun setting at a cruise night earlier this summer. Tonight I got the chance to try it out.

It turned out pretty well for someone not really knowing how to use most of the settings on my camera. The last sunset photo I took was over two years ago at about the time Robert (REB) passed away. He certainly had a terrific artistic talent, far better than anything I might come up with. I hope there is a DeLorean in a sunset for him wherever he is resting.

Here's the photo:

[Freaky Beetle]

Here are a few pictures of 2812 I have taken over the years:

[Rich]

Not the best photo I've ever taken of our car, only the best photo I've taken of it in front of a gargantuan Mini Countryman after the DeLorean was first deflated by a giant arrow.

No, these two cars aren't photoshopped. One ugly parking meter did get removed for our viewing enjoyment.

http://dmctalk.org/attachment.php?attachmentid=21435&d=1376973575

I didn't know what I'd shot until I began to crop the image later and saw just how large a "Mini" can be nowadays. Outweighs a D by 100lb, is 15 in. taller but still 6 in. shorter.

The relative size effect is probably emphasized by the lighting thanks to a nearby palm tree.

Location: San Francisco waterfront with the SF-Oakland Bay Bridge in the background. And a very bright, striking piece of public art behind the D.

That is not the classic mini.
That is the new SUV like version called COUNTRYMAN. Ugly boxy thing! I prefer the classic old mini.

[Domi]

That's a very cool picture!

[JohnZ]

I remember when the first new mini coopers started to be on the road, it was 2001 and I was 12... I clearly recall that I was in LOVE with that car! They were pretty rare as well, and they were a kind of a status-symbol car I guess. Back then I used to think: "One day that will be my real car!", just because I thought that the "Delorean" was a fake sci-fi car that was non existent.

I was definitely wrong.

For a quick photo just put something heavy (or a hooker, previous thread) in the trunk with a full tank of gas. That will give it a nice stance with minimal effort.

A Moon (or Venus) on the right would be appreciated!

Geez, now you guys are getting picky! ;) The moon is actually directly to the left of the car. That is where the white-ish reflection on the rear quarter is coming from.

My front is REALLY high. I always carry a full trunk of junk around, and that was with a little over a half tank. I'll have to fill it and load the front with sandbags. Or cut the springs ;)

Who's good at photoshop? Maybe they could put factory wheels back on the car like magic. Maybe even lower it a bit for all those comments. Then you'd have a poster-worthy sample, albeit doctored a bit.

It is a cool pic though.

At the moment yeah, for sure! There used to be two of them, but they came on Earth by Delorean so now the planet is empty!

Some random guy appeared out of nowhere and was taking pictures of the car too last night. I was glad I went over and said hello to him as he was taking the shots from further back and it gave me a few new angles to try. He also knew a lot more than I do on camera settings and the buttons on my camera that I don't know how to use. Kinda fun to experiment with this sort of thing and learn as you go. Might not hurt if I read the manual at some point too :)

One of my friends is a professional photographer. He was in the passenger seat of a car that I was about to pass but I was at my exit. I remember seeing this camera stick out of a window and thought nothing of it until I got a text a few minutes later. You have to give it to him, for holding a camera out of a window at arms length while doing 70mph with no visualization, he did quite well!

Nice, always loved the wide stripes.

Chris, let your friend Darren know his rear door latch doesn't seem to be "double clicked." Give it a little more oomph, or figure out what is misaligned/sticky causing it not to close all the way. You won't hurt anything if you put some more force into closing the doors... do it carefully of course until you know it's not jamming on something. My doors did the exact same thing until someone pointed it out to me (thanks Dave.)

Not tonight, but since it's only about 5 minutes from the house I hit the slots. Table games aren't really my thing...because I'm not that much of a risk taker...although flying 700 miles away to drive back a DeLorean I only saw on the internet that's only been driven 1500 miles in the last 6 years is quite a gamble!

Blackjack and poker are my poison of choice. FYI - Video poker has substantially better odds than your general run-of-the-mill slots.

That's awesome about the car - congrats on the new acquisition! You've had so many of them apart in the past, that even if a problem did crop up, it probably wouldn't have been anything that you couldn't have handled :smile:

So, what's the VIN on this one?

I had the DeLorean out for a drive a week ago and got few photos at the park right before sunset. My phone can do pretty cool panoramic shots so I tried out a few of those.
