Car images - Volvo P1800

[Anders Karlsson]

Most image posts seems to be the family, the cat or nature/landscape, sor some reason. As I'm a big car-fan, I thought I might change that. I've been shooting cars for many years, but not to any great extent, just a shot here and there. I'd like to shoot more cars though. Here is one reasonably recent one, a Volvo 1800S. Great looks, not so great engine. The shoot is taken at one of the most cool gasstations we have here in Stockholm (yes, there is such a thing as a cool gasstation).

Are there ant websites with a lot of Car images? This shot was taken with my E-10. Handheld at 1/40.

Beautiful!! I have always loved this car. Excellent exposure and the overhead lights make this shiny toy delicious!

Nice shot! My father used to have a P1800 when I was growing up. Unfortunately by the time I was born, his P1800 was in a non-running condition. I can remember sitting in the driver seat in the garage, going through the gears and acting like I was driving it... That shot definitely brings back some memories!

I'm not sure what type of car images you're looking for, but you can try my site...

The photography section has some shots of cars taken by me with my E-20, and the rest of my site has media shots of new Chrysler vehicles... I hesitate to even post it here, because I don't believe I'm even near the same caliber of photographer that is usually found on this forum. Either way, give it a shot and let me know what you think.

Nice shot Karlsson. On my monitor, it looks like the white balance was a bit off. I played with the curves a little in Photoshop and I'm attaching the results. What do you think?

Bilar som dessa görs inte längre, trist eller hur?

Nice shot anyway! The whitebalance is a bit of (just to give some constructive comments), but as someone already did, it's fairly easy to fix in photoshop. Got a friend that owns one of those P1800 in perfect condition. I'll just grab a copy to show him.

Yes, you are very right, the white-balance was off a bit. On the other hand, the car was green. In my version, the white-balance looks a fair bit off, but the car colour is probably more correct I think. As an image in general, your version is nicer though...
