[BStarr119]

Yep, I love to take pictures of my car she looks gorgeous, especially at dusk ....and those LED's! are awesome!!!

Curious as to where you got the LED lights for your license plate? They look like a warmer white than your typical aftermarket. I like them haha

Follow my official thread, it's all there

At least you parked with the driver's door facing south so it's not all iced up

 

[dareckibmw]

Not so shiny anymore!

I got bored today and I though I'd test out those Blizzack's winter tires with ESC remotely disabled (thanks David) ... let the fun begin!

After ~5 min. of drifting, my car isn't so shiny anymore, but who cares!

See all you southerners? Snow IS good for something.

The fastest color, beyond the 'shadow' of a doubt..
Or in other words... Tout simplement magnifique....

That trippy hippy dippy filter looks really cool on snow. Even your garage door looks better!

And it's an interesting way to enhance edge contrast to find ill-fitting body panels .... JK

 

[dareckibmw]

LOL....wife said the same thing about the door

It was a plugin for photoshop called RedField Fractalius. I like it.

Dareck, your car looks great, and your photography skills are on point! I have a D7100 too, love it!

Picking up my 2014 Rspec on Thursday, and already have most of the rebadging stuff on the way, the dealer is tinting my windows/de-badging the car, and I am getting ready to look at some LEDS!

Time to start buttering the wife up, have you found that Red Lobster is pretty effective?

Don't suppose I can get a cheat sheet of all the LED part numbers I need for where?

 

[dareckibmw]

In my case sushi bar at Mariano's worked and still working for small stuff
Not sure about Red Lobster....I might give it a go, since I want a new camera and couple of new lenses and that is pretty expensive

I'm thinking D810 with 17-35mm f/2.8 and 70-200mm f/2.8 lenses ...s I can start shooting flying objects, anything in motion.

As for LED'S - you'll have to go thru my official thread to find them all, sorry.

Those were taken last week on Mississippi river in Iowa with D7100 and Nikon 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6 zoom lens

 

[stogge]

Sushi, I will keep that in mind!

Those are awesome pictures man! I have a 70-200mm Tamron 2.8 that I bought in the fall and haven't even had a chance to open it yet, two kids under two are a HANDFUL!

Sounds good, I want to replace everything with LED, because coming out of my Infiniti Q50s, I don't think that thing had a halogen bulb in the whole car!

Thanks for providing all of the great info that you do!

 

[dareckibmw]

Sharing is caring, my friend

Don't forget to post some pictures in your own thread once you get the car!

remember:

 

[dareckibmw]

Oh you little dirty @$$ !!!

No worries honey....I'll clean you up soon!

Selling mu Nikon gear, any takers?



Nikon D7100 DSLR Camera

http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/927106-REG/nikon_d7100_dslr_camera_body.html

Nikon AF-S DX NIKKOR 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR II Lens

http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/644744-USA/Nikon_2192_AF_S_DX_NIKKOR_18_200mm.html
I’m the original owner.
I’ve bought all this last year in July, so everything is in mint condition, no scratches, etc.
It comes with original boxes, papers, lens hood and cover, lens filters, battery charger, Ruggard Commando 36 DSLR Shoulder Bag, pretty much everything you can see in the pictures.
The shutter count on this camera is 7752 as of 03-06-2015
There is absolutely nothing wrong with either the camera or lens….selling it because I am switching to a Nikon D810 “Full Frame” gear and no longer need this. (Wife won’t let me keep both cameras)
The retail price I paid in July 2014 was $1693.90
You can have it for $1200.00.

 

[dareckibmw]

An old gear is sold.

Testing out new camera....Nikon D810 and Nikon 24-70mm f/2.8 that lens friggin' sharp! I love it!

 

[dareckibmw]

My car and my friend's Aventador. We tried some "rolling shots" and I think I did good?

 

[Xtalgic]

Gorgeous shots man. You should apply a motion blur to the background and keep the foreground in focus, take the shot to a whole other level.

 

[dareckibmw]

Thanks
I could do that in Photoshop....but it would be cheating
