I must admit I have been lax in both my shooting and posting recently, perhaps due to the fact my wife has now retired, and we are spending a LOT more time together doing various activities.

An afternoon out on the water
It was mid September late in the afternoon, a group of sailboats were out on the water enjoying the weather, there was a soft breeze blowing, pushing on the sails.

What is a FDL technique?
'focused diffused lighting.
It enables to focus ultra soft, directional light on a small area on the car to perfectly show the design of a car. And the best thing, no nasty reflections
Beautiful job, Thomas. The Boxer is a sublime piece ot automotive sculpture, and you really do it justice in this glamorous idealised portrayal.
Thank you so much!
Terrific! Nice work!
Thank you!
Very nice indeed, I would’ve preferred if the whole back end was lit up but that’s just me.
Yes taste is always different. I shoot a big number of exposures, after editing the final image is a surprise even for me. That makes the FDL Technique so cool.
I completely agree, specially when times feel like I didn’t really get what I want and vice versa
Well, I sure as heck can find nothing wrong with this one. Gorgeous shot (and a pretty nice vehicle too)
Thanx Bob! Awesome car it is! Hope to shoot it again soon.
Very nice work! Looks almost like a painting, the way the light highlights the car’s features
Thank you Ben!
