Default 1st quick shots of my ride

UPDATE ON PAGE 3 wheels!!!

So happy I finnaly have her. I put the order in May and just recived it last Tuesday. Waiting on springs to come in and tires. I've had my wheels and other parts sitting in my basement for the past month. Buy parts before you have the car FTW! ha ha

Well enough chating here are the pics










Very quick and half assed but I'll set up a real shoot when more parts are on. I can't wail till she in lowered and I throw on the 19s

Thanks I got a lot of practice on my old impreza


I still miss her but the IS is a nice change. So many little things I didn't know about the car.

I love the pics....but I just wanted to say that if you edited your photos in photoshop......turn down the saturation just a lil bit. other than that...looks good.

it looks like you applied a color balance....lower your blues.

Thanks for the tips I just started shooting with my SLR in spring.

They are all HDR shots and I should have spent more time in lightroom tweaking them.
