Default Night Shots part 2

The last set of pictures came out like garbage. These arent that great either but theyre a little better. I think. What do you guys think?

1- turn the dang flash off.

2- delay the exposure

3- find an area with SOME light
continued from O.L.T.

4- get a tripod

5- learn how to use the "Tv" or "S" setting on your camera

6- take more care in composing (arranging) your picture

7- get cooler lights for the black SC, i recommend taking out the parking lights and getting 6000k HIDs and 3000k HIDs for the fogs (as you can see by my sig im biased )

8- pitch black is like the worst time to take pics...

9- dont shoot the car with its lights on ESP if you are going to stand right in front of it.. it will make everything else dark.. the exception is brake lights, cuz they are not too bright

10- if you are going to show off a particular part of a car like under the hood, it better be clean or at LEAST not be distractingly dirty

11- practice more and post later..(wayy later) lol

btw what camera you using?..
that might help us help you..

Would love to have a Supra also, if you can get that engine compartment as clean as the SC it would look much better.

Yea the pictures are way overexposed. Just get a tripod and use the manual setting on your camera. Set the exposure down really low and use a really long shutter speed. Dont use another car to try to light the picture.
