I like the shots on the whole, though I think your choice of angles and your use of wide angle distortion is really odd sometimes.

I basically just used the sun as one of my lights. In the past I've always employed a 3 light setup consisting of 1 light for the front, and 2 for the side. This time I just took a few underexposed shots and looked at the pic to see where the car needed light, and used the flashes to light the darker areas. It gave the car a more dynamic look in the end.

Nice set, I like the reflection in the wheels on the rigshots wink.gif The wide angels with the strong distortion are not my favourites but all together nice shoot.

This is a nice set. That's a pretty good tip about shooting some under exposed images to find where the lighting needs to be. I like the concept of #19, but it looks to fake for me. The white balance of the sky and car are to far off.
