I don't know ANYTHING about photography, but I do know how to point the camera and click the button. A month, or so, ago I took a few photos of my boyfriend's car. I thought they turned out well, but thinking back to the fact that I know nothing about photography, I don't technically know what "well" is, really. I thought about following Caylei's talent and just turning them all sepia, but then I remembered that people on here actually know something about photography. I would love to know what you guys think, I don't know if there's a specific way for photographing a car, so I guess just in general? What would you do different? Any tips in general for photo taking? Thanks!

Well, there's the photos. I ended up focusing more on the building than the actual car because I thought it was interesting, especially the font they used lol. Then I completely lost interest and started taking photos of my boyfriend, that's why there's only like 3 photos. I didn't do any editing, other than messing with the contrast and brightness, because it was raining at the time and the photos were super washed out. Because smart people take photos in the rain.

I have a few friends who are obsessed with their vehicles...I noticed a lot of shots from a ground level angling up at the front corner of the car. In those pictures I think you should make the car more of the focus. Cool old building though. A little more contrast might help, since that picture is all greys, whites, and blacks.
