crazyarab 6 Report post Posted June 29, 2008 (edited) My good mate Victor has a talent, one that is extremely useful for someone like me who has just purchased his dream car and can't get enough of it... He takes WICKED photos of cars! So, when he told me he was coming Christchurch for the weekend, I just could not wait! Gave Matt (M3TRBO) the heads up and organized a duo photo shoot. However, good old "Murphy's Law" struck and the only day Victor was free to take photos... Christchurch skies had to open up the flood gates and it pissed down with rain. I was far too determined to let it stop us (thankfully they boys were also still keen), so we set out and drove till we found a shaded industrial area, grabbed an umbrella and got stuck in. Yes, we all froze our nuts off but I think considering the circumstances the photos turned out amazing. Hope you guys like them Pic1: Me wresting the umbrella while Matt stays warm laughing at me >.< Edited June 29, 2008 by crazyarab Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Creaver 55 Report post Posted June 29, 2008 Very nice shoot. When looking at your car...it looks photoshopped? I know it isn't but it looks like it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yuen 16 Report post Posted June 29, 2008 Very nice. I think the rain was a good thing, nice reflections in some of the pictures. You should have gone hunting for a huge puddle What sort of exhaust does M3TRBO have? LOL @ first pic. Happened to me last week too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Braeden320 0 Report post Posted June 29, 2008 Very Cool, Both looking good. I like the E36 M3 beacause its exterior differences from a normal e36 are so subtle, To the untrained eye most wouldn't no it has a beast of an engine under its bonnet. Good to see your enjoying your m3 CrazyArab Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

crazyarab 6 Report post Posted June 29, 2008 (edited) Very nice shoot. When looking at your car...it looks photoshopped? I know it isn't but it looks like it. You would be right. I did re-size, crop and tweak the levels every so slightly (as the lighting on the day was crap). However, 99% of the look is due to Victor's kick ass camera (worth over $3K) and the fact that he knows how to use it !

Warehouse in the industrial area near Wigram roundabout (the huge one at the end of Riccarton road). Good stuff guys, a couple of nice M3’s there. What colour is your M3 Crazyarab? Oxford Green (spelt "Oxfordgruen Green" or something along those lines, I will find out exactly next time I pop the hood). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
