So basically, I stuck my camera on a tripod and took a picture with my hood open, and one with my hood closed. In the future, I will find a better background than my driveway and play with post-processing some more, but for the moment this is my first attempt and I like the concept. It was a lot of fun.
So here we go, hopefully this will inspire a new creative movement on GV and we can share our results and improve upon one another!
I think I need a background with more contrast, maybe make the hood a bit more transparent, and play with lighting. That should definitely make the engine pop.
I've shown you mine, now show me yours
