Snap shot | White on orange

White EVO X, orange TE37’s… what’s not to like? It’s a trend that’s been going for a while, brightly coloured wheels. i believe it started with the Takate green wheels but then morphed in to the multicolour extravaganza you see nowadays. Not a bad thing if you ask me, diversity is the name of the game.
Oh, almost forgot… look at that sky! Great shot Paddy!

Snap shot | Mmmmm… Evo

Rockets says he wants one… and I’ll say the same!

I must say I’m really liking this car and the crossprocessing done by Rockets. I’m not so sure about the modifications done to this EVO IX RS, but I spy the following:
> carbon bumperlip
> carbon bonnetvent
> wingless
And probably much more!

Great car!

Is the sun setting on this blog?

…

Nope! I wrote in one of the last blogs that I would be updating more often. Sadly, work and private life interfered. But to make it up to you, I’ll be adding some posts this evening. So stay tuned!

Now, back to this Evo! Black on white with a stunning sunset in the background. What more do you need? (other than a nice track or winding road to take this beauty to the limit!)

This is what the photographer has to say:

Just been having a lot of fun lately playing with different methods of processing. It’s great to not have to worry about clients and to just go mad for a while.

The shot was lit with a 580EX II and an SB800.

I created the ‘Dave Hill’ look in Lightroom by whacking up the fill light, clarity, contrast, vibrance and pulling back the saturation. I then brought the original and the ‘Hill’ one into photoshop and carefully brushed the original car onto the Dave Hill layer.

Hope you like…

Well… all I can say is, Paddy it looks great!

Still one of the greatest Time Attack monsters according to my book; great looks, great speeds and great presence. Just take a look for yourself:

ARC EVO X by Dino Dalle Carbonare

Just found these shots of the ARC EVO X on J-Style, the weblog of photographer Dino Dalle Carbonare. The car itself isn’t to my tastes, mostly because of the vinylpack. But when I saw the engine bay picture is just got greedy. How much titanium can you fit on an EVO? Well, that much!

Enjoy!

Great Evo X by Harman Automotive

There’s just something about black Supra’s that gets me every time. They just make me greedy!

Time Attack GC8’s always look so good. Pure agression!
