Check out this post on "how to take pics of your car"...https://mustangforums.com/m_731944/tm.htm, according to this you should never park on the grass for pics...

 

I would agree that some of that is correct while other parts are just a matter of opinion or lack of experience. Downward shots for example can come out very well, light is a matter of what you are trying to get out the shot, and I would never recommend only one lens for photographing cars I use a wide angle at times, a fish eye, and a medium telephoto depending on what I am trying to capture. I also tend to use a different filters from time to time, mainly a CP filter but occasionaly others. Another aspect is angles and shooting speeds, both make drastic effects on the image. I would also say do not force the flash all the time, many parts on cars are reflective and forcing the flash can cause a flare in the image, this may be an effect you want or it may not so not always.

Also as to parking on grass, it is done alot, park on grass, dirt, pavement it all depends on the photo composition. Parking on grass can make the car look slightly lower to the ground, also a nice composition is to hose down a section of pavement lightly to get a nice sheet of water on it.

There are so many ways, tips, tricks, ideas and such.

 

Well it's the age old problem you ask 5 guys the same question and you 5 differnt answers, there really is no right or wrong way to do it just how it turns out in the end that matters.

I quit smoking on Tuesday after 22 years so I maybe alittle uptite and I spose I could have left some of my additional comments out but I stand by my opinion regardless.
My first post was not ment in disrespect or to be rude to the brother but seemed to be taken that way and the picture that is your Sig is not the one I was commenting on it was the other one which is no longer linked I see, the one you picked is a far better choice.
It's just to bad everyone had to make this thread about my opinion rather then your pictures.

P.S. 06blueovalblueGT it's the Mall of America in ST. Paul sorry no cows for you to befriend around here.
