Just some fun with a placard, flashlight — and one click of the shutter. Promise.

Comparing vehicles is always a lot of fun, and these three were just similar enough to make it interesting. This was for a comparo that will appear in World of Wheels Magazine next month.

Just a little bit of sand, eh?
A Jeep engineer having some fun in a wash during an off-road excursion. Location? Moab, Utah. This photo was used for a World of Wheels magazine cover in August, 2007.
*Update, July 31: Uploaded the original to Flickr, so felt I should update this post, too.

Nothing too special, just spent a little time getting to know the latest Jag and my new camera. It’s available on my Flickr as a desktop-sized download, too!

I took this shot somewhere slightly northeast of the city. I spotted this pristine green field, flat, and full of colour. Besides doing static stuff in front of old buildings, the Bentley is very hard to photograph. It’s a sense that whatever shot it’s in, it’ll be the dominating factor.
Especially in robin’s egg blue with a butterscotch sundae interior.

This is a shot I took of Doug Andrews, owner of a racing tours company. My friend Dan and I traveled down to Talladega, Alabama to watch the Nascar race. Saturday night, however, was spent at the nearby short (dirt) track.
It was also the first outing for my trusty vintage rangefinder camera.

From Wikipedia: Lomography emphasizes casual, snapshot photography. Characteristics such as over-saturated colors, off-kilter exposure, blurring, “happy accidents,” and alternative film processing are often considered part of the “Lomographic Technique.”
So what better car to photograph using my new Holga 135 than the new and apparently ugly Impreza WRX sedan? My shots and analysis after the jump.

A simple track shot I took while in California. How was the car? Quick, but really needs a sixth cog.
