  • Picked up my GXL V6 yesterday

    And I have a grin on me as big as a Cheshire Cat

    44kms on the clock from the dealer, 128kms on it now after getting home and then heading out for a quick photoshoot.





    Completely stock at the moment, but I have plans.

              Would you care sharing how to take such pic? What lens, how you deal with contrast, flash (?) etc?

              Those are publication grade photos !

                Yeah sure do. Planning on adding a bar, snorkel, compressor and maybe a winch (depending on finance and suspension I guess). Later a lift, but need to scrape up more funds first.

                No flash on these, both shot in the late afternoon. Canon 5DMkII + 17-40L + Polariser. Take a couple of exposure readings for the light and dark parts, then work out a compromise exposure that gets you the look you're after.

                          The build-up progresses. Picked it up from ARB this arvo.

                          I had a bad experience with diesel on my old Triton 4wd ute and thus was somewhat turned off by the idea of another diesel.

                          Would have made the last run, but was busy last weekend. Looking forward to a run in the not too distant future though, now that I have a bit more equipment on board.

                          Some very ordinary and not very exciting pics from this yesterday morning (before) and this evening (after) below:
