Feet wet... now drinking from the pond...

So I have been shooting vehicles for a bit, mainly my own, and want to get better. I personally can't find my own technique so I seem to play with the different ones I find.

I like the random shots that most post on this site, generally people working on their rides. I also like the style used in most of them.

Practicing getting some better shots from the different work that I do on vehicles as well as different shoots so critiques on the photos are welcome.

Be cruel if need be. I can take it.

Played in the rain today with some of the things that I have seen and learned from this site...

New shots aren't bad, although I seriously suggest taking a few steps back, having the truck take up the whole frame makes the photos hard to view, and actually takes a lot away from the photo. That industrial location looks (from what little I can see), really cool, and would be awesome to have more of it in there with the truck in frame.

Thanks for the advice.

Took it and made some re-attempts. The top image of the truck shows as much of the background as I had in the original shot with the dumpster cut. Helps the image out a bit more.

I cropped the last one to give the appearance of more background, or at least more background than truck. Not sure if it worked out to everyone's liking, but I think the crop turned out... enough to make it a sig. ~shrug~

Thanks for the advice. I appreciate you taking the time to critique. Hell, this site inspired me to search for that style of lighting shot (the garage)...
