Ruddles Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 Thought I'd share some more of my photography and editing work I'm trying to build up and get better. This is my friend's 1.4 Mini £3000 engine and £1500 gearbox (that screams like a race car gearbox when you put your foot down). If anyone has come across exactly what makes the gearbox scream purposely, please let me know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bartman Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 yeah its probably a jack knight straight cut box at that price super strong and very noisy you got any under bonnet shots its a nice looking mini nice blending round the arches Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woody Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 Very nice. I have one of these little beauties myself, but unfortunatley...mine is completely stripped and in loads off boxes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stew Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 I REALLY want a proper mini. I'd prefer it if it was a bit more stock looking. Love the paint, love the wheels, love the little touches but I'm not keen on the kit personally. Nice pics but I think the jazzy border is unnecessary and too close to the subject. I like the third one best personally. Oh and my opinion is coming from someone that can't take a picture so feel free to completely ignore it!

UNABASHED Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 nice pics but drop the border, it makes me feel to claustrophobic! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruddles Posted September 28, 2010 Author Share Posted September 28, 2010 straight cut gear teeth much stronger Cheers Husky! ...Currently pricing up a few things! yeah its probably a jack knight straight cut box at that price super strong and very noisy you got any under bonnet shots its a nice looking mini nice blending round the arches I haven't any engine bay shots currently, though we're going for a drive again soon. I'll get some then, plus a video If I can! Thanks for your input on the photographs guys, you don't need to be a photographer to know what looks good. The criticism does help if I'm to get better! So apart from the borders which I can always get rid of and not use in future they're good pictures! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Husky Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 personally i absolutley abhor pictures taken on a slant like its need for speed fair enough on the front cover of a magazine but when you want to actually look at the car you want it to be straight.

Ruddles Posted October 4, 2010 Author Share Posted October 4, 2010 Was asked to do a few pics for another friend's new car, think they came out alright! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lottee Posted October 7, 2010 Share Posted October 7, 2010 Third pic, top left, shadow on the bonnet. Could do with editing out. Always super aware of the lighting when I take photos! Although does look like you got a cracking day with good strong light!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruddles Posted October 7, 2010 Author Share Posted October 7, 2010 Yeah the third pic isn't the best, we had to get as many as possible as rain clouds started approaching it was a lovely day, but didn't last. So what you are seeing (3rd pic) was a bit rushed in taking it, i.e. front right light is out of focus. Thanks for the comment though! I'll start picking up on shadows a bit more!
