Just went through your whole Mods posts. Luving what you have done with the Lib V with such quality mods, especially with the toasting they get from being fugly looking. Top effort looks awesome. Congrats.

Thanks for the great feedback Peter and Tom - always good to know the time+effort gone into research, selection (and 'investment') in choice of mods was worth it! Always satisfied when I grab a sneak peek back at the car after I've parked it (anywhere, anytime) :mrgreen:

Leo helped me adjust the new headlights tonight, they were pointed a bit too low to begin with, and definitely cast more light ahead on the road now. And lovin the new 5000k lens colour (thanks Leo!)

Thanks for the photos Jack..... your work is outstanding!

You've just about convinced me to go on a photography course and upgrade to a proper camera... although would take me ages to get to your standard :)

I love how these photos combine clean edges (main image) and softer/blurred lines (fore and background)



Simon H - when you back in Sydney? I just had random idea for a all-Gen Wagon shoot?

You must tell me your secrets Jack! Did you do much editing with LR or PS?

my secret? i have a camera and lens thats better than i deserve... :lol:

i use Photoshop Bridge for 99% of the editing. only use full CS6 for crop, touch-ups, watermark.

i don't edit my photos heavily as I'm still not the best at it. might be a good thing, that way i don't over edit my photos like i see so often with automotive photography.

Simon, I'm coming back some time soon for a weekend, but I won't be back living in Sydney till November 15 :) That's plenty of time for me to install my carbon bits and new wheels!

Jack, I prefer the bottom photo out of the two, the sky in the top one just doesn't look right...

Hahaha.. I guess i just need to practice a bit more with my camera and some editing on PS.

Simon, it looks great! I reckon that's how the car should of came off the production line. Mint!! Maybe some spacers to push the wheels out a little for slightly aggressive look? :D

Also those lights look more and more enticing.. Arrghh!!!..
