My Ride: Bmw 530d 2004
Hi.
Yesterday we went for a little roadtrip with my gf and Flat Eric of course. I usually grab my camera along, and again I shoot quite a bunch of pictures on different locations that we visited.
It is actually pretty challenging to take pictures of a black car against the white background
. A pic easily becomes too bright with burned background when the car is decent, or too black car when a background is ok. It almost always requires some playing with colors, contrast and highlights in a photoshop. I hope you like these anyway...
Eric politely offered to operate as a driver for us (See the video at the end
).

Thanks to weather, after our 200km trip the car is still clean as if it was just washed!
Enjoy!
