That sure is talent (I'm not debating it) but I'd be irate if I were you. A photographer should know his audience and subject. Is that HDR and with over the top editing? That sort of photography is best for new cars, flamboyant paint schemes, and shiny wheels - think your typical car care polish with a sexy blonde on the roof of a seemingly dripping wet dark colored car. What you need to execute the sale of the car is a classy eye for simple tricks of accentuating natural light, styling ques of the era, shallow depth of field, bookah, and grain and texture (noise). Think less is more.

Mike Burroughs is one of my favorite photographers online right now. His work is atypical (see below).Dan

Disclaimer - I do not know Mike nor have I ever communicated with him.

Dan, it's all good. Yes, I did pay for the work, but at a very discounted rate. It is different, and for sure it maximizes the car. I am happy with the work, and he is supposed to be sending me a cd of the raw footage and shots, including the ones he did not use.

The link you provided was also to a talented photographer. I really like the old chevy truck on the hill shot.

I know that he is wroking on the shots of my 2012 Boss 302 from the track, so I can compaire the old vs. new shots......
