Pictures for calander 2009

Ettore Bugatti · Post by **Ettore Bugatti** » Sun Jun 29, 2008 2:26 pm

I offered coyote1980 to design the next calander.

Since summer is coming and everbody is taking their cars out for a drive, I thought to put a request here.

The idea is to use the whole picture as a background, therefore I need some different pictures then you normally would take;
The 480('s) isn't(aren't) covering the whole picture, so there is actually room for the data.

I attached an example of what the final result could be, but feel free to improvise.(I only need the pic

)

Happy shooting!

PS: I will be making the calander in October/November so dont panic, you have plenty of time.

Thanks for the pictures
It is only not exactly what Im looking for. (sorry)

Some examples:

I need a lot of room, so that needs a different composition.

hi!

did a photosession today and this came out:
http://naveza.mine.nu//volvofiles/2_7_08/
They are a little darker as i thought, but with some touch can be lightened: see the sampling on img_4953.jpg . Don't know why they are so dark, photos were taken with a semipro camera ?! But I hope one gets on to calendar

Just pick a best set and I'll send you the originals. Also i can retouch them for you.

regards!

How about this one? Worth a try I think? It's my 480ES Smoke Silver on a Dutch Volvo 480 meeting at airforce museum Soesterberg in The Neterlands..

Yes, do you have a high quality version of that one?

Reminds me of a sketch of a blue 480 with a F16.
