Thank you! I did a shoot at an old salvage yard one Sunday morning. I had wanted to do this for years, fearing the ole building will soon be gone. Spent about 2 hours in 90 degree heat to get it right. Gravel drives and clean Wide Treds dont mix.... LOL

The depth of field is great did you use auto settings or did you force the F-stop?


BTW - How long did it take you to pry all of the gravel from the tread?

I feel your pain Steve. Eddie M. And I spent a lot of time on the deck picking those rascals out from the tread. Then the photographer would say, &quot;let's move your car over here for another angle.&quot; Aarrrrggggghhhh! It's a small price to pay for a good shot though.

I started to shoot in Auto to find a good starting point and then adjusted &quot;F&quot; up and down while shooting multiples at the same location. I them picked and edited from there.

Ugh...gravel,tire dressing...sweat, repeat!
