The Car Park: Photo Education

Photo classes on The Car Park have officially begun. Check out the first installment:

Took the M3 out for a quick photoshoot the other day to make the official Recession Vinyl posters. It was a super cold day in Chicago, so I tried to get what I needed out of the shots ASAP. Now since I haven't really done this yet on The Car Park, I figured it'd be a good time as any to give all you photogs out there the details behind the shots:

35mm, f/5, 1/100, ISO200

200mm, f/5, 1/50, ISO200

35mm, f/1.4, 1/400, ISO200

35mm, f/1.4, 1/200, ISO200

35mm, f/1.4, 1/640, ISO200

35mm, f/1.4, 1/500, ISO200

200mm, f/5, 1/50, ISO200

Hopefully from the handful of photos, you guys can see:

1.) the difference between shooting with a 35mm wide angle and a 200mm telephoto
2.) the different results you get from shooting wide open (e.g. f/1.4) vs. stopping down (e.g. f/5)
3.) how badly you want to rock the recession vinyl on your car

In the next chapter, we'll dive into how results change when you change up ISO, so stay tuned for some more TCP photo lessons. Study hard. Order vinyl.
