iPhoto Fun + XM install (+ random Bugatti & Lotus pics)

TJ213 · 03-11-2007, 03:11 AM

I just decided to fool around with iPhoto, and there are the pics of my XM antenna install, iPhoto pics are shown in the order; origional, adjusted, and just wierd. Any ideas as to how I can make GGM look better? Like when it is in bright sunlight?

XM Install:

Bonus Bugatti:

And a random line of Lotuses:

Nice pictures

The bugatti is kind of ugly from the front, but just to think how fast it is makes it look sexy lol...

along with boosting contrast and color saturation like you did, try adding a very slight red tinge to the pictures that are overcast, it brings out some warmth that is usually lacking on overcast days

lol, I was wondering what happened to my thread (moved from intro & pics)

ethlar, thanks for the tip

btw, the Bugatti has some bad looking traits to it, but overall it is pretty good, especially angles from where you can see the engine, but the Lotus looks much better IMO, much cheaper too

for me, GG looks best when you shoot it in broad daylight, and then darken it a bit in photoshop.

Hey...to the XM antenna...do you really get decent reception there? I went throught the trouble of drilling my roof by the rear window and going all out factory-style

but if I could have done this...

when it was back next to the sub it was pretty bad, but there under the dash it works everwhere except under bridges, even works during mountain runs.

My dad's Accord has factory XM in it, and that thing works even under bridges, its like magic
