Again, great shots.

Thanks - I had just washed the car the day before. Here in the mid-Atlantic you have to take advantage of mild weather in the winter. I'm pretty fanatical about keeping my cars clean, always hand washed with sheepskin mit and hand dryed with microfiber cotton towels.

tctic - The E91 wasn't home that day.

That will have to be a shoot for another time - though I would love to see the Arctic color with properly balanced studio lights. That will give me a project to work on for another time!

txusa03 · 01-30-2006, 08:15 AM

nice photos, how often do you wash your car because it looks squeaky clean.

LEDZEP · 01-30-2006, 08:23 AM

In the warm months she gets washed about every week. In the winter it is as often as the weather allows. We have a touchless wash nearby for when the weather is bad and it needs a cleaning.

Squeaky clean (while I know what you mean and is a nice compliment) is not the desire. The squeak would be caused by friction, and that would mean there is not enough wax on the paint!

lux.sh · 01-30-2006, 08:25 AM

ledzep, is there anyway I can have actual files(bigger size) in a zip file?
I know its going to be huge. I really want them all.

I'll pay you.

edit: oh, and mind telling us how you control the light condition in that environment? were you carrying a light source around to take the photos in a dark garage? truly amazing.

edit2: read the whole thread and realized what you've done.

LEDZEP · 01-30-2006, 08:40 AM

lux - I'd be happy to do that. Guess I'll just have to figure out how to upload zip files here. And you're right, the original files are quite large.

BMW0 · 01-30-2006, 01:28 PM

Almighty LedZep Alpine White is Molto Bello! Full of admiration I can't stop bowing.

StewtheBassman · 01-30-2006, 02:43 PM

Zep is back.....

....without a vengeance!!!!!!!!!!

I just cleaned up all the barf off my desk..........my car is so SKANKY from all the bad weather and the kid barf in my back seat!!!!

GREAT shots Zep, you do your best work when you're bored!!!!!

HRC · 01-30-2006, 02:51 PM

Very nice shots as always! E90's (not just AW) RULE!!

Not only your car looking damn sexy! God Dayum! What did you use to clean your car!?? ^^ I'm Zaino freak myself, but that! is impressive!

LEDZEP · 01-30-2006, 05:41 PM

Stew - kid barf. Yuk. You're doing God's work man.

creaminz - Just a good hand wash and towel dry (frequently). I typically use Meguire's car wash soap, rinse with a good flow of water, then towel her off.

ledzep, is there anyway you can find out how big the zip file would be?

Sorry for asking such things. I really want to have your pics.
Im thinking of making a calender out of it and put it in my room.
Of course, that is only upon your permission.
Those pictures look so professional and awesome.

diesel007 · 01-30-2006, 06:50 PM

LEDZEP, Friggen beautiful photos.

Nikki · 01-30-2006, 06:58 PM

nice shoot..and yes, do the arctic!

r3amir · 01-30-2006, 10:29 PM

Great Pictures

StewtheBassman · 01-31-2006, 11:10 AM

Now Zep, if I bring you Brooke, can you do the same detailed study of her body parts?

LEDZEP · 01-31-2006, 11:46 AM

Absoutely. Women are my specialty. I'm not much of a car photographer, most of my studio work was fashion/style work with female models. My non studio work was sports and rock concerts, and the occasional U.S. President and King of all media.

Somebody had to do it.

StewtheBassman · 01-31-2006, 01:22 PM

Like you said, God's work

DesiInCT · 01-31-2006, 02:31 PM

VERY Nice pictures, we never knew LEDZEP was a pro ...... wishing you more rainy Sundays. :-) JK

LEDZEP · 01-31-2006, 05:51 PM

Thanks. Yeah, now I have to do the Arctic E91.

daver · 01-31-2006, 09:27 PM

Nice to see some nice Alpine White photos... I wasn't sure about the E90 in that color until now. You see... I've got this thing about Alpine White

Sure... no E90 in the picture... but soon perhaps... soon.
