Rig Photos

[hemisport15]

Hey guys, I don't know about you but one of my favorite types of car photos are taken on what they call "rigs". For those of you who don't know what a rig shot looks like, here is an example.

and how they are taken...

So today I thought it would be cool to try it in photomode today.

Mine aren't exactly perfect as you can see the obvious differences between the real shots and mine. But I've seen a lot of the photos you guys have been taking and I don't doubt that some of you will be able to recreate it perfectly.👍

Something like this?

ehh, it needs to be a little closer. most rig shots appear to a fish eye effect. here's another real life example to show what i mean.

Is this any good..?

I guess this sort of a "rig" photo.
(Not sure, the zoom angle might be a little too much on the same plane as the car to be just right...)

I really wanted to enter this into the recent "drifting" themed Photomode competition, but thought it was a little too "avant garde" and "anti-drifting".

However, I think it's pretty darn captivating...

Maybe...

Most of my wide angle close-ups have the camera too close to the ground I think.
