Well, it's not the first time I show you my car and I imagine you don't consider it too much, but I belive I've been able to better capture the reality. It's the photographers' quest and also the crazy owner's one. :)

This one isn't original, but here it is after a while from the previous:

I've drove around and managed these photos (it has no special effect other than plate hiding):

This is already one of my favorites. What do you think?

Now in the famous and beautiful "Sintra" and a bit later:

I realy hope you like as much as I, and that you give me your opinion. :)

By the way, Merry Christmas! :naughty
 
Incredible shine! When properly detailed, nothing looks better than a black car. By the way, what year is your Golf?
 
Very nice, clean golf. The interior is immaculate & very sharp!

It is fun to love your car, isn't it? :)
 
Nice - I like driving the Golf and it's variants. Nice ride and handling. Never driven the TDI but the 1.8 turbo is quite peppy.

You're looks great. How'd you prep it?

I really like the composition of this shot. I wanted to see what it looked like lighter so I lightened it with Photoshop a little. Y used the variations function and adjusteedon the shadows and midtones so as not to blow out the highlight detail on the gravel. What do you think?

Thank you! Late 2003 - one of the last ones. :)

It has now about 46k kms (sorry, don't know in miles).

I haven't driven any gas one. I can tell you it has at least 130hp and a torque of 310Nm... it's great!

Iis prep was wash and clay, polishing with 1Z polishes (the three ones with each orbital pad: cut, polish and finish), sealing with grojet2000, 2x natty's, 2x #16. A month or so latter it received a great Souverän coating. Again, another month and it received the second coating (refill, basicly).

And I'm on my way to improve it! eheh When I'm done, I'll keep you posted. :D

You are correct on the enhancing: great! Thanks. The photos were taken with convencional film. The kind I used it's a bit dense and my good film scanner isn't powerfull enough. If you could see the positives under a lens, you would love it!

I've taken another one with lights on and changed it to b&w. It's less compressed. I believe you will like it. :)
