Would you call this depth?

Grabbed this shot when I got home the other night. The sun was tucked behind the other buildings but still light up the upper floors of my building.

Many people claim different meanings behind depth, but as I have always perceived it as a reflection that remains clear and sharp farther and farther away or a reflection that does not diminish over a given distance. In this case, the top of the building is about 45ft above my car.

So what do you think?

I think I've found another hobby that has ruined me.

About five years ago I found out what beer should taste like. Normal beer for me is now Dogfish Head, North Coast, Kwak, Unibroue, St. Bernardus. When I want something special I'll sip on an aged Samichlaus, Sinebrychoff Porter, Thomas Hardy's, etc. When I tell people what beer I like they kinda get a funny look on their face and say "Oh, you like dark beer?". I answer "Yes".

Now I find myself looking at cars and thinking.. gheesh. Poor thing. I'm sure someday soon someone will say,, "Look at the wax job on my car!!". I guess I'll just answer,"Yep"

GSRstilez,,,, all I can say is I hope to do be able get my Ram to look half that good. Great job...And Rock On!

Sean,

That's NOT depth!........lol

That's actually the visual definition of an ABYSS!

Thanks for clearing it all up for me! Super Job!



:)
 
That is "Depth of shine" rather than "Depth of color".

Some people don't like depth of shine. They make comments like it is too reflective and you don't see the [red] color rather you see the house and sky instead of the rich [red] color of the paint. Its all a matter of taste and in different lighting conditions looks will vary.

On a cloudy day or at night depth of shine rules IMO.

On a bright Sunny day sometimes depth of color looks better IMO.
 
Great Job Sean! I love TS and your work exemplifies how great it can be when used correctly. However I have some bad news. . . someone broke the bathroom mirror during a party at our house this past weekend and I am going to steal your hood rather than go buy a new mirror. Sorry in advance.
 
Great job...very very nice....
What kind of camera are you using..
I don't know if you do but are you usinga photograph program to clean up the jpg.
I always use "General Enhancement-{G.E.}" It's not a cheat touch up thing-to add more color or make things look like what they are not..
It's just aligns the colors and pixels better and gives a more 'sharp' picture..
(look around the headlights and look at the asphalt..you see that the original picture you loose some clarity-in General Enhancement-it does just that-enhances the photo..

Hope you don't mind me posting your picture Enhanced..but ut's too great a shot not to see the difference..I was surprised myself..


The first pic is yours as posted.

Well thanks for all the compliments and clarifications :D

Indy Ram: That's :lol ...Thanks :)

MS22: No Problem...You can send a black hood over...It'll work better :D

Tarios: Wow! Amazing...You're right...no over exposing or drastic enhancements, just a sharper image. I like the look a lot. Where can I get this program :)?

Glad you like it:
Usually all digital camera programs have this feature on their running program when you upload your pics-you know, somewhere where you can change your image into a sepia tone or black and white or crop etc..there should be a feature showimg general enhancement..if not..I use the ThumbsPlus program..
 
GSRstilez,
Wow it looks fantasticccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccczzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz Oh I must have fallen asleep--thanks alot groebuck :)
 
I agree with Timedout in that there are two different types of depth. Yours is depth of reflection. Either looks great but sometimes the look of a deep, rich color cannot be beat.

Very nice.
 
Looks awesome!!!!!!

In the sharpened pic that Tarios posted-do I see a little "Wax in the cracks" :hah
 
LSMan got it ;)

It's actually a hood gasket. TS didn't stain it, but FMJ did. All it needs it a quick swipe with a dressed applicator.

The white dot on my bumper is where somone1 backed into me :(...No idea when or who...it's a very minor paint transfer which I will have to wetsand out. The white mark on the lower lip is when I pulled too close to a curb. I can touch up and wetsand out in the spring because all the fun stuff comes off next week :/
