OK, now you got me going. I started a Photobucket account and these are my 2 favorites so far...
Still need to touch up the errant strobe highlights on the photo from San Antonio Raceway, as that will be my car's "official" portrait.

(Deep blue) tends to have the most change in different lighting conditions of all the colors.
You aren't kidding! I've had a heckuva time getting the "true blue" my eye sees while photographing my car. I'll use an off-camera strobe to better saturate the blue color, but then my matte aluminum wheels get too "hot" (as you can see in the dragstrip photo), and it's hard using just Photoshop to get them to look natural. I need to learn to use one of the new editing programs that allows you to stitch together different exposures so I can take one shot with flash, and one without to properly expose the wheels, and them overlay them.

I've been asked if two pics of my car are the same car on here.
