Had the opportunity to shoot a Rolls Royce Phantom today. What a beautiful car. It's huge, though. Too big for me. But I'd drive it if you made me. :biggrin A lot of the parts on the car come from several BMW vehicles. The brakes, for example, come from the M6. Other parts comes from the 760. The alarm, when you arm and disarm, sounds very familiar (BMW like).

Anyhow, it was a great subject to shoot.

Everything looks top notch Mark. Make sure to include at least one shot of the entire beast.

Casey, my location did not lend itself for a full shot of the entire car. I was working with limited space. I got what I could. Felt very cramped.

Well then nice work under the circumstances. You have learned well. The situation doesnt always lend it's hand to your goal...

Thanks, Meric. It's a beautiful car to be sure. Lots of detail, all the way down to the umbrella that slides in and out of the door panel.

Meric, the the spirit of ecstasy drops down into the grille when you lock the car. It pops up when you disarm the car.
