Rolls Royce Phantom -- photoshoot

[Marcus-SanDiego]

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.

She is sooo beautiful....I can just about feel her. Mark you have great skills and where a student has great skills, comes a mentor that is above and beyond nearby. Congrats!

[C Withers Media]

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

[Marcus-SanDiego]

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.

[C Withers Media]

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

[Marcus-SanDiego]

Yep. It was an impromptu shoot. I got what I could.

[Ryans323i]

Gorgeous. Like Trevor, it seems as though I can feel every inch pictured. Really great shots.

[Marcus-SanDiego]

Thanks, Ryan. Glad you like the shots.

[Meric]

Wow amazing car and photographer! Great pictures! Look at that interior, real wood.

[Marcus-SanDiego]

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]

And their symbol/logo i believe it pops up when you start the engine or open the trunk not sure but that thing is electronic i know it pops up and goes down.

[Marcus-SanDiego]

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

[Meric]

Too much details. How come my car doesn't have that feature? :P

[imola red zhp]
