      Calvin, ive tried to go on your enterreg website, just to let you know there seems to be a problem with the site ceritification, it literally tells me acces denied, just thought i'd let you know incase other people are having the same experience, and it may be limiting your site traffic. -fellow car trader

    That same space you took the M3 out of (at 12:03), you should use that space for photos. Paint the walls white, make an 'Infinity Wall', put up some signage and tube lighting and that would be a perfect back drop. Plus, that way, you'd never have to worry about the weather

    @spiritzen Před rokem +2

    Calvin, better to do photos in that extra indoor space you have with properly rigged lighting. This way you can control the lighting come rain or shine and also the photos will look better. Especially after a good clean. Outdoor shots can be hit and miss with harsh shadows and inconsistent lighting.

    • @ChrisFEJackson
      @ChrisFEJackson Před rokem +1

      I agree, that way with similar lighting, you will also be able to compare how cars look. Normal daylight as you say is at the mercy of daily weather, we live in the UK, no brainer for 365 indoor photography!
