This was a challenging assignment that required a lot of ingenuity and flexibility to make do with what is available. A vacant parking lot at 5:30 am and a white tractor trailer that just happened to be parked perpendicular to the axis of the rising sun. It was all about positioning the car in various angles to shoot in relationship to the morning magic light and it's reflection from the trailer used as fill light. Of course I brought along a few 4x10 foot sheets of foam core ( a basic staple for large item photography. No lights were used other than natural light. Lots of photoshop removed reflecting trees, light standards and pavement. This car happened to be the first built in Canada, I am honoured to be the first to photograph one here. More about the car...
