  1. Installed an SA-12 in one of my old boxes with a Crescendo amp in my coworkers Jeep today

    And then I got distracted with the camera...

    what camera? That's the first thing I noticed in that picture, the quality that is.

    Shallow depth of field. What's in front of the focus plane (what exactly you are focused on) and behind the plane are blurry. You need a larger imager (CCD size in your camera) and a "bright" lens to get the most shallow depth of field.

    Point and shoots or phones with fixed lenses and tiny sensors can't do that well. These photos can be had with even an entry level SLR camera and stock lens. I'd actually like to know what cam and lens these were shot with as well...

    EDIT:

    Haha as you can see the camera is a Nikon D5500. Lens is a Nikon 35mm f/1.8G DX lens. My parents picked up the camera last month, so I've been having fun toying around with it in manual mode. Photography has been something I've wanted to get into for quite a while now; It's just been hard to justify the startup cost. I'm thinking I'd like to get something like the Nikon D7200 towards the end of the year to use with mountain biking, car shows, etc. I played around with the photo of the Audi in lightroom to try to lower the exposure on the hood and windshield. It helped a bit, but I definitely have a lot to learn!

    damn I didn't realize how much info actually stayed with a picture. but I took a photography class last year, it was cool to learn all the things you can manipulate on the camera to get an awesome picture.
