My Photoshoot

Finally, a picture of my car. Its a Proton Satria GTi.

Proton Satria, (also called Proton Compact in the UK) is a sporty 3-door hatchback based on the Mitsubishi Colt. Proton gained a lot of valuable engineering knowledge from its takeover of Lotus which ultimately led to a special Lotus badged version of the Satria being produced; the Proton Satria GTi . This was Proton's attempt at the sporty, performance hatchback market. Very popular in Malaysia and has a large following in Australia and the UK.

Sunday photoshoot

I had a chance to snap some photos yesterday. I almost nearly canceled it because it was raining heavily. Luckily the sky cleared up somewhat around 6+pm to reveal beautiful orange rays during sunset. For this photoshoot I invited my friend as the model (the car, that is). Shots were taken on a Canon EOS 450D using Canon's EF 50mm f/1.8 lens. Here are the pictures in HDR glory.
