Would take up a lot more time driving around but there is still a while until next year..... Or the year after.The pics will also be fresh provided you don't show anyone until the final product is done. I think it's a great idea. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Such I simple idea amazed no one thought of it. Always liked a good car calendar, and no women laying on cars as it takes away from the car being the central character. I know I will be shot down for saying that, but there is sports illustrated for them to look at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That way we're not left with a heap of calendars that we paid for, but can't sell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How it's done though is by taking a bunch of photos at different focal lengths. The photographer would've moved forward and back from the concrete block to keep the framing of the block the same throughout the shots.It's a great example of how a long focal length really pulls the background of an image up.Thread for the calendar discussion is FordXR6Turbo.com Calendar.
