To maneuver in a stretch limo you have to walk bent >over with your nose to the ground. I shot four stretch interiors and >a bunch of buses. I used the K20D and the DA 12-24 at 12 mm for all >shots. I mounted the camera on my small Slik graphite tripod, which >made things somewhat manageable. I figured the only good way to light >these things was with their own interior lights, but it had to be >done in the dark. Luckily, the company has a huge garage, so I had >them pull each vehicle inside. I shot manual focus at a hyperfocal >setting -- about three feet for the stretch limos and seven feet for >the buses. The exposure on this shot is f7.1, 4 seconds, ISO 500. >It's a stretch Lincoln limo. The passenger cabin is about 12 feet >long. I also shot a stretch Hummer that's 25 feet long, nose to tail. > > >http://photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=7672877&size=lg
Interesting low-key image. Fab advertising pic for the client, they should be impressed. Girl on seat with champagne ?
