Default Some pictures I took

I am by no means a photo guru but I took some pictures today of my friends RX8 (macro mode on a few of em) and was looking for some feedback/tips to take better pictures

Well, I'm by no means a great photo critic, but I will say that the light at midday (that's when it looks like you took most of these pictures) will wash out just about all colors from your pictures. Even the red looks pretty flat and washed out in these pictures. Light in the mornings or evenings is warmer and will create more vibrant colors. I'm sure others will chime in with better input than me

Unfortunately yes most of these pictures were taken when the sun was high and unobstructed (by clouds)

The high-noon sun will also wash away the finely tuned nature of your car and leave your S2000 looking like a Mazda j/k

So ambient lighting for the win then, what about angles and whatnot?
