Loving the last pic Zeb, how the hell did you do that!?

ElegantSpoon · 03-08-2010, 12:24 PM

Great pics Zeb

zebedee · 03-08-2010, 02:44 PM

Thanks for the comments.

The "Out Of Picture" shot is done in photoshop. I am no expert and probably make it harder than it should be, but if your slightly experienced with photoshop, just select the area you want (you can see the similar area in the previous pic) then just draw a border of white around it but not across the car, it then looks like it is coming out of the photograph.

The first two pics were also photoshopped a little with the car selected the background was darkened a bit. These were just quick edits as can be seen in the windows I didnt darken the background, looks a bit false.

ALPANDY · 03-18-2010, 03:32 PM

Im new to the forum but not to BMW's, this is my third so far and Im considering changing it for my forth.

Its an 07' Alpina D3 no:315.
Really wasn't sure whether I liked it at first, but it has grown on me a little now. I am considering either changing it for a 335 or just hanging on to it for another year and maybe having the windows tinted.

Thought I would say Güten Tag,

Bought our first BMW, just a 318d M Sport for my good lady with the thought of trading the other car in for a BMW for me, later this year.

Love the car so far - sensible, relaxing but nice to drive and have my bike to go mad on

zebedee - I'm just outside Edinburgh

zebedee · 03-23-2010, 02:17 PM

KaiserRR In Dunfermline myself, also have the bike for more performance although nowadays its a tourer, my body cant get on a sports bike anymore....who ate all the pies!

HI all,

Stephen from dublin here.
Been lurking around here a long time now but never introduced myself properly as at the time I start looking at buying a BMW for myself, a bit of job security went so didn't think it was time to be taking the plunge

Now Im back looking and need a bit of help so its time to say hello. Thats my story so any help you can give in my thread would be really appreciated.

Cheer,
Stephen
