they are awesome! i have just got an EOS1000D with the kit lens. those look wicked, what settings were they taken with? got any tips? i'd love to get some photos of my car like that, have they been through photoshop or something? I love the look of them, almost like HDR? Especially the one from inside of the moving Lambo, it looks so vivid and bright.

Can't remember the settings, but the one from outside of the car, I had the camera attached to the window on a suction mount and the shutter was tripped with a remote release from inside the car.

All of them have been through Photoshop, where I usually give the contrast and saturation a tweak before doing a little bit of sharpening prior to resizing and saving for the web.

It's the road between Andermatt and Wassen, which is where the Sustenpass starts.
