poster of my Z
I took some new pictures of my Z this weekend. I want to go to Kinkos to have a poster made of my Z. Which one do you guys think would be best for a poster? Kinkos will be kinda pricey so I want to choose a good shot. Let me know what you think.

hmm... tough to say.. i like the pics where you can see water in the background or at least mountains... and i say avoid the rear end.. z31 tailights are ugly ... haha imo anyways. but still a pretty damn good lookin z31 and car in general

Thanks guys. Ugly tail lights? I actually like the early ones (like I have) so much that I put the later (87-89) front end on my car. I like the later front ends with the earlier tails. Everyone's different. Don't worry my Z isn't offended. lol Soon the rear will be lower as I am putting in coil overs soon.

These get my "votes" as best shots for a poster ..

My 0.02 .. all really nice shots .. ok?
Beautiful photo .. but the trees appear to be growing out of you Z .. in a 2' x 3' poster .. that effect can be magnified?
bush or tree over the hood
my favorite so far
needs more Z in the shot
I like this one .. but needs more Z in the shot
Kinda dark? And the bush
This is nice .. kinda dark, but maybe it' my monitor settings?
Again .. nice,but needs more Z in the shot
This is awesome, would have been my 1st choice except for the bush over the rear hatch
Another nice one .. except for the bush in the back

Again .. just what I think? All are great shots, but posting to explain why I picked the one's I did ..
I like the jet stream effect .. taken at sunrise? I would have liked to see that same shot, but with the lights "on".
The "glare" off the license plate detracts?
YES! .. nice balance of Z and background .. overall lighting is excellent
I like this one too, but I like the one above more.
I think it's the mountain above .. just the wrong location?

People who make assumptions usually resemble the first three letters of that word.
I have decided to use 13 pictures & make a collage (I can define that word for you if you want) with one picture centered and the other 12 around it. Found an online company (thanks to someone with something pertinent to say on another forum) that will make the poster much less expensively than Kinkos.
Thanks to those who posted their opinions as to which pictures they liked best. Helped me pic the 13 I will use & more importantly helped me select the one I will use in the center of the poster.

Don't go to kinkos or anywhere online. You can get up to a 20 x 30" print from costco. Upload online pick up in a couple hours, do a collage and don't be a dick cause someone called you out (cause I'm pretty sure that was sarcasm on their part)

I'll check into Costco. Thanks for the info.
As for being a dick, if he's calling me out then why's it ok for him to be a dick? If he can give sarcasm he should be able to take it. Otherwise he shouldn't post or grow thicker skin. He posted nothing about my topic & thus added nothing positive to the thread. He could have at least posted his choice(s) along with his sarcasm.

costco is the ****. I'm pretty into photography as an amateur, the only issue I've had so far is they printed one of the pictures of the Z a little dark, but they will gladly reprint for you for free. They do up to 20 x 30 like I said but it requires quite a hefty picture. Sorry about flying off the handle, I'm just sick of people not having a sense of humor, out of place. Sorry mate. BTW costcos price for a 12 x 16 which is fantastic at 6 MP is 2.99 you can upload online and pay when you get there. Ususally done in about two hours. the 20 x 30s are 9.99. Seriously good deal, sorry again

And this second
I also like the one in your sig!! Great with the skyline. Just too bad that wall was there. I'd like to see a dusk or a tad later shot with the Hoover Dam lit up in the backdrop...
