Deep pearl black looks awful when its got stone chips, but when polished it does look the nuts

1) What camera?
2) Your passenger wiper seems to be a bit high on the screen at rest, mine sits level with the drivers side. ie, below the line of the bonnet.
c) Did you use a polerizer for any of the shots??

Hi


1) Canon 500D with either a 10-22 or 17-55 lens
3) No polariser but ND grad to stop the sky blowing then tweaked the levels in Lightroom to get the exposure right for screen (on my PC exposure can look spot on but after uploading to Flickr I find the exposure seems to drop a stop or two

2) I've noticed my wiper more since the car was in the garage for the sensor replacement. (Might be my imagination) Ive always noticed it lifts up slightly when I turn the engine off (as all do) but it seems a tad excessive at the moment - will have to keep an eye on it.

Hello , yes it's been a while I just rejoined yesterday after forgetting my password.
I have a different number now which I can pm you. Have you been up to Glasgow lately ?

To be honest I would not get another black car. When it's waxed it looks the bees knees. I will be going for white or silver next time round.

Do PM your mobile no.
Have not been to Glasgow for a year now. It will be redressed come Spring.
I'll stay with Red as it brightens my day and costs nothing.
Silver or Shadow Blue would be my next choices.

I have noticed that my wipers are slightly higher than when new, I think it happened last winter when snow became compacted under them, turned to ice and the wipers could not go down.
