Title: Beauty Shots Post by: Robert on May 31, 2012, 09:42:32 AM In their September 2012 issue, a German car magazine will feature an article (written by myself) on my 131, the "Ineptitude". Yesterday they sent a photographer to take some pictures, and I took the chance to shoot some amateur pics myself, from a similar angle as the pro did - however, without his professional tools and artificial lighting. Here's some of my humble attempts (scaled down) - I am quite curious how the pictures in the printed article will look. (By the way, while I took 60 pictures he took around 600 :o, static and dynamic ones)

Didn't the original Fiat 131 brochure feature a Sport/Racing car next to an aeroplane? Or maybe that was the Supermirafiori and the Sport was on a ski slope.... (I'm getting too old to remember :-\ ) Title: Re: Beauty Shots Post by: Rob 131 on May 31, 2012, 10:26:23 AM Theo
The Super was next to the plane with a couple of executive types. The Sport was parked on the ski slope next to some late 20's trendy skiing yuppies. Great Brochure for a great car. They were making the S2 a very aspirational vehicle. The CL in the same brochure was parked outside a couple in their 30's large house that they were visiting for dinner. The S3 132 Brochure was on a similar line with the 132 being parked next to a nice boat in one of the shots.
