What's the best backdrop/background to have, when taking pictures of your car?
All suggestions welcome...

when you have a really nice clean motor that's shiney...best backgrounds are like...grotty places, graffiti on the walls, industrial estates with stuff in the background...underground car parks can be good sometimes, but yeah, try some estates and graffiti areas, makes the photo look well smart. Here's one of my favourites of shaunmods car

Nah, something fairly plain or a good scenery - 2 total contrasts!

I loved the pictures of that london car park, the cars looked stunning.
I could also see countryside pictures working very well tbh...can't see asda car park working good, lol.

Most things are good backgrounds. Graffiti Walls, rivers, sky, just depends on what the shot is trying to achieve...

One of my favorites of my old car, just a shame it was taken on a phone.

to me Graham88's pictures say this:
1st one: The car has a dominating presence about it because it's in a shithole and looks mint.
2nd one: The car looks a little lost due to the bigger structures in the background, I like the look of the long road in front of it though...

keep it simple and contrasting from the colour of the car, cant go wrong.
