The Top Trending Car Accessories At The Moment

If you are thinking of purchasing a new car, you might be wondering what types of accessories to add to the vehicle upon purchase. Certain accessories can be added at any time, but others might need to be added only when you are in the process of buying a car such as a land rover suv or other new models. There are some very popular accessories that many car owners are adding to their vehicles to make them more efficient on a daily basis. Knowing about these accessories can give you an idea of which ones are right for you.

Automatic Car Starter

The car starter is a small remote gadget that can be added to your keys. By pressing a button two or three times, the car will automatically start up for you without you having to put the key into the engine. This particular car accessory is great for warming or cooling the car before having to get into it. Long gone are the days when you have to get into a freezing cold car in the middle of winter.

Bluetooth Capabilities

So many people use smartphones and android devices that it only makes sense to add Bluetooth capabilities to your car. By having Bluetooth in the car, you can easily call friends and family hands-free so that you do not have to bother fiddling with a phone in your hands. This is a fantastic way to carry on a conversation while still keeping a close eye on the road. Most smartphones can be automatically hooked-up to the Bluetooth that has been installed into your car.

Satellite Radio

Satellite radio is another fantastic addition to just about any car. This type of radio is a lot different than what you probably have in your car at the moment. For example, you may have a lot of stations that are filled with static. The satellite radio features static-free listening so that you can enjoy new music and talk shows all the time. Satellite radio is similar to watching television because there are a multitude of channels available so that you always have something worth listening to.

Key-less Entry

 
With more and more people worrying about losing their keys and break-ins, many people are choosing to add key-less entry to their vehicles. The way this particular accessory works is by enabling the driver to put in a code on the side of the car to unlock the doors. This is a wonderful option for those individuals who tend to lock themselves out of their cars or forget their keys all the time. Most of the accessories mentioned can be added to your vehicle, provided that your manufacturer allows it. When buying a new car, you may want to discuss these options with your dealer and see how much they will cost if you decide to have them put into your car. These accessories can make owning and driving a car a lot more fun for you each day.

The Modern Car Image

Drivers that truly have a passion for their luxury cars need to find as many ways to express this love as possible. This expression can expand beyond the occasional washing and waxing. Displaying the automotive love that drives you can take the form of photographs. However, the traditional snapshots of cars can be challenging to present in new and dynamic ways. Taking photos of cars to heighten their appeal for either resale or hobbies requires moving beyond the old angles that everyone has seen. These images will simply not make the grade.

Set the Scene

The first step towards success is to give the environment due consideration. The environment includes the background that will be present and the ambient lighting of the setting. The lighting is of particular importance. This factor can effect everything from the clarity of the shot to the balance and saturation of your colors. Serious photographers will want to work with lighting factors while shooting the actual photo. However, the colors and exposure can be adjusted on a computer if you are in a crunch for time.
 

Get In Close

Detailed shots of the interior can be nice pieces to accent shots of the entire car. These kinds of photos can be particularly frustrating, especially when it comes to capturing a sharp image. If you do not have some sort of tripod, then it is wise to add it to your collection of equipment. The tripod stabilizes every shot for greater detail. The details and resolution of the image can make or break your efforts. For the best results, speed up the camera aperture and lower your ISO settings.

Capture a Feeling

Cars can display brilliant personalities in the same way that people can. In order to achieve this effect, pick flattering angles and decide on the “good-side” of the car. Determine the kind of feeling you wish to get across, and frame shots that will emphasize this dimension of the vehicle. Wide angles will exaggerate the car's features, for instance. Exaggerating perspective by taking shots from the level of the bumper or lower will give the car a much more aggressive appearance. Experimenting with these kinds of shots can be very beneficial. Attempt to get different effects with zoom functions while comparing those results to getting in position and losing the additional lens.

Light Strikes Again

Light can help or harm a photograph. People that love their cars will buff and wax until the surface of the car is virtually a mirror. Taking a photograph of a car with a surface that reflects too much light distracts from the actual beauty of the car's pure form. The excess light will wreak havoc with the exposure of the camera, making the balance of lights and darks seem unnatural or awkward. Filters for the camera lens can be very helpful in trying to dampen effects such as these.

Artistic License

Do not be afraid to crop your image and zoom. Capturing just the grill or the dynamics of the taillights can make for compelling photographs. The mind loves to take one small image and create the rest of the car from the imagination. It is a photographic technique that eliminates distractions in the photo and engages the viewer. Cropping is usually at its best when you choose a part of the car that represents its most distinctive features.
