There they are again, those darn little bastards! :grumpy:


Just kidding, man. That's an excellent photo.

It doesn't have the cleanliness (if that's a word) of the previous - and I believe it was not meant to anyway - it's an awesome composition, very well balanced, and with a sense of action not very often seen around here. 👍


still can't stop thinking about those things... :nervous:
 
Thanks for the excellent comment Beerzgood, and don't worry about those wheels, you probably won't ever see them again.

I was thinking about taking a car request again so If anybody has any ideas go ahead and post 'em.
 
I have one!!! *stands up with his arm reaching for the sky*

I'd like to see a Toyota 2000GT @ Autumn Ring. :)
 
It's this one. ( and sorry for posting a thumbnail in your gallery, but it's easier than describing the car)


Edit: I don't remember how I got it, really. But it's just beautiful.
 
Ok, I know where to get it, toyota classic car lot hopefully.

I think Garnettrules21 has some awesome shots of that car in his gallery.

I'll see what I can come up with though.
 
Yes it is. However unlikely it is that I'll get one, it's my dream car. It's pure gourgeousity.

Very nicley composed pic LOON! It looks like you spent enough time on the angle, zoom, etc. to get the perfect shot. Well, I think it was worth it!
 




Well here it is. Personally I don't like how these turned out but oh well, feel free to tell me how much they suck.

My next update will be better I'm sure. I'm planning on doing a BIG drifting update plus a vid to go along with it.
 
These are good shots i love the 1st shot it looks like there is heat haze effect.
👍
 
Cool, thanks for doing it, LOON.

Maybe the only problem with the them is the cropping, what do you think? It would perhaps look better if you cropped more of the left side oo the 1st one and some of the bottom on the 2nd.

I'm liking a lot of the colors on the 1st one. 👍

Are those leafs? Man, the two flying higher (because they're grey) look like small rocks at first glance. :)

Good job though.
 
Thanks Tommi.

Your welcome Beerz, good advice about cropping them. Those are leafs in the first, they're dark like that because they're in the shade. I hard a hard time getting the leaf to come up though, don't know why.
 
These shots have a nice look to them, but I think the composition is a little 'off'. The way the car leads off the edge of the frame makes them sort of uncomfortable to look at to me...

Had the car been fully in the shot whilst still maintaining the wide angle look they might have looked spectacular. I do like the low aperture look with the violent blurring though.
 
They aren't great, but they aren't bad. I agree with Moglet, the composition is off. On a better note, looking forward to your Drift update 👍

Wow, thanks Moglet, thanks for the comment and advice.👍
EDIT: I can't believe that you were able to pick out exactly what I did, because I did lower the apeture all the way, and I lowered the blur a couple of notchs. Simply amazing.

Thanks for the comment Streetz.
 
After seeing Ultrashot's new Exige Lotus shot, I decided to google the Exige and see what it was about, which in turn inspired me to take my own shot of a lotus. This is also to kinda make up for the crappy 2000GT shots so here ya go.
 
nice updates lately. i dont know why you dont like the GT2000. i love that car for looks. it's like a nice pair of very expensive ray ban sunglasses. i love the 2nd photo of it. the lotus is looking artsy too. good work man!
 
I love the Exige photos not to keen on the Toyota pictures agreed it is a beautiful car but it is a pretty rubbish car. Great work if you have time check out my gallery to see my "Big Test".
 
That is a great shot man. The tone matching the car is great because it the car doesn't blend in with the overtone. Great update man 👍

Thanks Adrian, to me they don't look good compared to some of my other updates. I still don't see how you get ray bans out of that car.

Thanks Speedster.
That Exige shot is beautiful! 👍
Thanks Tommi

Thanks for the commnt Streetz.

Ok, no more updates until I get my drift shots Done.
 
The Lotus shot is very cool!!! A very nice job. Love the blue tone, goes really well with the background...and with the car of course.
Congrats mate, this gallery is gettin cooler everyday:)
 

I know I said I wasn't going to do anymore updates until I got my drift update done but oh well, this is just a shot from TT I did a little while ago and I thought it came out pretty nice so here you go.

And the Drift Update has been cancelled for now due to a new one of a kind project I'm in.

I hope y'all like this shot, thanks.👍
 
I decided a few days ago to nick my brothers TT and take some photos as well. Dont know if you did what I did though which was kept using the really long and narrow photo shot size to me it looked really cool. Nice shot though LOON :)

looks good, the camera rotation is a bit agressive for my tastes though.
Thanks.👍

Thanks man.👍
 
That is a really cool shot, is that valentino rossi on the bike???
It looks like his race suit.
 
oooooh. that TT shot is looking good LOON! very nice! and yeah the suit and bike combination does remind me of Valentino Rossi. off topic: i hear rumours that he might do some testing with ferrari F1 again. i hope he does. :D
