The Jade Lambo going around the corner at Aso is amazing! 
The new Italian Theater pics are pretty cool (and original!) too.

My first Rally set! (well, that is if you don't count my snow rally from awhile back, which I don't particularly like... 
) I wanted to get one of these into the 2.0 comp, but couldn't get it done in time. Oh well, maybe next time...

Thanks as always Nato.
Thanks, I'm not usually keen on the off colors either, but I saw someone's sparkly green on another car and wanted to replicate that on the Gallardo for fun. Thanks also on the Kubbel!
Thanks Foster!
Thank you c_f - that Aso pic is one of my favorites. It's a pretty simple photo, but I like it.

Dodge Ram photos are picture perfect! And your WWII photos - amazing! Captured the era perfectly. đź‘Ť Amazing job.
Thanks as always Nato.

Thanks nanabu, but we both know you can do it better than I can...
Those are S P E C T A C U L A R ! It's a shame you didn't get one (the last one is pure win) in the comp as I think you would've creamed it. đź‘Ť
Hehe, thanks Nato. It's okay if I didn't get it in, I'm just having fun taking the pics.
oh wow
Thank you Soloracer - yeah, I noticed that too. I like the colors and detail this car has.
The first one is great, I like the lighting and colouring in it. Nice, I think it's a very nice way to start off your rally-shooting.:tup:
Thanks Fishy - it's all about the lighting.
The last shot of the Lancer is amazing. It looks like it is in Finland or New Zealand.
I would love to go to Finland or New Zealand. Maybe some day.
Thanks for the comments!Thanks! I'm glad you like that one. That photo is definitely one that benefits from a better resolution and black background.

Time for an uber update. I looked around and didn't find a suitable track portfolio of the real world tracks, so I made one. I hope you like!

Wow, epic landscape/track shots.
Like Skuba-Skuba, the Corkscrew, and Nurb.

...Just some eclectic shots:
The first two shots were for the 2.0 "Luxury" Comp, until, that is, I was reminded that the Jaguar was not expensive enough to be in the competition...
I did mention that I installed a $250,000 stereo, didn't I? (Can't you just smell the Corinthian leather? 
)
These shots were for a CCCL Comp, but I didn't get it done in time...
(You are starting to notice a pattern of failure, aren't you? )
I guess this is a teaser for the "City Circuit" set I will be doing soon... (This is one of only two tilt lens (miniature) pics I have taken and saved - it will not be making it to the final set...)
Lastly, a holdover from my Jade Lambo set previously:

Thank you GP - Skuba Skuba and the Corkscrew were my favorites from the set as well. (Skuba Skuba, that's pretty funny...
)Thank you!
Nice idea!
I like the execution as well.
Thanks Fishy - just trying something a little different.

Thanks as always my friend. I like Tsukuba as well.
Well, I wouldn't go that far... but it's okay. đź‘Ť
Hehe, thanks!
Thank you Soloracer. Great shots from you - I love your 2.0 comp entry.
Thanks rev - those are my favs as well!

Thanks for the comments!
@ Nato - the blur effect in the Jaguar photo puddle was accomplished by closing the aperture to 1.4. I initially did it because the potted plants in the background were rendered poorly, and they were ruining the shot. Interestingly, it affected the puddle as well.

With the new Nissan comes new pictures! Laguna Seca has one of the best skies in GT5 in my opinion. There is only one problem. At the top of the corkscrew sits a horrendously big green Rolex sign, which blocks the view. It ruins the composition of pictures from the middle of the corkscrew looking up. And, it irks me. Irk, of course, being only a mild form of irritation, but irk nonetheless! Nothing a little photoshop can't deal with.
The new Nissan understeers, so I'll have to work on the suspension and LSD a little more to get 'r right. Nevertheless, it's nice and fast and should be fun around the 'Ring. Hope you like the pictures, I tried different editing styles. On some of them I increased exposure and played with contrast such that it gives it a mild HDR effect. (The whitish halo around the black vehicle on the road is a dead giveaway for this...)

I really like that first photo, the car works really well with low down camera angles and having the kerb blurred like that looks great! I haven't had a chance to take that car out properly myself but I think I know where I'm taking it first!

Very nice work! I really like your 2.0 work and the new Nissan work. Thanks for the comment about my 2.0
Thanks Solo - wonderful job you did on the tourney - congratulations on the big win! đź‘Ť

MOGLET! Thanks for gracing the pages of my humble gallery! That photo was also my favorite of the group, as it was the one that seemed a little more realistic than the others. (I wasn't going for realism on the blue sky pics...) The car is great - can't wait to see what great pics you take of it!
Great shots - gotta love the sky in the last photo. đź‘Ť
Oh and RKM Motorsport Tuning Garage have just posted a tune for the N24 - see it here.
NATO! Thanks - I like the sky also. And thanks also for the link to RKM - their tune looks almost exactly the way I already had it set up. They decreased the LSD on braking more than I did, though, which is precisely what I was going to try next in order to decrease the understeer. Apparently, great minds think alike.

I entered the PMC with a single unedited bracket of the following shot. This one, however, is a 6 photo HDRI with some tone mapping and color cleaning:

That last shot is incredibly beautiful.
