Nice TVR shots, very interesting entry and different from what you usually see.
I really like the fourth large thumbnail, the reflections on the car look suburb.

Drift2xs - thanks

RX8 @ hong kong:

I'm not so sure about the whole blurry picture thing. There is a side of me that says "What is this?" and then there is the side that says "Hmm". For instance, the 2nd thumbnail is pretty cool. It is comprised of mainly colors, shapes, and values. Another one that is a pick for me is the 3rd thumnail. The main reason I like that one is because of the sharp headlight. It brings some sense to an otherwise insane photo.

Ey ey ey, wait for me man! I guess I was lost for a while, like you . Well, stating with the TVR update, I like the soft editting and the GT4 blur you performed. You also was able to catch some great reflections over the car!

The RX8. Well, the car is very blurry in some of those, but the first camera is awesome with so lighting!. I'm not sure if the blurred car is because the low speed aperture or the editting. If you want to do very blurred backgrounds with a defined car and the situation doesn't let this, just try to take 2 different shots. One with a low aperture and another with a fast aperture. Then paste de car, or some part of the car over the blurred one

Btw Honk Kong is one (Or the) most difficult track to make photos. You used some nice cameras 👍

The vintage ones . They look cool. I specially like the last three photos, like you were making a photosession near your own house. The amount of contrast made me forget where the shot was taken.

Be happy mate!!

alex - thanks 👍 with the RX8, that was how i wanted it to come out. i was really disappointed in the first thumbnail. i couldnt get the nose to be as focused as i wanted it to be.

with the dual images, ive done that before and how i got the mr gtr to come out as smooth as i did, but, i can usually get it right without it so its not something i use very often.

thanks 👍

i wasnt sure how well the three phototravel pictures would have turned out. i feel too restricted in both of those locations. ill probably upload my bmw pictures over the weekend. they came out rather colourless so im not sure if i will or not

anything youd like to request, alex?

 

[.*StReeTz*.]

Those Triumph shots are really good. They are very soft but I think it suits the car well. The first thumbnail is exceptional. It has a great angle and awesome composition. The fact that it is the same car you are racing and the attitude of the car is the same is great; it makes for a great photo. The paint in all of the photos, especially the last three thumbnails is great, definately looks like chameleon paint. Great update!

 

[alexwrc]

I wish an audi quattro. It's a shame the Sport or S1 wern't included in GT4!

audi quattro coming right up 👍 shell be getting dirty though, i hope thats okay with you

in the mean time, some random TT's :

the first four are the Honda CBR600RR RM @ Midfield, the next two is the Suzuki GSX-R1000 @ Valencia and the last one is a Ducati 999R RM @ Nordschliefe

​

 

[.*StReeTz*.]

Oh man, I need this game now. Those are beautiful my friend. I really love the second and last shots. In the second shot the angle is perfect and the positioning of the rider and bike are great. The last one is awesome too. Half because it's a great shot, half because I love that Fila Ducati. Great work man!

 

[GT4_Rule]

Cool shots 👍

Nice pics! Lossing graphic info, winning artistic and personal look .

[dylansan]

I gotta admit, those are pretty awesome. Only thing I suggest is not to go too dark when doing reflections. I find it better when the car is more vibrant than the scenery, and it makes the reflections stand out more. 👍

 

[.*StReeTz*.]

Very artistic 👍

 

[[empty space]]

alex - your quattro 👍 sorry for only 4 pictures, but, neither tracks were really "speaking to me"

i think ill re-edit my bmw v12 lmr pictures and see if any turn out better for the H2H comp. or maybe ill put the apmc entry into h2h and then something else for apmc? hmm ... ill also post the rest of my tvr speed 12 pictures later this week and might include the bmw pictures.

alex - thanks 👍 i think i lost a bit too much, but, the chamleon colouring was coming out really weird.

minicooper - thanks 👍 i appericate the suggestion as well.

.*StReeTz*. - thanks 👍

 

[.*StReeTz*.]

Very colorful backgrounds 👍. I'm not a fan of the car but you made it look as good as it possibly could

 

[alexwrc]

Thanks a lot Empty . The Quattro souldn't be in another place than a rally track. I like how clean looks all surfaces. I'm watching the superCyan with sunglasses btw

The combination of focal and motion blur is great! The needed details are well defined so... very nice work!

.*StReeTz*. - thanks 👍 im starting to surprise myself. usually i use gimp for my addvanced editing, but photofiltre is still proving to be quite capable. i cant add motion blur since it doesnt do layers, but, when have i done that? i dont like aftermarket blurring.

Alex - where were you expecting? audi quattro screams of rallying

 

[jgda9rs]

wow. nice set of updates lately. the tt's look amazing. the quattro's looking sharp as well. did u know michelle mouton won a world championship with the full race version of that car ? (correct me if i'm wrong). it did really well, and revolutionized how rallye cars should be built from that time on. i love the tone of the photos too. my favorite has to be the fourth one. the z's looking real great too.

 

[Pebb]

I really love the 2nd shot of the Cerbera Speed 12.

 

[Cod_Father]

Very nice Audi. So clean. Great work!

 

[jgda9rs]

i forgot to comment on the speed 12. it's great too. can't believe i did that. bring more!!

 

[azevedojose]

I really like that Audi last shot. So clean!

 

[[empty space]]

thanks for the comments guys 👍 now i need comp opinions!

BMW V12 LMR @ New York:

​

TVR Speed 12:

​

okay, so, heres my train of thought. im thinking either replacing my current H2H picture with my current APMC entry and then one of the TVR Speed 12 would easyly fit in there since the city location seems more a good "bright, paatty" location than being parked in new york. unless the current apmc doesnt allow for photo travel? i cant remember off hand.

and, this is where you, the voting public makes your opinions known. the current entrys:

H2H and APMC

TIA!

 

[Pebb]

All I have to say about all four shots of the Cerbera Speed 12 is Wow, but those 4 Cerbera Speed 12 shots will also make for some good future wallpaper’s to use. Anyway keep up the great work.
