Boozyblokes Place Update 3-8-11 Old wet car 2.0 competition entry and reject

[ashes619]

A superb new set. Good job 👍

 

[Duman079]

Did you get it gold btw ?

 

[ceiling_fan]

Liking 2, 3, and 4 the most. Nicely done.

 

[boozybloke]

Thanks everyone, it's a fairly standard set, but it's probably the only chance I'll have to photo this car.

And yes Duman.. I did make gold

Thats great. I stopped trying to get them all in gold, it costs way to much time xD. I only got 2/3 bronze. That Ferrari challenge you got gold was very hard.

 

[Jason_B]

Love 3,5, and the last Ferrari shots.

 

[Pebb]

I like the composition in number 1.

 

[sems4arsenal]

Spectacular Update ,Love the First and 4th the most but All of them are Brilliant 👍

 

[boozybloke]

Thanks fellahs Not sure what my next set should be... any other requests?

Ferarri Enzo @ Le Sarthe
Ok, it's an Enzo... Should be an interesting drive, yeah? Well... I'd heard it's a bit of an understeer-y nightmare, and, yes it is. But man it's quick...
And it looks so goooooooooooood...



















Comments to the usual address on the back of a used crisp packet please

[Pebb]

I like the second to last shot.

 

[Tower Turn 13]

All very pretty.

 

[ceiling_fan]

Awesome angle on the second to last one.

 

[Grand Prix]

2nd last one is definitely the winner here. 👍

 

[boozybloke]

Thanks guys

 

[Dolp]

The 6th is my fav, awesome reflection and light use! (seems to me there's bad focus on the 3th, 4th and 5th...or maybe too soft on the processing)

 

[sems4arsenal]

Second to last and 4th are Stunning ,Did you add extra Blur than Usual mate,or is my eyes playing tricks ?

 

[boozybloke]

Cheers Dolp and Sems. Yeah, I'm really pushing the soft focus on this set. Maybe too much you think? You've picked out my own favourite though Dolp. I like the way that there's almost a picture-in-a-picture with the reflection; lots of unsharp masking to bring out the detail and colour

I'm Back!! Lexus IS-F at Grand Valley

Well, I've been away for a while, as my PS3 shat itself, and though have another one, the thought of starting from scratch was too much to bear. Still, I did start again, though I'll probably never get as far as I did originally, I will still do some shoots now and again. So, here for your delectation...

That last shot is awesome

That last shot is awesome

Thanks A little bit of HDR (3 bracketed shots) and some photoshoppery used for that one. I'm pleased with it anyway

 

[Skython]

Amazing gallery, I looked at the last 2 pages or so, and amazing stuff, the Viper shots you did for Sems just look spectacular. You can tell me what to do with my stuff, because these are almost godly (I have yet to come across Godly) BUT!!!! Sometimes look a little pixelly, because of photoshop maybe?

Thanks for the compliment

I'm not sure exactly why they might look pixelly, I sometimes put noise or grain texture on the picture to soften the look a little and break up that 'artificiality' that you get, or it might also be the compression routines that photobucket uses, I know a lot of the others use flickr.

If you want to see 'godly' have a look at Sixtoes' gallery, for some jaw dropping HDR pictures, or GPR's, or Mogshots, or Revolution. Those guys stuff is incredible.
