2nd for me. Nice shots everyone. Congrats Zerox.

Congratz Zerox!

 

[Shwaag]

I'm kinda disappointed I didn't even get a single vote, mine was the Prelude.
But the other entries were also wonderful.
Congrats to ZEROX for winning this one!

If I may give you some constructive criticism. That shot you entered looks like it was taken with the Miniature filter, if it was, I suggest that you ditch that. I have seen it being used on others shots by you. If you want blur in the background I suggest that you use a lower f-number, F/1.0? But the composition was just spot on and I like the feeling it gives out. Sorry for criticizing so many things, but I think using other methods than the miniature filter gives a better final product.

Congratulations ZEROX.

We're the only standards in the polls and featured cars rarely used which is nice too

It was a great standard shot Shwaag. If I can just echo about the miniature filter. Your composition was perfect but the min. filter blurred out the part of the car that should be in the clearest focus. I like what the min. filter does for colouration (I used it in this competition as well) but the limitations it places on composition can be very challenging to overcome. About 1 in 50 times I think it might work does it actually produce what I was hoping for. A high EV cross processing filter would have done good things for your shot and may have produced a winner. Great job, I have no doubt you will win soon.

 

[Shwaag]

Thank you to everyone who gave me such wonderful constructive criticism!
I really needed some feedback and now I have an idea of what I should focus on next time, lower f#, cross process + high EV are some things I'll be sure to try. Thanks again!

No problem. Just experience and you'll make great progress.

Nothing felt better than winning two in a row. Though i'm lost in 2.0 this week. 👍
Also, thanks to both of my Mclaren too for propel me on winning both SSC.
