A little dark, but very cool... Excellent Blur effect, nice job.
Picking through the archives already?

I hope the wet Tsukuba track is ok. I thought it would add a nice touch. Please tell me if I'm cluttering up the thread. It seems you guys don't preview any other photos, just the final.

My entry, doesn't show the drift as well as I'd like, but I just like the angle.

I really like ATP's shot considering it's unedited.


Here's mine:

Final Entry

Lotus Carlton @ Autumn Ring​

The shot's nothing special, but it was a ball to drift!

Upon reading the message again, I figured it out, thus 'Wet Track shot', My bad!

Nice Shot es, I love those 'multi' color paintjobs. Great work, nice reflection too!

 

[ceiling_fan]

Haha, that reminds me of a funny thing that happened at SFGTP1:

On the replay it looked like a smooth, but unintentional drift, but in reality the DFP was all the way to the left, then all the way to the right, all the way to the left again, and then it was shakily stabilized. All of this was in about 3-4 seconds!

On that turn in a TVR, too.

 

[ceiling_fan]

...whoops, better read the rules next time.

Here is my little MGF. Actually a pretty easy and fun car to drift. Also, sorry about the small pic. Tried to follow the directions from another post on how to put the pictures in, but must have screwed up somehow.

Check out the Un-Edited Competition Week 22 - Open Thread.
If you look at posts starting at #32, this may also be your problem. It worked for my pictures, so I hope this is your problem also. By the way, what did you use to get your preview to 400x300.

Hi,

Just wanting to take part in this competition. Tried signing up on Imageshack.us yesterday but have been waiting 24hrs for my registration confirmation email. So as yet, i've not been able to log in and upload my pics...

Has anyone else experienced long wait times with Imageshck? Or should I just hold out and wait for the email from them? Just wanted to enter in time for this Euro Drift comp...

Cheers,

Mat

It's one of my only drift photo of a Euro.

Plus I find it stands out, that blur in GT4 really helpd because that blur system is like a curved blur which fits perfectly with this as I am "exiting the turn". Plus, the blinding light from only one lamp was pretty cool and I like how it was dark, because It emphasized the "night".

Again, it was unedited, So i'm pretty sure noone will like it.

Un-edited, is far better than some of the over-edited shots I've seen lately. I have seen quite a few where they used far too much contrast, making the shot look horrible.

Your shot is still in my top three, so far. (of course mine is first, I'm not biased or anything... lol)

You don't need to sign up to post pictures! Just go to the site, click browse and select the pic, resize it, uploading it and then copy the "hotlink for forums" into your post.

I love this shot, by messing with gamma and contrast, I got a comic book-esque look to the background stands and clouds​

Very nice work Swiss, your entries keep getting better!! I'm impressed!

 

[dickiecrickets1]

Thanks for the heads up 01GTP. I will have to start doing that in the future. Also, I am using MS Office picture manager to resize my photos, what is anyone else using?
