Ferrari 599 GTO (and many others...)

[Mads Dreier]

Hey guys,

Was at Ring Knutstorp this friday at an Ferrari event....shot about 1300 pics and this is one of them...and one of me taking photos;-)

The 599 GTO iso such a beautiful car it almost hurts my eyes;-)

Best regards

Wow what an amazing shot...deeply showing the character of this pretty beast's front side with those shadings and other stuff. Oh, and nice job for making those patterns of the hood clearly visible from that specific angle.

 

[NoobMan DS]

Nice shot of the California in some fast action, too.

And...1300 shots? That's a lot...maybe you should show more of them to us!

P.S. - sorry for the double post! I accidentally posted the same message twice and decided to just split them into two instead, or else they just look weird. Any way that they can be merged?

holly postpro, Batman.

on both.

You have any more to show us? like it has been said, 1,300 pics are a lot!

 

[Punknoodle]

That GTO is amazing, and the shot is beautiful, so, time for more pics! On a side note, I really love the rainbow effects that get captured in the headlights sometimes...

most of them are good, pity that your postproduction is so... much.

I've never really been a big Ferrari fan, but those pics are good.
Ace work! 👍

Move this to the photography section. You deserve your own thread. 👍

You can do it via the 'thread tools' option at the top of the posting area or you can ask a moderator to do it for you instead.

Great photos by the way.👍

Thanks for the help :-)

BTW...here is a one of my non Ferrari pics...

 

[Syntax error]

Some very nice shots. I have to agree with Cano though, some of the pp is a little strong. I'm not a huge fan of the blacking out of the background so much, especially since the cars pop out from the scenery so much already. The first Fezza shot is my favorite of the bunch. 👍

The non-Ferrari shot is awesome as well. I like the post production on that one. The one thing that does bug me though is that the back of the car is missing.

I'm confused with your colour balance choices. The cooler blues and magentas are irregular, not sure where you're trying to go with them. One or two of them look like they're leaning towards a cross-processing look, but don't have the greens or highlights that the style "typically" has.

 

[Speedster502]

Mm. I know I like my shots to have deep shadows and quite a bit of contrast (even then sometimes I feel I'm on the limit of ruining some photos), but I feel yours are taken a step too far. The first shot you showed us was a prime example, the only really clear elements of the photo is the bonnet and headlights, you've lost a load of detail in the front bumper and around the rest of the car. I also agree with Syntax, the panned Camaro is actually really good, (not sure about the orange-ness to it but I can live with that), the only is that I really feel I need to see the back of the car in the shot too. But the shot itself looks lovely and crisp.

My favourite, out of the Ferrari's anyway is the second image of the Scud in the second post. If it didn't have that slightly over done orange-ness (and perhaps a bit too much vignette? I can't tell it might be just playing around with the blacks) it would be pretty much perfect in my eyes.

Anyway, keep posting more stuff and if you can, try and get involved in the competitions. I think it'd be good to see more people entering them. Oh and welcome to GTPlanet 👍

Too much editing for my liking, cant see half of the photos ( and yes my monitor is calibrated)... the photos are good, its a shame alot of the detail has been lost.

 

[GilesGuthrie]

I actually like your post production style, although I think you do overstep sometimes. Shots 4 and 9 from post 7 are a bit computer-gamey for my liking, but the triangular vignette on the 430 is excellent. And your ASCAR shot is excellent. Very "Days of Thunder".

[official whinge]Can you keep pictures down to no more than 900px on the long edge please?[/official whinge]

AMAZING photos!!! I've quoted this one because I'm a 599 fan, one of the best Ferrari's ever! Can't wait to tune it... in the game
