Nice Silver arrow you got there. :D I like all three. Sense of speed is huge in #2.

Thanks mate!:) I'm glad you liked it, some other work is coming soon;)

I'm with GP, I like all three 👍
I always like the texture you get in your photos.

oh, and interesting choice on using a square frame! works really well especially with the second picture.

Thank you Mini!:) I got 6 photos to do, did them all, but decided that quantity is not worth the quality, so posted only 3, but best of the best! I think you like the texture because of the amount of grain I put on almost every shot and, besides, every photo from the 3rd update is HDR. Every. I just try to keep in mind that I need reality, and not bright cartoon colors with crazy amount of details:) but I'm not sure... if you describe your feeling I'll try to improve or at least know what's good and what is not;)

Oh my god, first photo of C9 is just astonishing. Love the atmosphere!

atmosphere, yes... I think that is the only thing I can do at least not bad! Thank you!

very good work as ever man, the C9 is an amazing car I also just bought it to shot some pics...

thank you friend! put a link to your gallery in your signature so everyone can easily access your gallery easier:tup: looking forward to seeing your C9 shots!

Hi! Nice gallery! I'm a big fan of some of your more unusual photoshop stuff, such as the wide angle panoramas, they're fresh and different and I'm really enjoying seeing it! Your HDR stuff is great to see as well, although *some* of it is just a touch overdone for my liking.


Would you mind directing me to the person who made that Nurburgring weather shot? It's really well done, I'd love to find out who did it!

Edit: Nevermind, I was browsing the Photomode section (not galleries) and stumbled across it. Thanks anyway :)

Thank you my friend! It means a lot, that you visit my gallery! About the guy - that is just the thread here in Photomode, but he has some good works at devianart or smth. One panorama is coming soon definetely... I think you'll come across the theme description:) About HDR - as I've mentioned in reply to MiniMarco - each set: Alfa, Camaro, C9, engine heat shots, coming F1'10 shots, panoramas etc. are HDR... I just don't make them as LF-A on the first page because don't see necessity for it. Some particular cars - may be. But not all.
Anyway, thank you! Hope to see you soon here!

Galleries like this make me want to delete mine...

:bowdown: :bowdown: :bowdown:

Some of you guys and girls here are super talented. There's not a lot I can say that hasn't already been said. Pretty much every one of your photos is amazing in one way or another.

This whole HDR thing really impresses me too, it adds so much to the photos, in such a subtle way. I'm going to have to look into it.
I've just started toying with PS and doing a bit of trial and error on a few of my GT5 shots. But heck, I can't get anywhere this sort of quality!

Great work 👍
 
Nice update, i like all three of them but nr two is my fav.
Thank you Ghertel! Thanks for visiting, 'feedbacking' and liking!

You too kind and too modest! One year ago I couldn't imagine I can create smth like this... today I don't like many of the works I did... we are making progress if we like doing smth. Thank you... it's a pleasure people like my shots.
 
So... for your judgment. It's an HDR ponarama, made from 4 exposures each for 5 angles. Effects and processing - blur, vigneting, lightroom processing, then again blur, glow, work with layers, color balance, another work with layers.... effects, effects, brushes:scared:
it is hard to make a slight effect that you can notice only on high-res picture and after applying judge correctly... but it changes the whole picture completely. Even 1 pixel blur makes the photo look different. I think that is one of my best works. May be you won't like it, but I made the thing that I wanted to make and I'm happy with it! It's not like real photo, not like GT5 shot and not like painting. That is the way I see it - details, smooth surfaces, atmosphere... The moment caught in a static picture, a frozen second, that reveals the mood of the minute, the hour and the whole day. I wish I'd be there

Thank you!

Cold and warm...

Looks like a lot of work went into it, but it's worth it. It looks great and has a nice feel. I wish I was at a cafe having a coffee and I can look at views like this. It's like the water is almost moving, very cool

I wish I could see a bigger picture, flickr only lets me see 1024 maximum.
 
I qutie like that, the sky is nice and the composition is pretty decent too. The dramatic action works well to create some interest in serene environment. It's almost like a calm scenic day on the top half and all action on the bottom half.
 
Stunning panoramas. You really have an eye for detail to get them looking that good. No sign of the stitching, and to get all of those pictures developed right in the Ahrweiler HDR... good skills man 👍
 
Thank you guys! I'll reply to each comment later, sorry:( got tons of work to do... here it is one more experimental shot wityh Celica Rally Car. Decided that merging some real life photos and GT5 is good... please, express your opinions wether you like it or not. It is very important!:) maybe I overworked the picture... now I don't know... I had to know many new things from photoshop:)


Celica Rally 1-1-2 by Rocking70s
 
:lol: For a second there I thought My GT5 was the no rain in Toscana Limited Edition Nice work on the reflection too
 
sems4arsenal, boozybloke, GPR, NBDESIGNZ, SVX, Grand Prix thanks to you friends, I have lots of work to do now, so I won't have much time for posting:( may be tomorrow, or today's evening some new shots will come!
 
Fantastic collection of works you've got here! I really like the sets on post #5, 13, and 17. And interesting panoramas.

For the Audi's I think the contrast is better on the first one but second one has slightly better composition. Overall I do like the first one more.

I love the classic mini poster. It reminded me of a jigsaw puzzle I once saw with a classic mini printed on cork board.

Thank you! Audi shots as many others after are experimental... I just think that it's not VERY interesting to make ordinary panned cars driving on Nurburg... there must be smth more, that's why many of my pictures may seem freaks comparing them with other masr-galleries, where there are tons of epci sbrilliant works with professional color and composure work:)

Really like the Maserati shoots!
Looks like a potrait. :D
Lancia is also the best. 👍

Thank you! You're speaking about Maserati panorama?:)


Hey, guys, it seems Celica doesn't appeal to you?)

You've really got the panoramas worked out, haven't you? That is a great set, very well done and really interesting to view. The Celica in the rain pictures look good, but if I'm being critical the rain itself could do with a 'deeper' feel, it looks kind of like just a layer over the top of the photo. Not that I'm saying I could do better mind you, and as I say; they do look good. 👍
 
That last panorama is amazing! The distortion is just awesome, by looking at it quickly you think it's going sideways. The car could be something else though, as I'm not a huge fan of American muscle cars.. but still, the pictures are excellent. :)
 
Wow nice set. 👍 👍 Really like the Mach 1 in white also. I've since painted mine in Pearl Yellow :D
