Nice idea and shot! Maybe if you brightened it up a little and added more colour to it it would look better.



Thanks Freddy!!

I was looking the picture all over again and yes, you are right, with a little more bright would look even better. Anyway, I was having the PC monitor with a 80% brightness and I placed it on 100% and the picture was like reborn, hehe. But, yes, a little more brightness, but I think its to late to make changes:guilty:

GTSilent; it looks to me like you didn't save the image on "Super Fine" quality, since even though it's been resized, I can see the pixelation. I'm not sure the picture needs a whole lot more brightness; you would lose some of the detail. A bit more saturation however would really get the image to pop out at people. This is all just my opinion, though :)

You are fully right. That's one of my first shots in GT4, it has a long time in my memory card. At that time I didnt have much experience with photomode.

Actually, I was playing with a Chevelle and I saw on the distance that the computer with the Mustang went out of the track, then she tried to come back and hit all the cones:sly: .

I though: "I have to take a picture of that" and I was a couple of hours doing it, so I love that picture, but was never use for a competition and I wanted to give it a try in this one.

But now I'm taking all the pictures with the super fine quality option selected :)

Thanks for all the help guys, I'm serious.

 
Yes, I can do it too, but I did'nt want to!:scared:(that's all of the blur and stuff...) So here it is:

FINAL ENTRY!


Preview Image
 
PERFECT BALANCE
A bit over the top, i'd say. you should have made the focal B&W(or whaever its called) not so sharp, its liek a circle around the car.

Besides what PB said about the extreme glow, your picture is really tiny.... if it were me I wouldn't resize below 50%.
 
Wow, 440! Those wheels looks huge!!!
Just a couple of small things, the radial blurs looks (to me) just the tiniest bit off.
Either that or your coming up to a corner and the curve has made it look just a little odd.
And the second thing that bugs me is when you blow it up full size, there is a little bit of fuzziness up the top, which looks odd, because everything else is blurred.
I know, I'm nitpicking, but I'm just trying to help you get the best pics possible.
Good luck, BTW. :D

EDIT: Hey, there are Google-Ads for new and used Mitsubishi Lancers in my post!

It looks like that first turn of NY...I think thats why its bending, I think its great.

I agree, its a brilliant pic, I'm just trying to help.
Speaking of brilliant pics... j/k :lol:
I updated my entry. I realised that because I adjusted the contrast so much that the quality had gone way down so I've cleaned up some textures and added the tiniest motion blur to the background. Enjoy.
 
Competition closed

The respective polls will be up within an hour or two, I'm just on my way out for a few quick errands :)

Yeah, I agree that the radial blur is off. I could'nt move the focal point to a position that looked correct, so that's as close as I could get it. Thinking back, I probably could have made a longer image and done the blur and than cropped the image, but I had already spent too much time on it and I did'nt want to do it over again. And yes, those wheels are the big bling blings! And I don't know where all of those dots came from in the top section, but I blurred them a little and thats why the top half looks a little more fuzzy. I obviously still need to perfect my methods, but it does'nt look too shabby I suppose.:)
