Are there any tips for editing that anyone would be willing to share, that are helping these photos look so real? I have a few photos of mine I think I could post, but I don't think they'd get a second look and they are missing some element that I can't put my finger on.
 
Yes, I can help you a bit. Bland(er) colors, not too much contrast, right location and car - 3 factors that will make your images realistic. ;)
 
To try and get a gauge on what I'm doing so far, how do these stack up?

These are photo's I've already taken, if I had to speculate on how to bring more realism, based on some feedback so far, I'd say better reflections, maybe tighter to the car in some cases?

Anyhow, I'm a sponge for feedback on ways to improve, overall the help from this forum has been immense in taking better photo's.👍






Thanks again!
 
The 1st and 2nd ones are actually pretty realistic, well done! Maybe a less extreme angle would make them more real. The 3rd one, not so real due to the lighting that Indy produces, I try to avoid photos in that location even tho I love Indy as a track. I hope you'll improve soon, keep it up! ;)👍

My current screen saver. Not quite up to the quality of the majority of photos in this thread (im looking at you Leeislee, NBdesignz, driftinziggy) but for me im really pleased!

Any comments of how to make this better are welcome, cant use any editing things so just whats available in GT!

Thanks 👍
 
Hey Driftin! I'm so loving that 3rd shot, it says "Ass kicking time!" Fully featured set, toning lighting, the gritty edge makes this set hard to deny.:)👍
 
Good work, haven't visited in a while and it's great to see the results of your efforts 👍
