The Realistic Photo Thread

[RandomCarGuy17]

@ RandomCG17, very nice angle, I love it.


One thing missing, though: blur. It needs way more blur. Blur the scenery a bit, and I'd love that photo more than any other Ford GT photo I've seen here yet.

Thanks I guess I could try some more blur next time.

I'm not saying it's wrong to post pictures without blur, I'm saying that I prefer it.


Like this:

You can feel free to post whatever, and don't think of my opinion as a criticism; your shot is lovely, I'm just stating my opinion, which is based on a personal choice.


I prefer blurred photos because it gives it a bit of a visceral action shot sensation.

It's not something that's specific to GT5, either...

...Or even motorsports.


Sometimes, a little bit of "action" can go a long way in artistic photos.

 

[RandomCarGuy17]

^Andrew, I got your point before. I'm just taking as an opinion/suggestion for what I can do in the future and nothing more. You don't have to go into deep detail explaining it. I take whatever suggestions I get from people on here as an opportunity to help improve myself usually.

 

[ITCC_Andrew]

I just don't want to seem like an ass; I'm explaining that it's opinion, and it's something that I've grown quite fond of. I'm not into the whole "show car" scene. I'm interested in going fast, and that's really about it. I don't care how much money people spend on paint, or things; I want to see the car and the danger.



So, I'm not putting you down, just infusing an idea into your head, and everyone else's head, so we can continue to see the high action shots I prefer. 👍


Just clarifying why I'm mentioning something I'd prefer about a photo that's otherwise perfect.............


On with the thread.

Thanks for your feedback MoMo! Your Bull is great to. I really like the 2nd and 3rd shots (in the 3rd i think the vignette its a bit to dark in the top right though =p )

Note: To all the new members taking photos in GT5, here's a tip..

...start by playing around with the panning modes and shutter speed.

The above shot was taken using panning mode3 and a shutter speed of 60fps, don't forget to focus on the car, and also don't get to close to the car either.
You can adjust exposure too, but not by much in most cases.
Editing does help, but is not strictly necessary.

Hope this helps.👍

Thank you Momo, the GTR AMS Alpha Omega was insanely fast, easily reaching over 160mph well before Flugplatz, prone to airborne even with 1725kg weight My favorite airborne shot is the one with sideway angle
