congratulations on getting the flash drive :D you have a good choice in car! (Evo 4 Rally) keep up the good work 👍 :) could you check out my gallery and comment there please?
 
Ah nice start. Yes the pictures, when transfered to become darker, the only way I've found to cure it is to brigthen the pics up whilst taking them. (Exposure +0.7 or something)

Stop by my gallery soon. ;)
 
Those are some nice photos for your first. My favorites are the Golf R32, especially the last two. The other set I like are the JGTC RX-7 shots in Shiyuba. The only thing I suggest is to play around with saturation. Your photos are alittle bleak in visual appearance. Saturation will make the colors in your image more intense and more visually appealing to the eye. Other than that minor adjustment, you have some great shots with nice framing/angles. If you have some spare time please drop by my gallery and leave a comment :cheers:
 
Those shots are straight from the game, I'll have a play around with saturation and other effects on future shots :)
 

BMW LMR
​

I had a play with the saturation. I also had a fiddle with the "threshold" effect on a couple of images (hence why they're black and white). Also applied a "melting" effect to one of the Asparadrink shots (refer post #1) - looks like rain on the camera lens!​
 
Some nice shots there Sharky! 👍 Keep it up!
 
Thanks man :D

Got to make myself a banner now :)
 
Nice update! I like the Lotus Europa alot, especially thumbnails 2 and 4. I like the 2nd BMW LMR Thumbnail, real unique shot. Keep up the good work!
 
not bad at all. i like the idea of the 'misfit' and the chevy truck. keep up the good work dude.
 
Well, I've been a bit slack and haven't updated for ages, so here's a triple update!

Raybrig NSX (no idea why some of these are way dark)
​

Xanavi Hiroto GT-R (IMO the best-looking JGTC GT-R)
​

Ford Model T ("Chitty Chitty Bang Bang", more of a GT4 pisstake than anything)

​

Yes, that Model T is ACTUALLY drifting (and doing a one-wheel burnout) :D​

The shots where the Model T is in the air were brought about by a glitch with one of the Monaco walls (it ended jumping straight up at about 10km/h) ;)​
 
Did you actually unlock the Model T? I'm jealous. >_>

I will second the liking of the 'Misfit' Rally Car (1st one especially). The 'funny looking black-and-white' (to be technical) ones in the most recent update are nifty also. Don't know what to say too much since I'm not a professional photo guy.

Good shots overall then ^^ Might have to get back into photography then...
 
I would say dump the high threshold black and white images.
 
*smirks*
Yes, I did unlock the Model T :D

I decided to make all the Model T photos black and white, because, well, colour cameras didn't exist back then, did they? :lol:

TVR&FF: Personally, I think they look quite cool, although they are a bit strong on the black/white contrast (if you get what I mean).

Next update I'll have a play with some other effects.
 
Oh yes, about what TVR&FF said about those images: I meant they look cool in the thumbnails, but most aren't much to look at close up >_> (like the NSX in the most recent for example)

</notpostwhoring, I swear>
 
The reason I said dump them, is because of these 2 reasons:

*They look out of touch in a bad way.
*It is too easy and simple too do in a bad way.
 
Yoshi: Indeed they do. They'd look good as avatars, though.

TVR&FF: Fair point. It is very difficult to get the right threshold value - get it wrong and the whole balance of contrast goes out the window. :|
 
Nice pics, but why does the Raybrig look like it's in the jungle sort of?

Nice pics, keep up the good work!

But it is not easy to get a perfect balance between exposure and contrast.
 
I know.

GT 4Ever: It's one of the Japanese Photo Travel locations. Starts with S, I think.
 
I just noticed the 1 wheel Model t, that's a laugh how did you do that?
 
It involves the inside wall at Monaco's first hairpin. The rest, you figure out ;)
 
The roof shot on the Xanavi Hiroto GT-R is so unique. It's great that you are looking for new angles and new shots. Very impressed, well done 👍
 
Lupo GTi Cup Car
​


(My photo-editing software sucks, I wish my computer could run Photoshop)​


GT4_Rule: :D Getting all gold on the S Licence wasn't actually as hard as I was expecting... ;) Once I golded S15, the rest wasn't too tricky (but still hard).​
 
I really like the battle shots with the Jag and Lotus.
 
👍 Glad you liked it.

British GT Series. Had racing exhaust and mean black five-spoke rims. Otherwise stock.

:)
 
why does the first lupo pic look very loft sided ? it looks like u just flipped the car and got hit on the front left side of the car or like a log fell onto it.
