I used an aperture of 1.4, but it didn't have the effect I wanted, so I blurred the background in GIMP.​

that's a great entry there swiss! very creative. atlop's is quite good as well. the black and white suits the approach really well.
 


Am I allowed because of the text?​
 
I don't think TT is allowed in any comps, except for that one a while ago where it showed it in the rules.
 
well the cars part is open, so I assumed as long you followed the aperture rules i was golden. I don't have GT4 anymore. when my games were moved, my dad saw the beat up case and threw it out, game inside.

I'm gonna let it go. Consider it a sig for the pic. If anyone has an issue with this, let me know, but it's gonna stand.

Dunno if T is allowed, but I thought this'd make a good entry:

Not funny. I really wanted to enter this. Plus, my GT4 shot-taking ability is nill, I just can't do it anymore like i used to. I don't get how when a vehicles category is open you can't use bikes. it's not like I'm using an unallowed filter or that TT has a graphics upgrade that GT4 doesn't. If anything the rider is modeled almost poorly, and clips right through the bike during a hard lean, ruining the shot.

i just don't understand how when the vehicles category is open i can't use TT. it's limiting....
 
How about some one makes a comp in Tourist Trophy forum part?
 
because TT is nearly dead for the most part. not many people play it. you think these boards get slow sometimes....
 
Won't it live it up?
 
I'll talk to a few of the people there and see if any of them would be interested. If they are, I'll talk to a few of the people here to see how hard it is to host a comp.
