Final Entry



My interpretation of this theme. 👍​
 
That is very impressive Ray, top notch stuff once again! 👍
 
final entry​





I used an aperture of 1.4, but it didn't have the effect I wanted, so I blurred the background in GIMP.​
 
JKcreativeworks, nice shot and cool to see another person with a cool signature (on the pic) ! 👍
 
A lot of impressive entries this week! 👍
 
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.
 
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.
 
lol
Click to expand...
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....
 
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.
