Catastrophe's Photo Addict Gallery (Update 17/5/11 Zonda R 3rd batch!)

catastrophe · Mar 25, 2011

Hi guys,

I love photography and love using the photomode in GT5. I've taken a lot of photos from replays and photo travel but it's the first time I post them here. Haven't really came up with a theme yet as I endeavor to take shots of all premiums in the game. All photos with tweaks done in Lightroom.

All comments are welcome!

Here's my entire gallery so far:

Can anyone please tell me why my flickr pics can't show up?

Leicht · Mar 25, 2011

use BBcode and you can just paste it directly to post, no need to insert the <img> thingy

catastrophe · Mar 25, 2011

Thanks! That worked perfectly!

Leicht · Mar 26, 2011

I like your MB Shot, it's so clear and the last one too

ashes619 · Mar 26, 2011

Great work. Lots of different pics which makes it interesting 👍

VeyronR8 · Mar 26, 2011

Really, really good photos, nice work.

Grand Prix · Mar 26, 2011

Awesome Gallery so far. 👍 The wheel shot stands out most for me. The X1 shots are very cool also.

catastrophe · Mar 26, 2011

Thanks guys for the comments! I still got lots more I haven't uploaded yet, working on them now...

I've tried many angles for shots but now starting to lack ideas for more unique shots after taking about 700 photos lol...

Rossticles · Mar 26, 2011

That close-up X2010 shot from the front left is awesome! It's very detailed. I like its shininess too.

grrlpurple · Mar 26, 2011

Nice use of angles there - great stuff

ceiling_fan · Mar 26, 2011

^Agreed. Loving the 'low-to-the-ground' camera angle. Makes cars look so good. I like the R8 shot, the tilt gives it a nice zing. Did you use the miniature filter or are you adding a blur in photoshop? I think the R8 would be a real stunner with a zoom blur.

Just used the miniature filter in GT5, only used lightroom for adjustments and that blur is actually smoke from the tires lol.

gotta love those lambos! 👍

lol I get to see Lambos almost everyday at work since there's a Lambo service center right opposite our office. Really hard to catch a good pic of those tho and the background sucks compared to ones in GT5 :sly:

Also saw a Ferarri right outside our office yesterday, too bad someone is driving it and don't wanna look like a stalker by pointing a SLR right in their face lol.
