please do not feel me being cruel on you, but the first thing coming to me from your shot is that it looks like the scene of a traffic accident...which IMO is anything BUT Godzilla

The third shot:

It really looks like in the movies!

I really like your shot. Partial filter works in the night. So, no comment.

feedback please

I don't see the action happening in the photo. It looks boring. Even if you add tilt shift lens/miniature filter, it won't work. Try doing it on the ground. Also,

i think this failed where my 8-Carlton shot failed as well, the composition is too spread out and not too unified.

+1.

Feedback please

I though it said only road cars not race cars or road vs. race car.

From MusicalArtist over my Carlton shot

Quality over Quantity. You did have a lot of Carltons, but, the photo isn't balanced very well. It just isn't a very unified composition.

do you think either of these would have done better

 

[mattmflok]

do you think either of these would have done better

my personal preference would go for the bottom one as this would fill the gap as pointed out by jus, but i cannot say how will it fare as i am not the masta himself

I think these two fell into the same trap of the darker car being eaten by the scenery

 

[mattmflok]

It did specifically forbid Super GT's but that was the 24 hour car, which i see the major flop is being on the wrong side of the photo

1. Your point is invalid in the second photo because there isn't any really visible scenery for either car to dissappear into.

2. You must know little about artistic photography effects, because, in both shots, if the darker car was brighter, the photo would have been ruined. It can be bad if done incorrectly, but the effect was done correctly in both.

i admit i have zero knowledge about artistic photography:tdown:, thank you for your lesson anyway.👍

Photo #6 isn't very good. It is boring, very over-exposed, the headlights flare a lot, an it is really blurry.

 

[Aragam]

^and yet it made the poll and yours didn't

 

[MusicalArtist]

^and yet it made the poll and yours didn't

And yet I actually get paid to make artwork in real life and I am not the judge of this competition.

Just because mine didn't make the poll doesn't mean that it is not as good as a photo that didn't make the poll, it just means that the judge didn't think it was as good, and that might be very subjective.

 

[Aragam]

That's correct, it's the judges decision so you might as well stop complaining about it

 

[ShaolinMasta]

My English isn't so good but I will try to give you an answer
Do not worry if your photos have not been put to a vote
I have to say that the choice was not easy, because I like the pictures you sent me. I had to pick 10 (eventually 11 ) best shots.

It's a good shot. I like that you want to do something unusual 👍
I do not like the fact that cars are too close to the edge of the picture
Also ,I would have made ​​a crop and cut picture a little from top and bottom.

I think it's overexposed. And I do not like arrangement of the camera

Great shot ,imo . Nothing else to say . 👍

I think it's too dark .

It's dark a little bit . Also I don't like composition
Place that you chose for the shooting is too far away from cars


Thank you all for taking part in the competition !
Good luck next time ! 👍

Oh alright, i wish lol, i voted for the two white R34s just because its an awesome shot and deserves credit as such its just a shame its in this tough poll, it has to be said thought that GTR R33/R34 is probably the best shot of this year if not of last as well:tup:

 

[f1_stig]

Great shot ,imo . Nothing else to say . 👍

if its a great shot how come it didn't make it

 

[Jacob]

My entry, wasnt expecting to get anywhere with it but could i get some feedback anyway?

Place that you chose for the shooting is too far away from cars

So, It looks like a car crash that was taken from too far away and it's too dark. Ok.
