Mine didn't make it. I think I was too late. Any pointers?

 

[Lankay]

Woo I made it to a competition poll after two tries! Good thing I changed my photo

I think it was the warm filter that ruined it, it made the red car blend in too much with the background (if no filter is used, the daytona road course and F430 Rubino Metalizzato combo should be quite distinct), and it did look a bit lacking in speed.

I see what you mean. Didn't look at it like that

Hey guys as always tough tough desicions I had to make but as you can see Quality of pictures this week was really high ,however feel free to post your shots and I'll tell you why you didn't make it .I won't however say how close your were to the poll as I feel this is pointless (might be an exception for one shot though).

gordongt you were not too late however,your shot lacked motion ,car seems to be parked in a way,I feel you needed to over expose the shot a bit and use Panning mode 2 with shutter of 1/60 .Still a very good shot and very relevant to the theme ,over all very good effort

A lot of good stuff this week!


I feel a bit weird about asking, but any pointers?

First, Partial Filter, in my opinion, killed your shot.
Second, give some motion to it!

Yay, no votes on my OFC shot!

Like it's said above,Patrial filter shots really rarely work,plus you probably shot this with panning mode 3 so there is no motion and lets face it a F1 Car and Daytona you need some Speeeed. .but anyway kudos for.trying something different and Ferrari f1 at daytona is very relevant to Prologue players

The partial filter is tricky, you have to consider the background (or foreground depending on where the car is) and even more importantly the colour of the car. Most colours make the car look seriously out of place in a partial filter shot but there are times when it does work well. Oh and a shot of the F1 from the sides going full speed at daytona would make it better 👍

 

[flip55]

I appreciate the feedback guys! I'll keep at it

 

[DigitalBaka]

Good snaps here. It was tough to choose between the B&Ws of the California and the SL.

@flip55: It looks to me like you've bumped the exposure time way down. To get the motion that has been mentioned try the shot again with panning mode 3, 1/60 time and maybe a higher f-stop to get a bit more of the car focused.

i just noticed that this should fit this week's SSC perfectly XD

 

[DigitalBaka]

Digital Bika you had the Nissan at Eiger Tunnel shot right.

Yep, sure did. Wanted to use something I didn't think anyone else would. Didn't quite get it right though. Or at least competitive enough this round.

Like I said I won't say how close any shots were to the Poll aside from one shot which is yours ,it was literraly the last shot to be excluded .I don't it doesn't make you feel better and there isn't anything I didn't like about it but it was a coin toss between you and 2-3 others ,on anyday I could have picked your shot.

So just wanted to say your shot is great and deserves to be in the Poll 👍

 

[Lankay]

Okay I just looked at the poll results so far and wow! My picture is tied first Beginners luck
