I haven't been around this section of the forum much lately, and boy have I missed these sorts of photos! All round stunning stuff as usual. I love that I can now see some updates in GTSport's Activity Feed too :)

Regarding your personal life I'm glad to hear you're OK physically after your seizure; do you know what is causing them? I can only imagine being stressed and anxious at home isn't helping with things like this occurring, it sounds like your home life could be affecting your health in a very negative way. I saw you sent me a message on Xbox Live where you mentioned becoming a games tester, this sounds like a good area to pursue and could enable you to move out and start building your life.

Whereabouts are you based, out of interest? Being in the games industry I may have some friends who have openings at their studios that I could recommend you for. I can't promise anything but it's worth a shot.

Those are some amazing shots, Jamie! I'm particularly liking photos #4 (smooth lighting and shadows), #11 (great camera angle, contrast and toning) and #14 (composition, white balance, reflections). 👍

When it comes to personal life, I obviously wish you all the best and it's merely a matter of time until you move out and live your life. Without needing to go into much detail, I'll leave you a quote by Steve Jobs:

"Remembering that I'll be dead soon is the most important tool I've ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life.

Almost everything - all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure - these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important.

Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart.

No one wants to die. Even people who want to go to heaven don't want to die to get there. And yet, death is the destination we all share. No one has ever escaped it, and that is how it should be, because death is very likely the single best invention of life. It's life's change agent. It clears out the old to make way for the new."

- Steve Jobs

Go out there and conquer the world. ;)

Thanks for popping by lads. 👍
 
Gorgeous set as always buddy 👍 . Love how you captured the Cobra's curves. Hope all is well with you <3
 
Those Scapes shots really show some technical skills, the lighting and colours are perfect. I also love the low-down shot of the back of the Cobra at Willow Springs, although I still detest racing on that track :lol:
 
The two shots you took on the Berlin spot (Reichstag) are my favorites. Simply because of the fact that this is my riding spot when I'm out with my BMX :D

And I never thought a green cobra would look this nice! :eek:👍

Hopefully you also enjoyed the DB11 update. Aside from that, thanks for the comment and visit.
 
I love the abstract style in shots #1 and #6. As for the rest, I feel like the colour of the car really compliments the blue sky, and I like how you've composed shots #3, #7, #13 and #14 to show off this contrast. I love the idea behind #11; it proves testament to your unique style. All in all a fantastic, diverse set of pictures! :D
 
I'm enjoying the heavily saturated colours in a lot of these, they really bring out the yellow of the car. I think my favourite is number 5 because it's such a simple idea but the composition is perfect with the foreground blur in there!
 
Stunning work on the last two sets, @Pebb! My personal favourites have to be shots #1 and #5 from the penultimate set and #11 and #15 from the latest one. 👍

I am just glad my latest GT Sport update was easier to work on, compared to my Escort RS Cosworth - FM7 update. Sure I prefer the Escort RS Cosworth more in real life. But if FM7’s photomode had more options to tweak, then the way FM7 handles sunlight wouldn’t be an issue.

1 and 11 are phenomenal, I have no idea how you even got that effect on them! It's interesting to see your take on a rally car in Scales mode too, I struggle to get good shots of them when static.

You've also done a great job at matching the livery to the background and the shapes of the car to the surroundings, something most people wouldn't even begin to consider. This is next level stuff!
 
Amazing shots! Each shot is unique in its own way. I like unusual angles in 4 and 5 (dynamics in the picture is incredible thanks to the flying gravel). Long exposure, close up pics... Brilliant! I really like your creative approach and like that every time I visit your gallery I find something new and unusual :cheers:

The light trails you see in front of the car was caused by a shutter speed of 1-15. While for the second shot mentioned by you, I was able to produce a sandstorm by using a low shutter speed.

Thanks for spending a few moments to appreciate the shot compared to some of the members on gran-turismo.com. 👍​

You're welcome. About your last set, well..I think the shots speak for themselves. They all do perfect justice to the car's intricate shapes and the composition in each one is nothing short of excellent. A real pleasure to look at them.​
 
Another beautiful set. I like how you've captured the angles of the car; I also really like the abstract shots, they're a feast for the eyes!

Before I comment on your last set I would like to say that your GT-R VGT set is simply amazing! Pure art.

Speaking about the last set, I think that you very well managed to convey the dynamics and atmosphere of the competition, thanks to the different and not quite standard angles and camera positions. I also like that some pictures are artistic and realistic at the same time. Great work !

I hope all of the thumbnails loaded for you. When I first posted up my racing update all of the shots would load. However when I look at the update on a tablet a small portion of shots fail to load.
 
Great! Always nice to see more of your unique style. My favourite shot is probably #2. And again, awesome angle in shot #7.

Sorry about some of the thumbnails not showing up in my racing update. Also thanks for the comment and visit.
 
Fantastic set. It always amazes me how you manage to retain so much creativeness in every shot you take. My favourite would have to be #17 though, love the abstract feel the shot has and the bokeh effect in the background.
