Thanks guys. Glad to hear from you Franz:)

I feel like I may have temporarily outdone myself with the SLR shots. I tried getting some other photoshoots done over the last couple of days and haven't been very successful with much of anything.

I did do this Ruf shot tonight. I got a little lost with the editing and ended up with this. I like it. Not sure what the prevailing opinion will be;)

I don't like it, it feels too basic for my liking, but I say this because it looks like a basic filter.
 
This shot is rather more of what you'd normally post, you kind of focus more on artistic shots then clean shots and I likt that, I like the shot as well, nice feeling to it 👍
 
Huh, I didn't even know this was a filter in PS until you guys said it was. Well, that will save me time next time I want to do this:)
 
It looks like the sort of thing I'd have a poster of in my garage :D I like it, if only it was available in an extremely high-definition version to print out on a 2'x3' poster.
 
Not too many people use the artistic filters, but some of them are quite neat if you use them in moderation
Agree! Btw C_F, if you made it manually I have to say it's correct, a good job. I think that kind of basic shapes is great for web, banner... and other.

Thanks guys. Yeah, I did that manually as I didn't know there was a filter that did a similar effect. Oh well, live and learn;)

Next update is the Renauly Maxi 5






 
I really like the Ruf shot, and the 3rd Rally one. They would both make good posters, keep it up!
 
Nice update man, I like the Renault shots! 👍 I particularly like the different lighting effects you have used in the three pics, the third is my fave! 👍 Keep 'em coming! :dopey:
 
Yessss, that's what I want! I'm pleased to see that beautiful photos Cod_F. The first two images are quasireal, with very complex textures but very cleaned and defined at the same time. The vigneting, blur and other effects you used are very natural imo, and makes them less """standard""" (Notice I've used a lot of " to write that word here :lol:) and more visually interesting.

The last two images are also great. The tarmac of that track is a good choice to do a rallying ambient. About the 3rd image I've to say the sky, the clouds, are a little bad textured because the color variation I think. The lighting is also a bit "rare", like an excesive dark or something.

The last photo... I'm loving it. The shadowed view and escene are impressive but the best for me are the men on the left. That kind of details makes the difference between an excellent work and a... very excellent work? :lol:

Keep doing so admirable shots mate ;)

The photos are great... the first two have a great sense of detail in them, and the vignetting (sp?) cut out the right amount of the image. 👍
 
Wow, love those shots C_F. They all are different but all relate to each other. Love the colours in all of them, especially the last. Fantastic work. Keep it up. 👍
 
I like them alot, although:

In the first one, you forgot the blur the windows, just select the window and apply a blur 👍 And the car could be cleaned up a bit though I don't know wether cleaning up is really your thing.

But the very last one, my word, B-E-A-utiful 👍

Omg.. totally amazing. perfectly focused etc! keep it up:tup:

(and check my update too:P)

Thanks:) I'm not happy with the RUF shot now that I know I could have done it in a much easier fashion;)

nice update:)

Thanks:)

Nice update man, I like the Renault shots! 👍 I particularly like the different lighting effects you have used in the three pics, the third is my fave! 👍 Keep 'em coming! :dopey:

Thanks mag. I try to use effective lighting in all my shots. Most of the time a simple gradient gets the result, some other times it requires some secret techniques;)

Impressive Cod!

Thanks LG> I hope you like the next update as well.

Thanks Alex. Yeah, the third shot has messed up colours in the sky. I tried to fix it but couldn't get it to match the rest of the shot so I left it as is;) I really liked the last shot due to the spectators being in it as well. I used a "lomo" effect on that shot to get the interesting color tone.

The photos are great... the first two have a great sense of detail in them, and the vignetting (sp?) cut out the right amount of the image. 👍

Thanks kraft:)

I love the last and 2nd shot.

THanks TVR:)

Wow, love those shots C_F. They all are different but all relate to each other. Love the colours in all of them, especially the last. Fantastic work. Keep it up. 👍

Thanks drift2xs. As I said in response to alex's post I used a lomography effect in the last shot. The original was just screaming for it.

I like them alot, although:

In the first one, you forgot the blur the windows, just select the window and apply a blur 👍 And the car could be cleaned up a bit though I don't know wether cleaning up is really your thing.

THanks ultra. I didn't realize I missed the window until you mentioned it;)

Omg.. totally amazing. perfectly focused etc! keep it up:tup:

(and check my update too:P)

Thanks, and will do!


Now for the next update (hey, when my wife is out of town I get a lot of time to play video games;)) I decided to jump on the bandwagon of creating a picture cut into slices in PS.

I decided to take my fulled modded DB9 to the test track. The feel of the shots is similar to the SLR update I did recently but the pictures are distinct I believe. BTW, the third shot was just filler;)

Aston Martin build one of the most beautiful cars in the globe. That update is it. The tone is excellent, and I love the first one the most. Just incredible.

Salu2.alexwrc
 
Agreed, beautiful update once again 👍

Oh and, you forgot to blur the wheels in the second picture :D
 
:D This update is tight! Great pics man. I like the colouring, and finish. The second is my favourite! Keep 'em coming! :dopey:
 
Woah.. those aston martin shots are near real!! good job!
 
You have done it again C_F. You have taken this great looking car and did the impossible. Made it look better. I love that style, similar to the suberb SLR shots you did. It is very clean and I love the colour and blur. Love the first one the most, I might have to save it. :) Keep up the fantastic work. 👍
 
OH MY GOD!!!!!!!!!!! The Aston Martin set is just BEAUTIFUL!!! I give this one 5 stars, congrats mate for this wonderful update. More, more, bring more soon:)
