Well since everyone else has a gallery I thought I would just join along in the fun. I am going to only post a few pictures I have been working on. But there will be more to come. I typically go for the more realistic "motorsports" type photos. But at times I jump to the artsy side of things. So expect some variety with cars and composition.

Thats it for now. Comments are much appreciated. See ya guys.
 
really like the last one, great stuff. click the link in my sig to visit my gallery if you want.
 
Pretty good, every single photo!

First one I think the background's a bit over-saturated, but the car looks great.

Second one, the back of the car (apart the awful wing) came out well, very realistic.

But third... is my fav. Very artistic, nice angle, very well cropped, love it.
 
Great update i love the top alfa pic:tup:

swing by my gallery if you have the time
 
Awesome start to your gallery. You definately capture the realistic type of photos. I would consider cleaning some of the jagged lines up, namely around the wheel wells and window perimeters. You can eliminate this problem by using the smudge tool. Set it to around 6-9% intensity and run it over the troubled edges. This should smooth them right out for you. Other than that, you have a nice looking gallery.
 
not a bad start at all. i like the civic pic except for the jagged lines. but i like the feel of the photos altogether. it looks like amateur photos taken track side. good job
 
Great start man. I really like your updates. As far as jagged edges go, streetz is right on the money. Also, for black and white shots, a little more contrast would work wonders. Keep up the suave work man ;)👍
 
I like your sense of composition. That Motul civic is amazing. The NSX seems to have been done just right. Very soothing. As for the Z, you seem to have taken a slightly different approach. Is is stunning.
 
Excellent shots, I love the NSX LM, Minolta 88c-v, 300ZX and your civic at Laguna. I'm loving them. Can I make a request?



Did you know that you can add a wing on the NSX LM and give it more downforce than it comes with?

Thanks, and wow I didnt know that. I thought all the race cars pretty much had fixed wings. Hmm. And if you or anyone has a request just shoot and I will do my best to show you what you want.

And most importantly thank you everyone for your criticism, it is very much appreciated. I am just having a blast taking these pics, and the majority of them coming out to my liking. So much fun, it makes me feel productive. I shall go comment your guy's albums now.

First off, Your welcome.

Second, yeah you can add I think its 10-20 more levels, not quite sure but I know it increases the stability quite abit also with abit of LSD I came to run some pretty neat times at the 'Ring.

Third, My request is a Camaro LM color of your choice and track of your choice. Now show me some magic buddy.

Also if you check my gallery take time to look through my pages through stuff that I have tried and evolving on and learning to perfect.



:cheers:
 
Hey DLRgian I took these for you. I hope I haven't disappointed you. I added bit of detail to a few. Not much but a little. Hopefully soon I can replicate a real photo, I am planning on doing it. You know like choosing a photo from real life and trying my best to get the same shot in GT4. I think that would be a good theme for a photocomp. Or has it already been one. Anyways the Camaro.

Hey dude, I just got your PM to check out the request you fulfilled, and I tell you I am very pleased. The shots are excellent. Great track choices, Infineon and LeMans. Excellent I love it, thank you. And as for the idea of the real life pic and trying to match it to be identical is a good idea, to be honest I was thinking about it last night and I don't think people thought of it yet. It would be nice to see how it comes out. Anyways thanks again dude. +Rep from me
 
nice! i love the effects on the camaro. the rest of the pics, specially the 300ZX and the civic, are looking good. keep it up!
 
I am glad you liked the shots. Its sure a fun car to drive around. Lots of stability and very good handling in the corners. Even with the factory setup. I added some rubber/dirt behind the front wheels on the 2 last pictures. Just because race cars are nice and shiny, but in their natural habitat they get a little dirty.

And about the matching real life photo thing. I think it would be really cool and a very good challenge. Since in GT4 the creators made the photomode so sort of in a way resembles real life photography. In real life you can't rewind time to take that awesome shot. The only thing is we can sit there for 10 hours if we would like as time is stopped to adjust the photo and angle:sly:. But I am going to take the challenge, I am not sure which car I am going to use. Heck I might do a few. Thanks. +rep for you, for the inspiration.👍

Thanks for the rep, I have a couple photos I may do of a 2002 Camaro SS.
 
Hello everyone I took these today for fun. Didn't get too many good ones today. But these are the ones I chose for today. I will probably be using a thumbnail style of posting soon. So the images arent so big and don't take so long to load on slower connections.



 
Beautiful shots man, I am loving the "motorsport.com" on the Impreza Touring Car.
 
The Subaru shot is great with the grain and all. The latest S2000 shots aren't looking so hot. The textures on the car are really nasty.
 
Thanks streetz, and I agree. That particular S2000 has some weird reflections on the front fender. But once I really noticed they were kind of icky I was already too far into taking the shots. So I thought why give up now. I don't know what I am going to add tonight. Most likely nothing unless I can get a good shot with one of these cars I am currently running.
