Second shot is a corker. :clap:

:canon:

[RickMezza]

:agree: the 2nd one is great, you must have been very close though :eek:

[pswillies]

Another vote for the second one :thumbs:

yeah rather, but I had a bit of zoom on it to get it looking that close

Cracking shots all but #1

What did you try to do with it?:thinking:

Not sure what you mean there?

Funny, I didn't like #2 as it looks like faked blur (not that I think it is fake).

My pick would be #3 - like the real sense of speed.

[antonroland]

I really don't mean this in a nasty way but your 1st shot looks real spooky...

Tecnically I would say it is way underexposed,

Composition-wise it doesn't do anything for me either...

The boxes in the foreground are distracting.

All I can think of when I look at this image is that it forms part of a story board for a gangster movie or some 3rd rate thriller where someone is about to get hijacked or shot. Maybe some clandestine meet and exchange is going down...:thinking:

On the positive side I think your number 3 is absolutely fantastic panning!!

Not an easy shot to get the way you did it :thumbs: :thumbs:

Cheers for your comments :). The 2nd picture is 100% real, nothing in the shots has been altered or enhanced, even I was surprised when I looked at it!

It’s interesting you say that it’s spooky as I wanted a sort of dark and mysterious kind of feel to it. Perhaps the "Dark Side" of Japanese car culture?

I know what you mean about the boxes, they are annoying; thankfully I chopped them off when I came to use that image!

Good feedback :thumbs:

I would disagree, as the whole car isnt sharp.

None of these are fantastic imo, but given the equipment you are using, its good work. :)

~2 and the last for me, not keen on the first but not sure why :shrug:

[Kosta]

Bloody Jap Crap!

I love the picture of the Datsun and Honda.... symbolises undergrounf street racing in a strange kind of way.

[SLR Andy]

Thanks kosta, just hoping that no-one thinks i'm trying to promote drink driving looking at those boxes :thinking:

[Lofty]

Perhaps it's just me (and i'm no expert believe me) :shake: lol but perhaps shot number 1 would work better with the cars left in colour and the background in monochrome??????? :thinking: plus i think that the civic looks lost in the background :shrug: just my opinions though for what they are worth :p
And number just 2 doesnt work for me either :shrug:

But i do like the drifting shot :thumbs: :D

As stated above though i am no expert but i do no what i like :p :lol:

Interesting idea, i'll have a look at trying that! :thumbs:


But i do like the drifting shot :thumbs: :D


Cheers, i'll see if i can get any better ones from this season :)
