I love this pic, took it of Lorin (RallyTard) yesterday:

watch out for the children!

 

IMO it would look better without the guy in there and the car is centered.

Nonetheless.. like the white and the color of the leaves. Looks like the upper half of the pic is out of focus

 

indeed many flaws.

 

It would be nice to have a car drive itself through leaves lol, but our remote controller was busted As soon as I get my photoshop back on the computer, the driver will be darkened out and the cab will be adjusted.

As for centering the car.... the background to the right would have ruined it. Plus the leaves didn't come out to the right, which would be lame. And if we had taken the picture from the right side of the street the shadowed side of the car would be the main part of the picture because of the sunlight.

Upper half of the pic is out of focus because that orange tree is 20 feet away... if you look above the front of the car, those trees are in focus.

You have room to talk and credibility judging by your pics below

I don't mind any critiquing, but don't be an *** and judging by your pics, you don't have room to be an ***.

Thanks.

 

nice pics....maybe one from the rear kicking up the leaves would have been coo too but yeah inventive

 

^yeah that would look sick.

 

ugly pictures....hahaha jk

 

the leaves are probably further back than the car is and with a smaller aperture setting, there is a shorter depth of field, resulting in the background being out of focus

 

All of your guy's pictures suck...I see no scantly clad wimmenz over your cars

 

OK. Here's the scoop. Yes the trees in the BG are out of focus. If this is the look you like (and it should be). Use a WIDE OPEN aperture... then you will exaggerate this effect. Now, there is a guy in there and yet the shot is completely static, it might as well be parked ~ use a MUCH slower shutter speed with a pan and you will feel the speed or motion..

Yes, I know of what I speak. I spent 25 years shooting and producing car ads and commercials on location!

 

pics look great

 

Hey Steven, I remember that you had a really nice landscape pic with the leaves. I want to use it for the calendar. PM me and let me know.
