I had the same thought. The depth of field is either extremely shallow or it is synthesized in the digital darkroom. The pink blooms are in focus on the left but blurred on the right. It could be that the depth of field is so short that blooms on the left are in the same plane as the car?
Nice pics. |

I was wondering how your photos turn out like that. I know a tiny bit about photography but nothing I shoot comes out looking as like.. Crisp or smooth as yours. So were you shooting at f/2? Wouldn't that make the back half of the car out of focus? I'm assuming you're combining photos in post?

As much as I love technology, I don't believe there will ever be a convincing way to fake shallow DOF correctly. To ride a horse you need a real horse .

Of course, I was joking. . . we might be getting close with the iPhone, but I am sure a professional photographer such as yourself still requires a quality camera. Not to mention, well, professional skills ///AVM |

I remember years ago, when CD's first came out. The sound quality was amazing, and played on a real stereo, one the likes of today you NEVER see, oh it was bliss. And today what do people listen to music on? Trash speakers on their trash computer with their trash MP4 file cut down to be as small as possible? And the same is true with the phone and pictures. As I said, I know technology is fantastic, but a real camera with a real 200/2 can't be, and won't be faked...and nor will viewing it 7000 pixels wide on a 36" high def screen. I almost feel bad for giving you guys these pix at 1920 wide, but I must, otherwise they will show up for sale on various sites. You have my apologies for that. |

Maybe next time I go out and shoot I need to make more use of my tripod.

This looks like it could be from a Forza game. Which has my mind all screwed up lol. Because it means I can't tell video games from real life anymore. And that you take such great photos that I can't distinguish the composition from something artificially setup and made with computer graphics.

good light good composition good focus good background good processing good angle good subject = great result The only difference between me, a normal person, and top level photographer is that they play at a different level. great light great composition great focus etc... = fantastic result And the only difference between them and a video game/CGI is that the video game plays at the highest level, so... fantastic light fantastic composition fantastic focus etc... = epic result It's all about stacking goods to make a great bro, it's all we can hope for. |

Did you paint the yellow section or wrap it? That's a really interesting and different look! I was thinking of wrapping my wheels, as I've seen some guys do a black wrap of the machined sections and it turned out really well.
