This one I did clone out his tape numbers on his door and put a tint to the sky.

[Heck]

Nice shots, and great subjects!

 

[Carlos Cané]

Nice photos! I really liked the last one!

 

[DSLR noob]

MAZDA RX-7! I love that picture! I autocross my Rx-7 too! Awesome pics, much better than what I could get (no lenses over 50mm.....yet)

That rx7 has a ls1 350 worked under the hood. its a power house.

ugh sorry... killed the mood
I HATE HATE HATE rotary to V8 swaps.

(but to stay on topic, the photos are still absolutely brilliant and I know how hard it is to get shots like this of moving cars)

LS1 swap is as good as any. The LS1 and T56 gearbox only weighs 62 pounds more than the 13B and 5 speed, and it's still mounted low. But I gotta give props to anyone that runs a twinrotor, I don't think I'll EVER figure out how they work!
Nice to see a Cayman and an old school 5.0 thrashed on an auto-x, most guys back home stick with their miatas.
I know I don't have much in the way of advice or comment in this thread, but it had cars as a topic so I couldn't help it, lol.

 

[DSLR noob]

It's ok, and I know if any V8, an LS1 would be the best, but you buy an Rx-7 for it's engine, it's lineage, it's uniqueness. Don't turn it into every other sports car in America(and seemingly by BMW and Audi's actions, Europe).

You didnt do a very good job on shot 4 cloning out the door decals and the sky tinting makes the photo look un natural imo.

Keep at it though,.

What were your shutter speeds and aperture numbers on 3 and 4?

 

[Heck]

What were your shutter speeds and aperture numbers on 3 and 4?

#3 f/5.6, 1/250, ISO 100


#4 f/5.3, 1/250, ISO 100


And yeah the clone was a noob job but thats ok cuz Im a noob lmao. Im going to take some time and do a few other cars to see if I can improve.

 

[Heck]

This is the shot before # 4 above so you can see the numbers I had to take out. they were in the middle of the dark and light blue point on the car.
