I don't think it's off-topic at all, and those are great photos! I haven't looked at all of them on Flickr, but of the ones posted here, I'm really drawn to that top Mustang shot - I'm a sucker for classic Mustangs!

Thats what i thought with that pic of the 'vette, very nice smile

If i may ask what program do you use for your tilt shift? I have been trying to use this technique with photoscape (built in tilt shift module) for a little while now, but it does not allow you to muck with the settings much and never comes across as plausible or a good effect.

The Bullitt Mustang looks great too and the screw, knew it was Laguna before even enlarging the pic smile brilliant shots thumbsup

My character somehow got all twisted up. I was playing the mission where you have to infiltrate the Golden Glow Estate and do multiple things. When I was out burning beehives and fighting I just eventually ran away to view my success from a distance. I first noticed it when I squated down on a tree trunk. Coot..the squatter../simHQ/2011

Thank you... and for some of the tile shift effect, I used Alien Skin Bokeh 2, I want the car to be like in a portrait, the center of the viewer interrest but without overdoing it... kind of a good compromise especially with my poor bridge camera (not even a DSLR! ) burnout

You could just use a tilt shift lens smile

but software is more versatile, thats for sure!



Great Car shots
