1 tuff z Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 the photographer at the 07 z convention heard my tires complain as i entered this corner too hot-he quickly turned, pressed the shutter button and didn't release it until i had completed the turn. the pic you see is many images all compiled into one shot to create this sequence. my plan is to have it enlarged and framed then find a cool place to hang it...

cygnusx1 Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 That is a priceless shot. It's one of those shots that comes along once in a lifetime or so. Kudos to the guy behind the camera and David, the car looks awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pete280z Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 Very, very cool. Can any PS experts take a guess at how many hours went into the post-processing for something like this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1 tuff z Posted April 18, 2008 Author Share Posted April 18, 2008 Very, very cool. Can any PS experts take a guess at how many hours went into the post-processing for something like this? a guess of 8-10 hours would be in the ballpark, this from steve [mr. photographer].

pete280z Posted April 18, 2008 Share Posted April 18, 2008 I had a hunch it was a significant effort. Well worth it though. I can't get over how cool that is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrumpetRhapsody Posted April 18, 2008 Share Posted April 18, 2008 I'm sure it took quite a bit of phototweaking. Splice together like a panorama, then crop out the bits of the cars to make them overlap like that. VERY cool effect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
240swapped Posted April 18, 2008 Share Posted April 18, 2008 ok, i misunderstood. thought it was a single panoramic photo with the extended exposure deal.meh, not a photographer, again, lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeffer949 Posted April 18, 2008 Share Posted April 18, 2008 very cool pic. but to me if you where sliding. wouldnt you be steering into it? your tires are pointing all the same through out the whole thing... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
240swapped Posted April 18, 2008 Share Posted April 18, 2008 very cool pic. but to me if you where sliding. wouldnt you be steering into it? your tires are pointing all the same through out the whole thing... throttle play can do just the same thing as countersteer if you're any good.

1 tuff z Posted April 18, 2008 Author Share Posted April 18, 2008 jeffer949, if you look realllllllly closely you'll see my front tires pointed slightly to the right in a countersteer as the rear was pitched a bit to the right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
