Cars In The Park Photos

[ol]

Hello again,
I've just been playing with a few photos i took at Cars in the Park last weekend and thought i'd share them.
I'm still learning photoshop techniques, so any input would be appreciated.
I think i've used too much blur and black outlines, but as i said i'm still learning.
Thanks for looking:

Nice. Like the Ferrari badge, and the sky in the bandstand shot is quite unusual.

I love the processing you have done. Looks great.

My one comment would be to use the straighten tool - some of the shots are slightly off horizontal / vertical.

IMHO either snap them straight, or twist them around a bit more to make the effect "deliberate" - at the moment you seem to suffer with my fault of "not holding the camera level" - I found it easier when I turned the grid lines on in the viewfinder.

Hope that's OK - keep up the good work

They look great, love some of the cobra shots and the orange on that exige is sublime.

Well done.

Joesnow - Thanks mate, apreciate it! To be honest i put the sky into the bandstand photo as it was a really drab dull picture and i was practicing trying to 'spice' it up a bit!

Many thanks Chris, having had a look at the photographs on your site i really apreciate the advice! You know, i hadn't really noticed that they weren't level, most of the were 'shot from the hip,' as it was raining and i took about a million photos. Putting the grid lines on the screen is a good idea though. Thanks again!

TooHuge - Thanks very much! The orange Exige is very photogenic, but i added a few layers of orange to make it stand out a bit more, and lowered the colour levels for the background.
