Cool - doing a background blur is really hard - trying to keep the lines of the foreground object clear. The front of the car looks good, but the roof looks like it's blurred the line a bit too much (given it's depth from the back of the car)

A fun thing to do with this photo would be to delete everything behind the fence and replace it with some real life image (sunset, forest, whatever). That could look good. Smile

Have a look at mcrow5's awesome photo tutes for some handy hints. I've found that it's good to push the exposure and/or colour and/or contrast a bit, as it seems to "grey out" a bit when going from the xbox to the pc.

they will always look different on your tv, no matter how hard you try. what you need to do, is to take a photo, and then look at it on your pc screen. see if its brighter or darker, more colourful or less, etc etc. then take another photo with the settings adjusted so that it looks better on the pc monitor (however it wont look right on your tv). it takes time, and im still yet to figure my tv out tongue

HOLY SHISTERS!

Be a while before i get that one!

Forza 3 Pictures and Videos - Page 4 Forza27

a fair bit better than the others

by **mcrow5** Tue Jan 12, 2010 12:16 pm

Skyscream360 wrote:tried on benchmark track

that spot, without doubt, is the easiest spot to get great photos in.

see here

Skyscream360 wrote:This is another try at it

better!! now all you need to do is adjust the exposure and the contrast to make some great photos. also, more angles are nice as well. Very Happy

maybe i should set up a thread for feedback from me on peoples photos?

MOAR aston!!

Skyscream - love the suspension hanging down on the airbourne shot.
Mcrow5 - that's a sexy Aston - nice one.

by Guest Tue Jan 12, 2010 4:26 pm

did a couple more shots. the dino is sooo hard to get a decent shot with cause of its really reflective paint.

relfections = win!!!

and that dino has a seriously low back end.

and heres a random thought, with all these racing comps going on, how about a photo comp (i wont enter, otherwise its unfair tongue

)

Yeah - use the reflections. Reflect some cool shapes in it. And yes - that's seriously low. It must bottom out horribly on some tracks (Maple Valley in reverse springs to mind).

The comp is not a bad idea. Would have to pick a few people (who weren't in the comp to judge). Alternatively - you could be the judge mcrow5?

Chris (OD) - decent photographer in real life, but haven't really got into it in Forza yet. Smile

yeah i can be judge, or we could put it to a people's choice, would be fairer that way. if theres enough support for it ill make a thread.

and get ready for a massive photo blitz tomorrow. gonna do a shoot tonight with a monaro, on the ring, as well as some v8 supercars love.

also, if anyone wants a specific car photographed, shoot me a pm or post in here.
