damn, i can't decide on just 4. i like the celica one for sure. are any of those photoshopped? or is it all shutter speed and other camera effects and what-not?


The Celica shot is photoshopped in the sense that it's two different exposures combined into one. And some of the photos have been adjusted for color, contrast, sharpness, etc. in Photoshop, but the light effects and such in the rest of the photos are the result of camera settings.

2 and 4 are the best IMO. I also like 3.

i know your trying to do the right thing for your motor, but this is one of those times where you should just trust the guys who have had their swaps for a while and have done a ton of research into this.

reasons for not picking 6:

1) even though it looks really nice and you put a lot of hard work into it; The pictures looks too easy to take. Most people will think you just took the picture, but they dont know it requires the suction cup tripod and two images.

2) its too car specific, most people will just think, "its a car... and?"


what type of crowd of people are we dealing with? college students? old farts? artistic people? average joe?

I think Bigfoot is blurry, that's the problem. It's not the photographer's fault. Bigfoot is blurry. And that's extra scary to me, because there's a large, out-of-focus monster roaming the countryside.

Yeah, I think you're right. My mom was kind of confused when I showed her and told her it took 10 hours of work...she didn't realize it was moving at first. laugh.gif However, the exhibition is being judged by a single juror from Seattle who is a photographer, so I'm sure he'd realize that it wasn't an easy picture to take.

It is also car specific, and though there's no theme for the exhibition, I think you're right that most people would think that. What surprised me was that the Celica picture was the one that won best of class at the last exhibition/gallery I entered.

If I was a judge the 3 most important things are creativity, originality, and effort.

I like night shots, most of the photos I take are at night, so I am partial to the moving lights photos. Then again I try to be completely objective. The truck shot I like because its different.
