+1.

Totally agree with you, andRo.

This week I will not participate, because I'm finishing the RP 1st and 2nd addon. At last!!

Next week, of course.

Peace and respect, please. Finally If I make the analisis, it will be bad. So is better to end this situation.

Cheers and good luck to all.

TOmba(FIN)

Special for you in English!

Are you a screwed up moron or something? I did write in other topic that I was an amateur, not a professional. And all I said about your picture I said from an amateur’s point of view. You seem to want to equate me with a pro and then criticize me for it. Where is logic here?
BTW, if you want a professional’s opinion, here it is. Well, you made me. I asked a real pro (artist, photographer and designer) to take a look at your picture, here is what exactly he said:
1. "How can he criticize others having made such a piece of shit himself?"
2. The car is not moving, motion is seen only on the wheels, the rest is standing.
3. The reflection doesn’t even remind of asphalt road.
4. The real rain can be seen everywhere! Even if it’s light and even if you mastered the “motion blur” filter.
5. The rain in the picture goes only between the spectator and the car.

So, you'd better go to a bar, drink some vodka and relax. Although I'm sure you don't know how to drink, the same as you don’t know how to impartially criticize other people’s work.

The absolute truths, do not exist and I believe on the respect to the people in all cases.

At night I will make an analisis of your post. I'm a professional, also, and I worked with professional photographers. So, I understand a bit about this case. But I'm not agree with your friend. Of course, your friend/mate makes a opinion favorable to you.

As a advance, In the atmosphere, is posible all conditions and there are strange things. But, there are a basis. Light conditions.

There are diference between the eye and the objetive of the camera. Much times we edit the pic as we see the things. As I mentioned HDR. The eye, makes it automatically and the camera depends of the exposition, obturation, etc.

Final entry...
Only original screenshot :heyjoe67_ferrari:

p.s. Excuse.
Has corrected low pic

Nice pic.

I see HDR technique in the pic. "High Dynamic range". Interesting but that technique is more artistic than realistic. I'm sure you know that.

Anyway, very good as always.

Quote from logitekg25 :

i did mean that in a positive way, honest

good luck, take your time, get some rest, and your family and job come before this

Thank you, again, as always.

Quote from maxiim :

FINAL ENTRY

My 2nd rain edit. Did i do it any better this time?

Very good edit.

You can look for brushes with rain style.

Anyway I understand on the pic that is a raining day with with clear lightning conditions. The sun appears in the clear while is raining.(and that is real because there are the cases).

So, in these conditions there are more glow-effect on the drops of rain and wet ground.

Sure next time will be better. As usual.

Thank you Joseph for the photomode one week more.

Please, update the date: "7th May".

Good theme. Interesting.

Cheers and good luck to all.

Congrats andRo.



Nice competition Skiper.

Amazing comments, I really like all (Yeah, ALL). THANK YOU ALL.

Well. There are diferent situations:

1. The camera follows the car. As Lotus Elise pic.

2. Camera follows the car and is more slow(if the camera is in the car). The camera rotates on its axis, following the car. Turns slow.

3. The camera is fixed, at middle distance, following the car. And close angle.

I made the case number 1. But I made the edit as fast as posible. So I didn't thinking about blur. I only see if the blur angle is correct for the car(imagining if the car as a train).

The case number 2 is really more near. Because the angle of the blur is exactly that. The camera turns on its axis and make a blurring distortion of the scenary. Well, just when the camera turns slow. But I repeat, I was thinking on the case number one,hehehe.

The case number 3, makes the motion blur in the same angle in everything inside of the pic. If the bottom is 30º on the top is the same 30 º.( Motion blur angle ).

I do not put effort in all the pic really, because I only focused all the effort on the part that appears on the header. Seeing these amazing comments, and Flame's analysis (Amazing). Sure I'll put more effort next time, hehehehe.



I have improved the shadow of the car and the shadow on rear wheel (Last update):

Again, my best wishes for the Latvian Community.

To me is correct use external pics to help some users.

Only respect the rules, posting the original/real pic, and,person who votes, judge if his work deserves his vote.

Same for the textures. But I think is not necesary to put the link.

well,... In my case, I'm the author of my own textures.

Quote from DevilDare :

OK then. Lynce used his Revolution addon to take the screenshot. Why isnt that considered as a "mod" then?

This surprised me, but for bad.

If you'll notice, many users use textures en High resolution. RP April 7th and August 28th (even textures from other authors, not only mine).

If we considered as a mods, we ned to make a revision of a lot of Photomode weeks.

I used a new reflection texture (RP July 1st 2010).

Quote from skiper :

All, All Thanks ))

Even to thank yourself. It seems that you have no security in yourself if you get to the point of voting for you. I think so, you do not give to be worth your work.

I think you have talent for the pics, but that detail is sad.

Obviously is my opinion and a constructive criticism for you without bad intention.

Quote from Tazka :

Had hard time choosing between andro and lynce. Couldn't vote both of them so i gave lynce a vote cos he was few votes behind!

Thanks as always, my friend. But I think is this week, andRo deserves to win. Next time, I'll put more effort.

Go andRo!

Quote from maxiim :

I dont use to do it eather man, one of the first time im doing it tho. Next time ill make pure lfs sexyness ;D

Sure will be a nice pic as usual.

Quote from lukelfs :

Ohh, sorry , I got those mixed up lol

Hehehehehe. I thought so. Don't worry.


Anyway, I'm glad by the level of the current competition because I like all entries. High level. I miss some participants as taavi, tazka, Furiously-Fast and JJ72 ( and even some that I don't remember his nicks).

Good luck to all.

Quote from lukelfs :

Neither does Lynce's edit, even though he did post it in the entry thread

I do not use external images in my editions.

And I changed my final entry under Joseph's permission. Doesn't to remove or add external pics. Only to work on the tarmac, sky and bridge from scratch. I only post the link to the inspiration, not a image who I use to put on the pic. A reference. (I added a link to the tutorial to make clouds from scratch).
Cheers, brother.

My vote goes to andRo. Amazing edit.

JJ72 and tazka.

Quote from logitekg25 :

lynce your edits are amazing, and your in-game shots are amazing. you make lfs look as good as it can look. to put this into better words, its like saying if you get something that smells good in a room, then you get something that smells bad in a room, but you mask it with something that smells good; the room without anything bad in it smells better, but the room with something bad in it smels as good as it can with the bad thing still in it.

long thing short, you do the best you can with lfs even though edits may be better

Emm... thank you. As always you have nice words. I remember, I'm open for criticisms, comments, flames, etc.

Since February 16th I'm working on these textures, respecting the size from RP April 7th, but increasing the definition, not the size.

I'm putting a lot of effort for improve of the experience of the LFS user voluntary. Is free as I said.

Here there isn't cheat. I really enjoy making this. I recognize I'm very tired because I work every days to comply the date (3-5 hours per day depending on the day). I see reflections and skies when I dream,hehehehe.

Also, I got restlessness to improve the latest work that I made, so that can delay the development. Always is better, of course. The quality of this work is much better than the first RP. Of course I read the criticisms over the first work for take it in count. I don't like work for nothing. I know these paragraphs I wrote them a month ago. It is just a reminder.

I would like finish the Rp as soon as possible. But at the pace I go, is better. All is a balance. Fast work = bad quality.

Well, thanks as always to all.

See you on next newsletter.


Spanish._

Emm ... Gracias. Como siempre tienes buenas palabras. Recuerdo que estoy abierto a críticas, comentarios, llamas, etc

Desde 16 de febrero estoy trabajando en estas texturas, respetando el tamaño de la RP 07 de abril, pero el aumentando la definición, no el tamaño.

Estoy poniendo mucho esfuerzo para mejorar la experiencia del usuario EPA voluntaria. ¿Es libre como ya he dicho.

Aquí no hay trucos. Me gusta mucho hacer esto. Reconozco que estoy muy cansado porque trabajo todos los días para cumplir la fecha (3-5 horas diarias dependiendo del día). Veo las reflexiones y los cielos cuando sueño, hehehehe.

Además, tengo la inquietud de mejorar el último trabajo que hice, por lo que pueden retrasar el desarrollo. Siempre es mejor, por supuesto. La calidad de este trabajo es mucho mejor que el primer RP. Por supuesto, he leído las críticas sobre el primer trabajo para tener en cuenta. No me gusta trabajar por nada. Sé que estos párrafos los escribí hace un mes. Es sólo un recordatorio.

Me gustaría terminar el Rp tan pronto como sea posible. Pero, al ritmo que voy, es mejor. Todo es un equilibrio. trabajo rápido = mala calidad.

Bueno, gracias como siempre a todos.

Nos vemos el próximo boletín.

Only one detail.

The post 554 and 561, as always, unedited photos.

A guy told me: "You make better edits."

Nice music and very good action-clips. The syncronization encourage follow watching this video at the end.

I really enjoyed watching this video.

Nothing more to say. Keep up the good work.

Holy crap Lynce, too damn good work! You should be one of the developers for sure. To me you are already one
You've made LFS so much better with your eye candy textures!

Thank you, brother. You are one of my favourite artist. Post number two of this thread.

The Fern Bay Landscape is the composition from 5 real life photos. It needs over 5 hours of work to implement all and make some effects to implement atmospheric characteristics for adapt to the three illuminations (Clear day, Dusk overcast and Sunset cloudy).

Quote from ImportFantasy :

Cheers mate!

Finally, thanks to René:



Even in 10º angle, you can take nice photos watching the landscape as a background. (The current photo 22,6º).

Cheers.
