not bad....i like it.

But i dont like having to click links to see your pictures.

Good shots, but I too would rather see them posted here.

I would gladly post them here but, even at 72dpi, they are too wide per the forum rules. I will not resize pics to post on different forums. This place needs to get with the program and allow larger pics. I post most of the time at Fred Miranda. I don't have to worry about the size over there. 1024 x 1024 is the limit here, which is very lame considering the wide use of larger monitors these days.

Great stuff as usual Tim!!

Probably run into you at EAA or RA.

Cheers,

Randy

Very nice pics all, enjoyed them.

Good color and good action captures, but not crazy about the tilted horizons.

upload to flicker and embed them here with the bb code set to large (1024x683)

It's enough work to process RAW files and get them uploaded to my own site. I'm not doing it twice. If you want to see it, your going to have to click it.

As for the tilted horizons, it is seen in magazines all the time. That's not why I do it though, I like it. Some don't. Either way, I'm just doing it for fun and having a good time.

I actually like the way you have use the rotation. It gives a more dynamic feel to the photos, especially since you have tilted them the same way the car is reacting.

Take this one for example. The tilt makes the car look like it is lifting a wheel a lot more than it would if the horizon was flat.

People get hung up on procedures and correctness. You dont want a bunch of perfectly level, rule of thirds shots....they get boring.

Do what works for you. In this case, the tilt works.

I agree, tilt is a matter of taste. For me, it works for some images, but images that are tilted just a little don't usually appeal to me. Maybe I'm sensitive to it because I have trouble maintaining a level horizon in my own photography.

I try to go between, boy that guy needs to straighten his horizon, and, why do I have to tilt my head all the way to the side to view this image.
