Which do you prefer? 1st or 2nd? and why?

1st

I like the first. The second looks static.

The second one is a bit boring, but the fake blur is just awful on the first.

Sorry but I agree ^^^^

Just do it for real! Build a cheap rig for a rolling shot or do a pan as the car drives by or shoot from another car while both are moving.

^^ me too. As a concept, the first is much better. Getting the motion blur in camera will make it more even, and therefore look more realistic.

Good shot...

I think a real blur would definitely look allot better.

Also the brake lights look like you edited them separately... they look a little too processed. They don't look natural.
If they are natural than I guess it's just me, they just grabbed my attention as looking fake.

Other than that I like the shot.

I agree with the other members, the first picture looks better - although it would look better if the blur was not fake...

As others have said, that blur in #1 looks fake, it not only detracts from the image but also makes it worse in my opinion & the standard #2 is rather bland...

I agree that #1 is more visually interesting, but do not like the fake blur.

Love the subject, however!
