quick suggestion, try making your subject not to centered.
have you heard of the rule of thirds, by chance?

yes I have, I should of thought of that more when I was cropping

Here, off centered abit, your eyes tend to look NOT in the center, but to the left or right.

My dog was just giving me an evil eye while I was sittin on the comp, so I had to take a pic

 

[got traction]

 

[peter]

[r0yal]

oh man, that pic is SICK! did you really take that?

 

[r0yal]

peter, for your shots,were you just standing still? if so.. how did you get the motion, with the car being in focus.

96 DX HATCH
unless you want your photos saved and claimed as someone elses. I suggest you put something to stamp them as yours.

I dunno, they're not good enough to where someone will copy them

oh sure, when 96dxhatch does it, all the sudden its cool

Damn those are old never saw the "56K rand0m pics" thread though.


Here's the reason I started using rectangular pics. I took these 2 pics one night, and I hated how the thing that really grabbed your eye were the rocks.

So I cropped them out.

Then I took a pic of a friends EP3...and hated how the road took up so much space in the picture

So I cropped it out.

Then I got hooked

 

[r0yal]

the pic of your friends EP3, would have looked even better, if you took the shot how it was cropped, but more sky. *if you understand*

yeah I was standing still, I was just panning. I need to practice some more, becuase for every picture that turned out right 7-8 were blurry or too still, its trying to find that shutter speed that will let you capture the background blurry, while still having the car in focus.

Hmmm, nice... what were your approximate settings for your shots? 1/80 th ?

*if you understand*

yes, more sky less road
I tried, but focus went from the car to the sky. So car and similar dark areas were then black while sky was bright. Oh well, still came out alright so nothing to complain about on my end Just have to get better

yeah I think most were around 1/80 th. aperature around f/5.6
