How did the GT-R and Lambo fare against their competitors from Stuttgart?

Pics are good, good panning and sense of speed instilled in them.

Some neat stuff in there, but I think you need to vary your composition a bit...

Yeah, I understand the purpose of watermarks, but when it disrupts the purpose of photography... I don't know.

Your watermarks take up a rather large percentage of the pictures. And I'm guessing Crazy Nut! isn't your legal name, so there isn't much stopping anyone from joining a forum under that nick and stealing them. Maybe it's just me, but I have a hard time seeing past some watermarks sometimes. Your watermark is the foreground of the photo. You have to look at the background to see the actual photograph. Is that what you intended? The watermark being the focus and the photograph being the background?

I don't know if I'm being anal, but when I see professional's photographs, they usually place their name and copyright under the photo, so it doesn't intrude. Or they place it along the bottom edge, very small and discrete, so you really have to look to see it. Something to think about. Anyway, it's late and I need some sleep. images/smilies/tongue.gif

I understand where you coming from but i think i might have over reacted with putting such a big and bold "wartermark" on, I just got so pissed off the first time a kid photoshoped my mark out and then claimed them as his own on another forum, then the second time i decided to make it a solid mark so it can't be photoshoped out and put it in the bottom corner and a new kid decided to just crop the photo....... you can say that i am over reacting but and i think i might be but i just got so pissed off that it's happened twice images/smilies/cry.gif

That does suck, but it's almost unavoidable. You should be flattered that your photos are so good, someone would try to steal them as their own.... twice. Pretty clear indication that you have skill.

great shots. btw, no matter what you do with watermarks, it's still unavoidable that someone messes with them and tells everyone it's their own (unless it's that annoying translucent logo all over the place, which is even worse)

On a completely unrelated note : look at the cool Porsche picture I took the other day :

GFT! Do you have a high res version with a smaller watermark, would make for a perfect wallpaper.
